Select rooms have Victorian roll-top baths. Guests also get a complimentary bottle of water.

Dining at Arbor

The hotel has Arbor, an award-winning restaurant, with Head Chef Andy Hilton preparing meals. The menu features local, fresh, and organic food, sourced from producers with high animal welfare standards. The bar stocks organic spirits and soft drinks. Guests can try the fresh gazpacho, cured mackerel, local lamb shoulder, and pineapple coconut cheesecake, paired with local, biodynamic wines. The àlacarte menu is £35 per person with a glass of English prosecco.

Events and Gatherings

The Green House provides spaces for meetings, conferences, and celebrations. Spaces accommodate from 10 to 70 people. Meeting rooms offer boardroom layouts for up to 24 or theatre-style layouts for 40 and 30 delegates. The terrace serves as an area for informal business gatherings. The hotel offers a Green Hut, suitable for family-style meals. The professional Events team guides the options for tributes and celebrations.

Location and Access

The Green House is in Bournemouth, a 15-minute walk from Bournemouth Central and 5 km from Bournemouth Airport. It is situated between Dorset's beaches and the New Forest. Nearby attractions include Lower Gardens (1 km), Boscombe Chine Gardens (2 km), and St Peter's Church (0.5 km). Guests can explore Beaulieu, Corfe Castle, and Brownsea Island.

Services and Sustainability

The Green House focuses on minimizing its environmental impact. It uses solar panels and a CHP system for efficient water heating. The furniture is made from wood in sustainably-managed forests, and the hotel uses Farrow & Ball eco paint. The external lighting is controlled by presence detection and light level sensors. The hotel provides free EV charge points and refill water stations.

“The hotel strikes a satisfying balance; bedrooms are generously proportioned, the beds are remarkably comfortable, and thoughtful touches like fresh milk elevate the experience. I appreciate the conscientious staff, the restaurant's quality, and the prime location near the beach. It's a place where you can unwind and feel genuinely cared for.”
