Location

Alexander Lodge is situated on a picturesque, tree-lined avenue just a two-minute walk from the clifftop and blue-flag award-winning beaches. The hotel offers views of Hengistbury Head, the Isle of Wight, and Old Harry Rock. It is also within a short, level walk to the local coffee houses, restaurants, and shops along Southbourne Grove.

Rooms

The lodge offers four guest rooms, including three doubles and one single, all featuring newly refurbished en-suites. Each room is equipped with a flat-screen TV and tea-making facilities, along with complimentary Faith in Nature toiletries. The largest room, Pakenham, accommodates up to three guests, with a private balcony providing an outdoor retreat.

Dining

Breakfast is included in the room rates and is served between 8 am and 9 am, featuring a full English breakfast made with locally sourced ingredients. Options for vegetarians and vegans are also available alongside a selection of cereals, Greek yogurt, and fresh fruit. An earlier breakfast can be arranged upon request.

Parking and Facilities

Ample free off-road parking is available, along with unrestricted parking on the road and clifftop. For guests arriving with bicycles, secure storage is provided at the back of the property. A communal dining room is available for guest use throughout the day, with a fridge stocked with fresh water and milk.

“Alexander Lodge, with its Edwardian charm on a quiet Southbourne street, feels immediately welcoming. Breakfast is a highlight, made with local ingredients and tailored to individual needs, while the rooms are spotless and thoughtfully equipped, right down to the Love Hearts. I appreciate the hotel's dedication to sustainability, from the refillable toiletries to the recycled paper, which makes it a particularly attractive option.”
