Choose the activity, then check the conditions

Paddleboarding, wing foiling, efoiling and guided jet ski outings involve different equipment, experience and launch arrangements. Our Sports & outdoors page includes real local photographs and links to providers. Ask each operator what is running for your dates, who can take part and whether tuition or hire is appropriate. Photographs illustrate activities, not an included package.

Stay in Old Town, travel to the water

The house is a short walk from Poole Quay, but your lesson or session may meet elsewhere, including the Sandbanks area. Check the exact meeting point before booking accommodation. Weather can change plans, so leave room for harbour walks, restaurants or a quieter day at the house rather than relying on every session going ahead.

Equipment and accommodation are separate

The house sleeps a maximum of eight in four bedrooms. Ask before bringing boards, wet equipment or extra vehicles; dedicated kit storage and drying facilities are not promised. No lessons, equipment hire, safety cover or transport are included in the accommodation price. Arrange the activity with its provider and confirm your stay separately with us.

YOUR WHOLE-HOUSE STAY

Know the details before you book.

The Mariners is at 24 Market Street, Poole Old Town. Standard beds are two superkings, a double and a bunk bed across four bedrooms. Requests for alternative sleeping arrangements must be agreed in advance and never increase the eight-guest maximum.

Whole-house rates start from £275 per night September–April and £385 per night May–August. July–August Friday and Saturday nights are £595; Christmas, New Year, Easter and bank holidays are quoted separately. Cleaning and laundry are £160 per booking. One dog may stay by prior agreement for £30. Ask about discounts for stays of more than seven nights.

The booking deposit is 25%, with the balance due six weeks before arrival, or full payment for bookings made within six weeks. A separate £300 refundable damage deposit applies. Your full quote, dates, any additional services and cancellation terms must be agreed before payment. An enquiry does not secure dates.

Check-in is from 3pm and checkout by 10am. The house has stairs, one parking space on request and a central location that can be lively. Parties and events are not permitted.
