Bournemouth is a seaside town in Dorset (in Hampshire until 1974). It has perhaps a more "genteel" atmospher than some other seaside resorts, and the many pine trees, planted when the town was being developed in the 19th century, give it a salubrious atmosphere.
Bournemouth has long had an active gay scene, with a number of gay clubs centred round The Triangle. Wikipedia refers to "the Bondi (the South's only exclusively GLBT Hotel)".[1] But there certainly are and have been other LGBT hotels and guesthouses in the town itself, including the men-only Hamilton Hall.
Over the Rainbow, supported by the NHS, offers advice, support and information for the LGBT community.
Bournemouth's annual pride festival, celebrated since 2004, is Bourne Free.[2]
