From start to finish it has been a pleasure to use your company to install the solar panels, Battery and EV charger. Was a couple of small issues along the way but you know you have chosen a good company when they pick up the phone , answer message and call you back.

Starts Electrical have gone above and beyond with my new solar panel installation. They were professional, tidy and the price was fair! I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again. Russell the business owner made me feel at ease from start to finish and was always available to discuss any questions I had!

From first contact with Russell and his team at Starks service has been first class. The whole process from survey to fitting and commissioning was completely seamless. Russell fully explained the whole process, the fitters were polite and respectful, communication throughput was excellent. Price was very competitive. Highly recommended.

Just had 21 panels (split between east and west of my roof) and a large battery fitted by Russell and his team. The plan being to maximise the amount of solar I generate and combine this with a heat pump (being fitted soon by a separate national installer). I got quotes from a number of solar installers before opting for Starks electrical. Whilst their quote was competitive the thing which stood out most with this company was their knowledge and experience in fitting solar and I liked that they were a local company. I was able to make tweaks to my proposed system and get lots of free advice from Russell’s team so by the time the install went ahead I was really confident about my purchase. There was absolutely no ‘hard sell’ and I was given options for various systems at different price points which was great. The installation was very smooth. The team who did the install were great - worked really hard, were polite courteous and really nice guys who had years (decades!) of experience in solar installs. The system is now working great - even in October! I highly recommend this company.

Great service from Russell and his team. Everything was completed very neatly and within the timescale I was given. The electrician then came back separately to assist with my setting up the app so I can monitor as necessary. My electricity usage is now an average of 3p per day.

I absolutely love this place, best coffee in town. Staff are lovely and clearly hard working as the queues can get long, but even under pressure you get served very quickly, never undermining the quality. I highly recommend.

I love Black Cactus. It’s a regular meeting point for my friend and I who live a distance from each other. The staff are super friendly, customers chatty, environment is warm in both temperature and vibe. Perfect cosy spot and my favourite place in Blandford. Keep up the good work guys and your were right, the brownie warmed was a perfect new year chocolatey treat.

When I first saw this place stood on the opposite side of the road, wasn't sure if it was a cafe or plant shop but once at the door, I knew I found a little gem. Lovely staff, very good food and great decor. I live in Cornwall so won't be a regular but a real treat when I'm back up that way.

What a wonderful little spot. I have been there a few times now and every time I am welcomed with a smile and all the staff are so friendly even when they are rushed off there feet. The selection of cakes and treats are scrummy. Love clean welcoming cafe.

Broadway Dental Surgery
225 Lower Blandford Rd, Broadstone, Poole, Broadstone BH18 8DN, UK | Dental Clinic P: 01202 694303
Rating: 4.7 (18) Price Level:
I have been using this dentist surgery for over 50 years. Kevin Brown made a huge difference to my dental health when he took over the practice. He initially spent considerable time stabilising my teeth. As a result my teeth are now in a very good condition. I am very pleased with both the service and professionalism at this surgery. Recently Kevin Brown carried out emergency treatment to a broken tooth at very short notice. Highly recommended.
Rating: 5 / 5
Kevin Brown and his team have just completed my 4 new crowns! They are excellent and I am so pleased with the work. Going to the dentist doesn't worry me but spending over an hour in the chair for the first visit, I was made to feel relaxed and there was always a joke to keep me going! I really am pleased with my new 'teeth' - the previous ones lasted 35 years so maybe these will too! I would certainly recommend the practice and the pleasant, helpful and friendly staff. Thank you

Having been scared of dentists from a young age I used to need Valium to have any procedures done, but since joining Broadway dental all my fears have gone. Friendly staff, very knowledgeable & skilled dentists meaning that even the injections don't hurt. They really do listen & help in every way. Been going there for 10+ years now and wouldn't go anywhere else. Even my dental health has improved under their care. Kids now registered there too. New premesis & all the latest technology available. Highly recommended.

I have been a patient at Broadway as long as I can remember and have had some pretty extensive work done over those years. Mr Brown and the team are always so welcoming and friendly. I always feel like I am in safe hands and always recommend to friends looking for a new dentist. Love the new practice and rebranding too :D

I have been a patient at Poundbury for over 20 years and remain as a patient due to the consistent care and professionalism of the staff which is important to me as a person with a fear of going to the dentist. I have no hesitation in recommending Bupa Dental Care Poundbury

We meet with friends on Sunday for lunch, and all went for the burgers. These were as per our other visits, amazing. We did see a few roasts go out, and questioned our choice, as these looked incredible. The staff were friendly and provided some really good banter, to make it a great atmosphere. At the end, the Landlord place a huge plate of the lovely Yorkshire pubs on the bar for anyone that wanted one for free. Our friends were extremely impressed and will most certainly be going back.

Out on my bike today and needed a coffee. I was on some quiet roads andso was very happy to come across this bar, cafe, restaurant. It looks very nice inside. Today was only for a coffee but also had a homemade sausage roll which turned out to be beautiful. The guys warmed it up for me too!. I was disappointed that they didn’t have skimmed milk but as I was on a long ride it was all good. The coffee was, however, very nice, they made it extra hot for me and made it in a larger cup which was more cappuccino style. Price for the 2 was £7.25. The place was popular with people having meals out in the sun and other cyclists. Plenty of parking. I’d love to return.

