Frequently asked questions.
What amenities do you have?
Each apartment is thoughtfully styled and well-equipped to make your stay as comfortable (and Instagrammable) as possible. You'll find:
A fully equipped kitchen with oven, hob, microwave, fridge, kettle and toaster
Smart TV and fast Wi-Fi
Plush bedding and soft towels
A modern bathroom with essentials to get you started
Hairdryer (so you can pack light)
Iron and ironing board
Stylish boho touches throughout
Can I sleep an extra person?
Most of our studio and one-bedroom apartments are designed for two, but we can always add a single fold-out bed if you’ve got a little one or an extra guest tagging along (£20 per night).
If you’d like a bit more room to spread out, our two-bedroom apartments are the way to go.
We’ve also added comfy sofa beds in the living rooms of flats 2, 5, 7 and 8, so those ones are perfect if you’re travelling with friends or family and want a little extra flexibility.
A travel cot and highchair are available free of charge (subject to availability) — just let us know in advance and we’ll have them ready for your arrival.
Do you allow pets?
Yes, we welcome one small dog, but only in our ground floor apartments. An additional £20 cleaning fee applies. Bournemouth is a great spot for seaside strolls — there are designated dog-friendly beach areas even in summer, and from October 1st to April 30th, dogs are allowed on all beaches. Just bring the lead and they’re ready for adventure!
Is there parking?
We have limited on-site parking available for £10 per night, which must be booked in advance. Alternatively, the Central Car Park is just a 5-minute walk away, and there is metered street parking nearby (charged by the hour and can get busy).
Can I check in early?
Yes! If you'd like to check in from 1pm or check out by 12pm, we offer flexible options for £20. It helps us bribe the cleaner with caffeine and kindness to get everything ready just for you — just let us know ahead of time!
Is there Wifi?
Of course — every apartment has fast, reliable Wi-Fi for work, streaming, or sharing your dreamy stay on Instagram.
Do you do discounts for longer stays?
Yes, we do! Discounts are automatically applied for longer stays when booking directly with us. Perfect for workcations, beach retreats, or Bournemouth-based adventures.
Can you recommend some places to go?
Sure! Check out our Welcome Manual bit.ly/pelican-guide— it’s full of our favourite places to eat, drink, explore and unwind, including beach walks, live music, and quirky local gems.
