Tara is a wonderful host. Very welcoming and friendly. Her house is always clean with a beautiful garden close to Bournemouth town center and shops.

Everything was as promised, and Tara plus family are excellent hosts! The premises are beautiful, the area pleasantly quiet, and the beach is no more than a 10-minute walk, so it is ideal for a summer stay under good weather. Many thanks from Pavlos and Marily!

We stayed in the large triple room, with good beds and enough closets for your clothes. There’s a washbasin in the room, but the shower is in the hallway and has to be shared with other people.
You can make your own breakfast in the morning.
The house is situated in a nice neighbourhood. The sandy beach and the sea are a 10 minutes walk from the house. A walk to the city centre takes you about 20 minutes along the beach.
We have two points of criticism. The kitchen was always dirty and not tidy. Tara and David are very busy running a business, other than homestay, and have therefore very little time for their quests.January 2018
great place to stay

I enjoyed staying at Tara's home, it was easily accessible from the Bournemouth International Centre conference venue, it was in a safe and quiet part of Bournemouth, and Tara was helpful, welcoming and conscientious. I would definitely recommend her as a host to people staying in this part of Bournemouth.
