Staff were very pleasant, cooked breakfast was a little undercooked, grounds of hotel very nice, good car parking, room could have done with a fan due to hot weather but didn’t think to ask reception 🙄. Definitely would go back

In the town , near the beach , nice garden .

Third time stay , pleasant , old fashioned , pleasant staff . All basic needs . It's quirky without probably meaning to be . We'll stay there next time we stay in Swanage for sure .
