Purbeck House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel with such an historic atmosphere. Breakfast is basic but has everything you need. Reception are lovely and the rooms are so comfortable and clean. We love staying here."

The Pines Hotel

8/10 Good

"Stay was good but the hotel looks dated. The staff very friendly and the property very clean. The electric shower very dated and very noisy. The view over the bay from our balcony was the best part of the break. Hotel over priced and needs some serious modernisation. Thank goodness we had two days of lovely weather."

A beautifully furnished, stone cottage in Swanage with garden and parking.

10/10 Excellent

"It’s always a pleasure to stay at the Gatehouse. This was our second visit, and once again, it didn’t fail to delight us.The house is beautifully appointed, with comfortable, homely furnishings, high-end appliances and wonderful-quality linens. Everything has been thoughtfully provided, so we had absolutely everything we needed for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.The location is also excellent — just a 10-minute walk down to the beach and high street, making it easy to enjoy everything the area has to offer.We would definitely stay at the Gatehouse again and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, well-equipped and beautifully located home away from home."

10/10 Excellent

"My 11 year old daughter and I had a lovely stay at The Lookout. Photos don’t do it justice! Everything was very clean, the beds were comfy and everything you could possibly need for your trip was somewhere to be found in the cottage. Michael’s communication was great, getting in was easy and the views over to Corfe Castle were spectacular."
