Money & Currency
Get a travel card →Pound Sterling, GBP
Use high-street banks or post office for best rates; avoid exchange bureaux at airports and tourist spots which give poor rates.
Contactless cards and mobile pay (Apple/Google Pay) are widely accepted everywhere, even for small amounts; chip-and-PIN is standard.
Not expected but appreciated: round up in taxis, leave 10-12.5% in restaurants if service is good, and a couple of pounds for hotel housekeeping.
Eat, Shop & Travel on a Budget
Cheap car hire →Filter coffee or an espresso from a chain café costs around £2.50; independent cafes may be slightly less.
A filled baguette or jacket potato from a sandwich shop or pub lunch special, around £6-8.
A main course at a modest pub or curry house, typically £10-14.
Not a big street food scene; the quayside market on weekends sometimes has stalls with baps and pasties for around £5.
Tesco, Sainsbury's, Aldi, and Lidl are the main budget supermarkets in BH15.
Primark and M&S on the high street; also charity shops around Church Street for cheap second-hand basics.
Local bus day pass (Morebus) costs about £5; from Bournemouth airport, take the X55 bus into Poole for roughly £7 one-way — cheaper than taxi.
Buy groceries at Aldi or Lidl instead of convenience shops; walk or cycle (flat area) rather than drive; look for 'two-for-one' meal deals on local pub boards.

Top Attractions in Poole
💡 The small free gallery on the top floor has windows overlooking the harbour — a good spot for a quiet sit-down. The building has no lift, only stairs.
💡 Head to the north-east corner near the mini-golf course for the best views across the harbour to Brownsea Island — particularly at sunset.
💡 Pick up a free Old Town walking leaflet from the tourist info centre on the Quay for self-guided tour notes on Blue Plaque buildings.
💡 Walk east from the main beach car park along the sand to the South Haven Point, then take the boardwalk through the dunes. It’s free, quieter than the main strip, and you often see kitesurfers doing loops in the channel.
💡 Low-cost if you walk or cycle to the Sandbanks ferry (small car park fee). Bring your own picnic; the café at the villa is pricey and limited. Visit autumn for fewer crowds and guaranteed birdlife.
