The Knoll House

8/10 Good

"Good breakfast"

Laguna Hotel

8/10 Good

"Drop point, taxi. Some time drop us outside near first building near main road, therefore signs to get to reception are no guiding clear, because the area, is big and also at night time arrival can be a challenge."

Lovely seaside chalet with just a 2 minute walk to the beach!

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely house, lots of room for the group, very comfy beds and great location with parking. Walking into Swanage to the restaurants was so easy. Check in and check out was smooth. Comms with Julia was easy and she was very accommodating with an early check in."

The Pines Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A wonderful 4 day stay. Beautiful room overlooking the bay. Ample parking. All areas of the hotel were very clean and well maintained. Restaurant serves lovely food using fresh produce. Short walk along the beach to Swanage. Will definitely return."

Sandbanks waterfront flat with panoramic views over Poole Harbour

10/10 Excellent

"A beautiful flat with several balconies giving great sea views and views of the boats etc. The rooms were comfortable and clean. As we were on public transport we would have appreciated the offer of paying a bit extra for towels as they tend to take up a lot of room in luggage. Mark was excellent at keeping in touch with us. answering any queries. Supplies of cutlery, crockery and utensils were excellent. Sea views were wonderful. Plenty of chairs for sitting out. Luxurious showers. The only area that needed a bit more care was the area around the kitchen sink.But we were all retired nurses!"

Modern apartment on Sandbanks Peninsula, with private garden. (pet friendly)

10/10 Excellent

"Overall our stay was excellent right in the middle of a heatwave. Only niggle was slow water trickle and no hot water to hand basin in bathroom but put up with it as we were only there for 3 nights.Be aware double bed mattress is very soft!"

This charming cottage has a secluded garden which is perfect for relaxing in.

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed a lovely girls weekend away in Bramble Cottage. The cottage was clean, warm and cosy and they supplied plenty of wood to enjoy a fire both nights we were there. The Village Inn provided a lovely welcome and great food for our first night. The bus stop opposite provided bus transport into Swanage for Â£3 return and you were able to track the bus so didn't have to stand out in the cold waiting for too long.The staff were very friendly and were able to fix a slight mishap with the door in a very timely manner.We are already planning our next trip."
