town is regarded as one of England's premier sea side resorts with
its long safe, sandy and clean beaches ideal for everyone from small
children to grand parents and all those in between.
Bournemouth has many attractions from
beautiful parks and gardens, walks along the cliff tops and
promenade or see one of the top line acts or shows at the

What is 'bed and breakfast' accommodation?
The classic form of holiday accommodation in
the UK is 'bed and breakfast' or B&B. As its name suggests bed
and breakfast is simply a rate where a hotel or guest house will
offer their guests accommodation for the night with the added bonus
of a breakfast meal the following morning.
At the Clarendon Lodge, we provide our
guests with the complete bed and breakfast service by offering a
high standard of accommodation accompanied by our traditional home
cooked English breakfast and range of fruit and cereals (Vegetarians
and other needs also catered for - please contact use for details).
Who are Liz and Roger Bickle?
Liz and Roger a relatively new to the hotel
trade having only been proprietors of the Clarendon Lodge for a few
years. Before that they were both hard working teachers from
Morecambe in Lanacashire in the north west of England. Having seen
both of their children leave for University they decided to take the
gamble of swapping their regular income for the warm sunshine of the
south coast and move to Bournemouth to start their own business and
open the Clarendon Lodge Hotel.
Having taken the plunge to completely change
their lifestyles and location, Liz and Roger now aim to put their
hard work and energy into providing a high standard of accommodation
for their guests. With this in mind their principle aim is now to
help their guests have a wonderful relaxing and comfortable holiday
by providing all their accommodation needs.
