Just as beautiful an apartment as the photos suggest and excellent communication from the management team. Comfortable bed and great blackout curtains. Lovely location in a quiet cul-de-sac. (The neighbours played some music in the early evening that we could hear since it was hot enough for us to have the windows open, but it had stopped by the time we were putting the kids to bed.) There was even more provided for our 10 month old and 3 year old than expected! (In addition to the high chair, selection of plastic cutlery/crockery, toys, games, books and travel cot we were expecting, there was a non-slip bath mat, bath toys, bathroom step, and toilet seat insert, plus the cot was fully made up and we were provided with a full set of beach towels.) Racking my brains to think of anything I've ever been provided with in a hotel but didn't have at The Hideaway, all I can come up with is a box of tissues! 4 stars not 5 for check-in because we were asked to wait outside for a bit on arrival while the host checked the cleaners had left everything perfect. Otherwise can't find fault. Will definitely book again next time we visit our friend in Poole.
