Gervis Court Hotel

The Gervis Court is a typical Bournemouth hotel. It is also a Victorian home of great character, set in its own grounds. We have ample free forecourt parking and nestles amongst pine trees, only 2 minutes from the cliff top.


Bournemouth Hotels. Over 100 years ago the Gervis Court was a typical family-run hotel in Bournemouth, originally called 'Leicester House'. On Sept 7th 1895 Lady Harriet Ponsonby and her maid plus Mrs General Faber and Mrs Morry were in residence.


When Lady Ponsonby came there would have been only an odd carriage here and there; now you can park at the hotel, and enjoy the easy walk to town without parking problems. Close to the beach, pier and shops, bars and restaurants, the seafront, Bournemouth Pier, the center of town and Bournemouth International Centre, the hotel is quite literally only a short walk from everything Bournemouth has to offer.


As one of the best hotels in Bournemouth, the Gervis Court prides itself on its well-maintained and presented gardens.
