Sarah and Stephen offered great recommendations for exploring the area. Sara made us a delicious cake and provided a generous breakfast. We enjoyed sitting in their garden in the evening.

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?

A very comfortable hotel with a fabulous location overlooking Swanage Bay and Ballard Down. The rooms are modern and comfortable and the lounge and dining room spacious with great views. The staff are absolutely excellent: cheerful, polite and friendly. We didn't have dinner there, but the breakfast was excellent. The haddock and poached eggs were superb, the best I've had. We shall definitely go back as our first choice in Swanage - the quintessential English seaside resort.

Our daughters wedding was at Durlston Castle so the Beach House was ideally positioned as only 10 minutes away. The house is very spacious and comfortable and wished we could have stayed longer . Can highly recommend Bills Taxis. Short walk into Swanage with the beach, shops and pubs. . Also everything there for you such as washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets and tea towels.

Location was ideal, if you walk down the side of the Grand Hotel a little path leads down to the beach. There’s a couple of cafes there, they serve breakfast and lunch until 3pm weather permitting. You can walk along this coastal path into Swanage. (Bit of a steep hill when going back up the side of the Grand Hotel to get back to the accommodation, but pace yourself 😊)

The room was first class, Very large & spacious. Our hosts were very welcoming. Breakfast was served in our room daily by filling in the menu. The b&b is very close to all amenities in Swanage town & the beach. Would highly recommend staying.

We have been coming to Swanage for years and have stayed here in the past. The hotel has been refurbished tastefully. The location is very convenient with steps to the beach. It was only an overnight stay but it suited our needs well.
