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 two minutes from the cliff top. Bournemouth Hotels. Over 100 years ago the Gervis Court was a typical hotel in Bournemouth, family run hotel/ boarding house originally called 'Leicester House'. On Sept 7th 1895 Lady Harriet Ponsonby and her maid plus Mrs General Faber and Mrs Morry were in residence. We have been established for a long time! When Lady Ponsonby came there would have been only an odd carriage here and there, now you can park here at the hotel, an easy walk to the town without parking problems. Close to the beach, pier and shops, bars and restaurants; the seafront, Bournemouth Pier, the town centre and Bournemouth International Centre are quite literally only a short walk away. We pride ourselves on our well-maintained and presented gardens. We are one of the fine hotels in Bournemouth. For your choice of holiday accommodation in Bournemouth with all the hotels, bed and breakfast, and guest houses, the Gervis Court is ideally placed for you.
