I had an outstanding experience with Darrin and Chi! Their place is beautiful and very clean and tidy. They were super helpful hosts and made me feel part of the household straight away. Chi's cooking was marvellous. I can't wait to stay again!

This was my first Mr B&B. Darrin and Chi made me so welcome. Their home is in a beautiful location in Bournemouth close to parks through which you can walk to the seafront or over to the shops and restaurants in Westbourne. The Hideaway is just that: a little hideaway with a beautifully landscaped discreet garden. I was unable to go to the beaches as I had a fractured ankle but the boys recommended me some lovely days out. Chi's breakfasts are very hearty (no need for lunch!). I'll be back :)

Myself and a friend stayed at this b and b hosted by darrin and chi and all i have to say is brilliant!! The location, the price and b and b itself was amaziing i could not fault it. Darrin and Chi are excellent hosts they look after the house and everything in it with care attention which is very evident at my stay. The bedroom was big and spaceous with a lovely mattress was so comfy had some brilliant sleeps, the bathroom was big and very clean too. Breakfast was amazing and very well presented. The outside area was clean and very nice to look at. Parking and access to the b and b is very easy and simple... the b and b itself is close to the center of town and the beach we walked alot and glad we did as there were some beautiful parks to walk through too. Darrin and chi were very informative and gave recommendations to go too i was very impressed with all the detail provided. All in all an excellent b and b with great hosts, if you ever get the chance please consider this place as you will not be dissappointed!! Thanks darrin and chi i will very much be returning and will also recommend this b and b to friends family alike!

I'd learned about Studtland Beach from a friend and I decided to check it out. Having recently been "converted" to naturism, I was looking forward to experiencing what it'd be like to be naked not only at the beach, but also while lodging. Let me tell you: it's great! Darrin and Chi are great hosts. They made me feel at home from the moment I arrived till when I left. In the morning, I enjoyed a home cooked breakfast and the hosts joined me, which was a welcome experience: they shared tips and tricks about what to do in Bournemouth. My room, as well as the entire home, is immaculately clean. My mother would approve, even if she may not approve of walking naked through the house...but that's a whole different story. Overall, I can highly recommend staying with Chi and Darrin. They are truly great hosts. Oh...and Studtland Beach is worth the rave!

Perfection achieved in every aspect; booking in at The Hideaway isn’t so much about finding a good place to stay but more about being accepted into the house and lives of two genuinely lovely people and feeing instantly at home. Darrin and Chi have crafted modern, stylish and comfortable accommodation for their guests. The bedroom is spotlessly clean, as is the entire house, and there is a calm and relaxing outside space to enjoy. It is very private and not overlooked at all. Breakfasts comprise delicious food in generous portions expertly cooked by Chi. No two day’s menu are the same and he is very open to requests. Dietary requirements and preferences are given full consideration. Breakfast is real a treat! It really was a wrench having to leave The Hideaway but I will definitely be returning. (Regarding logistics, the fundamentals of booking accommodation online are handled with meticulous accuracy; communication is clear and timely with responses to messages being delivered rapidly. On arrival Darrin ensures maps and local information are made available and any questions about the area are answered.)

A fantastic B&B stay in Bournemouth! The hosts were incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home. We had lovely chats with them and other guests. Our spacious room and bathroom was spotless. Breakfasts were delicious and thoughtfully prepared. The B&B sits in a peaceful, charming neighbourhood. You can visit stunning spots like Studland Bay, Old Harry Rocks, Corfe Castle, the New Forest National Park and more. For those willing to venture a bit further, Stonehenge and the Cerne Abbas Giant are just about an hour's drive away. Easy parking - clear communication, highly recommend!

It was good to re-visit Darren & Chi and stay with them in their lovely home, and catch up. Chilled and explored Bournemouth. Hope to be back again.

I had a wonderful weekend stay at Chi & Darrin's, their BNB is immaculate, spotlessly clean and very tidy, I can not fault their attention to detail to looking after their guests. They made me feel so welcome, nothing was to much trouble for them, I actually felt like I was staying with friends rather than the owners of a BnB. I will definitely be returning there again, thank you guys for a great weekend...
