Purbeck House Hotel & Louisa Lodge

It was a well kept property and it is situated at a really good location. The rooms were clean, the washrooms were clean. There was sufficient place to kept the bags and clothes. Overall we had a good time

Everything was good

Lovely setting with big gardens. Car parking was brilliant. Very convenient for the town centre & an easy walk. The room was a good size with views of the sea. When we arrived we'd been given a double which we asked to be made to a twin ( we were family not a couple) and this was rectified. Beds were comfortable. Shower & bathroom in a reasonable sized bathroom. Plenty of towels. Tea and coffee facilities in the room were adequate. Great bar area and plenty of seating areas inside & out & bar prices were reasonable.

Very small things - breakfast was continental & served in a lovely space but somehow bland, limited choice of fresh fruit. They seem to be running on a skeleton staff so you had to take the person away from one job to do another. The shower temperature was lethal & hard to adjust. We would stay again but have to say it felt a little lacking in soul, maybe it's too early in the season but they could do with cheering the place up a bit. Lighting in the room was all or nothing. A few table lamps might help.

Location, professional staff, comfortable room and bed. The views from room forty where outstanding. Plenty of parking and very central.

Location and feel for the hotel.

Bathroom facilities could have been better, they need upgrading as shower was really slow and took ages to get washed.

Beautiful gardens and a historic building in the heart of Swanage. The lady on reception was really friendly - she showed us some of the old rooms and told us the history of the house. We had a secure place to store our bikes, Can also recommend Pier Head fish restaurant
