Location is amazing. Steep hill to town but short distance. Great views. The house is full of character, and has everything you need for self catering or bringing back fish and chips :-) We had no trouble with parking.

    I have always loved Swanage its a quintessential seaside town full of activity , I attend a Blues festival annually which is great. Pubs are friendly and plentiful and the fish & chips are outstanding. I would highly recommend a visit to Swanage, I love it and would live there if it suited my families lifestyle.

    What a gem of a seaside town.

    What a gem of a seaside town. The breathtaking scenery of the Jurassic coast with Corfe Castle looming in the near distance... Great pubs and places to eat; fresh pastries and decent coffee. The steam railway, South West Coast Path - and the rose gold sands in front of jaunty beach huts combine to create an atmosphere lost by so many larger, once grander resorts. Some steep hills make the town potentially challenging for wheelchairs. Visiting in autumn when the town had a buzz was fun - unsure about high season visitor volumes and how the small town manages?

    I really liked Swanage.

    I really liked Swanage. There is wonderful walking on the Coastal Path and across the fields, on walks that are accessible by public bus. The Swanage Railway outing to Corfe Castle and the Mining Museum is a very good day out. The town itself has everything that a visitor needs in terms of supermarkets and restaurants and pubs. There is an excellent fish and chips place (The Fish Plaice) right on the square by the quay. Try the Cornish Bakery, too.

    Lovely seaside town with extraordinary beach and vista; we also like the shops, Steam Railway and the layout of the town. Lovely Cafe for Lunch where we waited to board the Waverly Paddle Steamer. A trip of the Swanage Steam Railway. A superb visit.

    Great location a short stroll to Swanage Beach, Hot showers clean and quiet campsite the bell tent was spacious and the bag of wood and kindling for the fire pit was very nice for toasting marshmallows. The site is big but very well maintained by Barbara. No noise spacious pitches not overcrowded and very considerate friendly campers it's also dog friendly. We had enough plug sockets for our phones x 4

    We had a family room, which was excellent as our grandson had his own side room. Breakfast and evening meals offered a good choice and the evening meals were all accompanied by a good selection of fresh vegetables. The location of the hotel offers wonderful views of the bay and there are convenient steps down to the beach.