Visited this pub on a cycling trip. Had a warm welcome on arrival. Menu was really good and lunch bar snacks were great. Fish finger sandwich was just delicious. Proper cod fish fingers, really delicious. Bar man filled up our water bottles with fresh cold water that was most welcomed. All in all what an amazing village pub. Well worth a trip out for the food.

Had a delicious Roast Beef lunch here today. Couldn’t fault it! Reasonably priced. Fresh. Cooked to perfection and extremely tasty. Enjoyed every mouthful. The best I have had in a very long time. Will def return!

Fantastic food and beer in a lovely pub. Posh fish n chips from the specials board was amazing. Service was attentive without being intrusive. A little pricey but I did close the most expensive thing on the menu. That's quite a few birthdays we have celebrated here.

I am new to this practise, I so far have had 2 appointments with Elena, by far the best dentist I have had. I had to have root canal, Elena made me feel so comfortable and relaxed. Also completely pain free. The two dental nurses that were assisting her were also very kind and welcoming. Id like to also add my very first visit walking into the practise there were 3 lovely smiley girls on reception. overall a very lovely professional friendly practise. Highly recommend. Thank you to all the team for being so kind and welcoming!

I cannot recommend Sara and the team highly enough! Since childhood, I’ve been unhappy with my overcrowded and discoloured teeth. Whenever I looked at photos, all I could focus on was my smile, especially as the crowding and twisting worsened in recent years. Thanks to Sara, that has completely changed—now my smile makes me happy! Sara has been incredibly professional throughout my Invisalign treatment, while also being warm and approachable. Her deep knowledge and attention to detail gave me complete confidence that every step of the process was carefully tailored to my needs, including consideration of other medical conditions to ensure the best possible outcomes. What I appreciated most was how Sara approached my queries. She always took the time to listen and understand first, then explain or investigate thoroughly before offering reassurance. That level of care made a huge difference to my experience. The team has also been consistently friendly, helpful, and welcoming, which made every visit feel easy and stress-free. As someone who normally dislikes having dental work done, I was pleasantly surprised to find that I never once dreaded a visit to Sara and the team. The results so far have been fantastic, and I’m thrilled with how my teeth have transformed. Thank you, Sara and the team, for making this such a positive journey!

What an outstanding clean and friendly practice!! This was my second visit and first treatment, I was so worried about having an extraction, a couple of fillings, and a scale and polish all in one sitting. I didn't feel any discomfort whatsoever. Everyone was so friendly, and lovely, and there was ample parking close by. Thank you so much see you again in 2 days time 😂😁

I've had a positive experience at my appointment today. It was the first time seeing a hygienist at this practice. From previous visits somewhere else I was expecting quite a bit of discomfort during the procedure. However, I had no discomfort at all and I still find it hard to believe that there can be a hygienist appointment with no pain at all. Nicola was my hygienist today and she was very gentle, thorough and patient. Everybody else I've met today or on previous visits here, have always been professional, welcoming and helpful. Thank you Nicola and the team for the great dental care received so far.

Sammie and Sophie came into our school to teach the children about oral health. They were engaging and the children thoroughly enjoyed the session. They had so many questions and were very keen to talk about the visit for the rest of the day. Would highly recommend!

A great hidden treasure, we stumbled across this place when planning a walk with the dog. The venue is dog friendly and has a lovely outside seating area. The food was incredible and well priced including the drinks which was an added bonus. The staff very polite and welcoming, we definitely will be back again!

What a cracking little spot for a few drinks and a bite to eat. After a nice little cycle over to Marcia’s it’s fantastic to sit outside in the sun and have a couple of beers or ciders. Lovely selection of food from the farm shop too.

Tried this little cafe today on the basis they don't serve burgers and chips! Yes, it is a little dated on decor, but you can easily overlook that with friendly staff, good food at decent prices and the sound of friendly chatter all around. Will definitely come back when next in Blandford.
Rating: 4 / 5
First visit to this establishment with my sister to sample some coffee and lunch. Very quiet location. First the staff all very friendly. premises are very dated definitely in need of a refurbish. Nice decaf coffee food was simple but nice . Took a while to be served with our food but didn't bother us better to wait a little and not just zipped in a microwave. Only other big problem was no air cooling or air conditioning available. Just a couple of fans close to the staff. Weather was very hot outside. Definitely give scruples another visit. Due to the friendly staff.

Lovely fresh food and the staff are friendly and nothing is too much trouble. The only thing i would change is i wouldnt overload the counters with lots of tat especially if noone buys the stuff it doesnt look nice its looks overcrowded and its dusty. We only ever go for the food. Honestly the counters is the only downside we love the staff and food!!!
Rating: 5 / 5
I love it here. Staff are lovely, really friendly and helpful. The food is amazing, love the fact they don’t serve fatty fried food. It’s really healthy eating at a good price. The hot drinks are amazing especially the caramel latte! Jacket potatoes are the best in town, you should do a takeaway menu! I’d be there everyday!

My company works alongside GF electrical mainly on out of hours emergencies. I have to say that over the years I have found their service faultless and unsurpassed. The work we pass to them is often urgent and yet they always attend quickly and resolve the issue in hand. GF electrical operate in a very organised manner and you never have to chase them up for anything. Highly recommend them.
