Check the hospital site and your travel needs

Confirm the appointment or ward location directly with University Hospitals Dorset: Poole Hospital and the Royal Bournemouth Hospital are different sites. The Mariners is at 24 Market Street, not on the hospital campus. Use the hospital’s travel guide to plan the journey and parking rather than assuming a doorstep or guaranteed journey time.

Consider whether the house suits everyone

The property has several flights of stairs and is not step-free. It may be unsuitable for recovery stays or guests with limited mobility. The central Old Town location can also be lively, especially at weekends. Please discuss practical access and sleeping needs before booking; the accommodation does not provide care, medical equipment or clinical support.

A shared routine during a family visit

Two lounges, a kitchen and four bedrooms give a family somewhere to eat and spend time together away from visiting hours. The maximum is eight overnight guests, with shared double beds and bunks in the standard layout. Tell us the dates you need and ask about any possible extension, while recognising that further availability cannot be guaranteed.
