The location and sea view is excellent, quiet, and the rooms very comfy. We had an upgraded room with balcony which had sea view. Lovely garden and lift to all floors. The lounge area with bar was relaxing. Breakfast was more than adequate from buffet to pre-select menu items. We skipped lunch but the dinner menu was limited but adequate. To\he hotel is situated on a low level cliff with a safe stairway to the beach. Being elderly we chose a short drive to the beach. The staff were very helpful and friendly, we enjoyed our stay enormously.

Swanage is a beautiful seaside town with a somewhat tropical vibe in terms of vegetation. Steeped in Jurassic and seafaring history with attractive buildings, there’s something for everyone. Slightly hilly in parts, the main attractions are on the level with access to the beach, amusements, shops and catering outlets. (Seafood galore and don’t get me started on the ice-cream). Clean public conveniences is always a bonus!
