Bournemouth is not just a holiday resort, but it does very well as one!

Anyone coming to Bournemouth or Poole?

Hello :) Ah if only I had discovered this earlier! Myself and my OH got cheap flights so decided to come and visit (id previously only been to monkeyworld and Bath in 1979!!). I loved the little towns of Dorset but was disappointed with Bournemouth. Are there any quirky places to go to that make Bournemouth a place for me to go back to?

I’m not a fan of Bournemouth myself - too many drunks. Poole is fun and lots of great pubs in the country….

Yeah it seemed to be full of the, how do I say this to be polite, get drunk in the sun brigade - not that Im against that, but not cheap lager! - cries into her chardonnay ;-)

Yup, pretty much sums up Bournemouth!

oh noes i am indeed an alcohol snob.

No, Bourmouth has the alter ego of an alcoholic’s paradise!

Ladies,although I have not been back to my old stomping ground in a while,I trained in Bournemouth in the 80’s and it was a sedate seaside resort then which was just beginning to push itself as a younger resort.
I take it from your comments that it now suffers in much the same way as Newquay and my beloved Torquay from the Wayne and Waynetta brigade pre-wedding and couldn’t afford Prague or Ibiza!
Shame,I am bringing my beloved down there to a uni-reunion in October and staying at the Roundhouse Hotel.

Roundhouse is OK, somewhat close to the redlight….

Indeed TQ2boyz, unfortunately it suffers from a bit of oh im not going back there. Roundhouse near the redlight you say, gawd if i knew that….

I’ve gotta go to BM monthly for work and thought I’d check out this site for inside info. Findings: pretty much zero! What’s all this lollollol stuff - does it have some special meaning for locals?

Laugh out loud. Poor emmar was apalled. Where do you work in Bournemouth?

hi I grew up in Bournemouth but I occasionally go back, so this is what attracted me to this site. Christchurch nextdoor is for the 'quaint’ shop and ice-cream brigade, although it has a couple of good restaurants. its a good antidote to the busy shopping in Bournemouth and you can go and sit by the river when you’ve finished. I know that this is the Bournemouth site, but I can’t imagine Christchurch ever getting it’s own.
