Poole weekend
12th November 2011
Recently a friend kindly gave us a voucher for an overnight stay somewhere on the English coast. We decided to go to Poole on the Dorset Coast as its relatively close ( a mere 3 ½ hr drive!) and somewhere we haven’t been too before.
The quayside was just wonderful – lots of interesting shops to browse, including the famous Poole Pottery and a really bustling harbour. It was a lovely place to spend an afternoon and have fish and chips for lunch (and they were the best fish & chips I’ve had for a while!)
The bed & breakfast we stayed in was also a real find; called the White House (http://www.whitehousebedandbreakfast.co.uk/) the house is architecturally stunning and not only was our room beautifully presented (with Lush products in the bathroom – and a luxurious feather quilt –may fave!) but there was also an abundance of very yummy cake! Then to top the day off, we had a stunning meal at Corkers Restaurant overlooking the Quay. Once again, I was really spoilt and had the best lobster ever followed by a very decadent meringue, raspberry and cream concoction – it was just heavenly! OK I’ll stop with the food talk – I did actually do some photography ☺
