Perfect Stay
Stayed with my friend for a girly night away. Perfect spot for an overnight break. Close to both Swanage and Studland and also Wareham. The Castle is worth a visit and at the same he right time of year, step on the steam train. Very hospitable staff, great twin room overlooking the square.

Characterful Inn with friendly staff in the heart of the village. Fabulous food. Location is a bonus but as a result also a lot of traffic noise.

Really comfortable room. Friendly staff and great food. They wrapped up my breakfast as I was going a run which was really kind. It was very tasty after I warmed it up at home.
Deborah, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel is located in a great location. It has an excellent pub, with another excellent pub almost across the street for variety. It is a short walking distance to Corfe castle as well as an historic railway.
Jonathan, 2-night trip

Happy guests.
We are really pleased to have stayed here. It's a great building which I imagine the overseas tourists must be in awe of. Well even this English one was! The staff were really good, we had a very good evening meal and breakfast. There is a car park at the back which in high season must be a very useful thing for guests in this very busy village.
