Guest Reviews

• Thedogsdoolies (6/5): - Good location. Ample car parking off road. Nice breakfasts. Dated property. Needs to be brought up to this millennium.
• John (9/5): Second stay at Amberlea - just what we expected. - Very pleasant and efficient hosts.
• Michael (8/5): -
• sandra (10/5): -
• Paul (8/5): Perfect location - Great place and location
• Scott (10/5): - Quiet location but within each of town and the heritage raqay station and beach Shower roo small for me toilet a bit too low as well naught else to complain about
• Robert (8/5): Good value, smart, close to the sea, comfy & clean - Very good location for Swanage and the seafront with off road parking and a warm welcome. The twin ensuite room was bright, compact and just right: the beds were comfortable with smart, new linen and the whole place was very clean and well maintained. The shower was fixed in position but there was plenty of warm water; a good sized wardrobe with hangers and ample drawer space for two guests for several nights. The hosts were friendly and available to answer questions about the town. We didn’t have breakfast so cannot comment on that.

• Nicholas (9/5): -
• Daniel (10/5): It was excellent. - The room is comfortable and provided extra privacy with curtains and a door to the bathroom. The breakfast is especially nice and the staff are exceedingly friendly for their kindest hospitality. Highly recommended for anyone travelling to Swanage for a weekend break or summer holiday. I don’t have much to dislike. It’s all good.
• Philip (9/5): Comfortable, pleasant and enjoyable. - The room and facilities were excellent, the bed was very comfortable and the shower room although small was more than adequate. The decoration of the room was very pleasing, the dining room was well laid out and again pleasantly decorated. There was nothing we didn't like, we had a pleasant and enjoyable stay. having run Bed and Breakfast establishments for a number of years I would have been more than happy to invite people into this establishment.

• Jennifer (8/5): Would definitely stay again for next year's festival - The location for the Jazz Festival was perfect. I was lucky to get a room from a cancellation. The owner was very kind and helpful. I ordered just a very simple breakfast of just scrambled egg. Whilst it tasted ok it was very pale. The staff were very efficient and engaging.
• Tracy (6/5): It was fine - Central position. Comfortable bed Noise from other rooms travelled eg snoring and toilet flushing
• Loren (7/5): Fab place run by fab people! - Martin was so lovely and very helpful. Rooms were clean and comfortable in a great location! Although very cute, the dogs in the garden were a little noisy very early in the morning.
• Catherine (10/5): Very pleasant enjoyed being able to walk into town to meet with family. - Very comfortable. Close to town.
• John (10/5): As years catch up with us this was an excellent base in an area we have always visited in the past. - Excellent facilities, room clean and comfortable and regularly services. Breakfast is excellent and keeps you going all day. Parking on site for all rooms at front or rear of property. Close to town and beaches.
• Billy (10/5): Came for a little couples retreat - Nice bed Tv was small, water pressure was no good and there was mold on the shower ceiling which they tried to cover with white paint🤮
• Tina (9/5): Happy couple - Lovely clean room and decor. Bed very comfortable. Good location All good
• Pamela (10/5): - Proprietor upgraded our room , lovely and comfortable, very clean , lovely people , welcoming and helpful, good parking . There was nothing not to like.
• Helen (9/5): Nice comfortable room - Nice comfortable room located close to Swanage town and beach. Parking available at rear. Initially cold as the weather was icy but the portable heater sorted that.

• Derek (9/5): - Warm and comfortable Nothinh
• Nina (7/5): -
• Gardner (9/5): We enjoyed our stay very much, we were really impressed with breakfast, very good value. - The breakfast was excellent, couldn't have been better. The bed was extremely comfortable which is really important to me and usually hard to find. The rooms were clean and stocked with everything needed. Plenty of storage too. Would definitely return.
• Frank (8/5): -
• Pamela (8/5): - The room we booked was lovely, plenty of room , clean , very comfortable bed and good pillows. Close to Swanage town, easy walk in , also close to the beach . Nothing to not like 😊
• Mike (5/5): Treat like 2nd class never use booking.com again - As we booked with booking.com we had to pay separately for breakfast. The fried breakfast was worth the extra £10 per day, Paying extra for breakfast because we booked B&B through booking.com, NOT being able to use web site, paid extra for large double room and got a small room and 3/4 size bed because we did not book direct
• Kevin (8/5): - Great location for the Purbecks and Jurassic Coast Decor was a little dated
• Rosie (10/5): -
• Michael (9/5): Very nice, clean and quiet. - Clean, cosy room. Very quiet. Good WiFi. A 5 min walk to centre of town.
• Colin (8/5): -
• Sanders (9/5): -
• Shuk Yee Gloria (9/5): We had a comfortable stay at the guest house. - It’s very clean, in a convenient location and quiet. The breakfast was excellent. Good bathroom facilities and the bed was comfortable.
• Peter (8/5): Good accommodation for those train buffs out there. - Comfortable bed. Central heating excellent. Very clean. We telephoned the host on the way to Swanage and we were able to check in several hours earlier that the advertised time. 5 minute level walk (in the same direction) to beach, town centre and for the train buffs, to the station. We had off street free parking at the front of the premises. There was further parking at the rear. Very small room. We kept 1 of our 2 travel bags in the boot of our rental car due to lack of space in the room. Reasonably steep and narrow staircase to our room (room #6) on the 1st floor. Could hear some talking and TV from neighbouring room. Insulation an issue, or was it inconsiderate occupants next door. Ceased at a reasonable hour. No fridge, but that seems common with B&B’s.
• Sarah (9/5): Good stay with fantastic breakfast - The room was comfortable, nice bed linens and pillows. The owner kindly gave us some Prosecco as we had just got married! Breakfast was fantastic - lots of options, cereal, yoghurts, toast and full English. Parking for 2 cars on the drive. The property is a little dated and could do with some more atmosphere particularly at breakfast. Some music for instance would be nice. It is on the main road however we didn’t get too bothered by traffic noise.
• talmgd (9/5): -
• Jonathan (10/5): -
• Kim (7/5): - Location is excellent and the price is good . Communication from the host was good The room was very small , fine for one night only. The room smelt very damp which was not very pleasant

• Tracy (8/5): - Location was just about the right distance from the beach Didnt need to use the car once parked Its not that i 'didnt like' The ensuite was a little small, but we managed The tv was a little small but i sat nearer A little too fussy to pre order breakfast so we went to a local cafè Small parking spaces so dont have a big 4x4
• Stephanie (8/5): -
• Clowance (8/5): - Location in relation to beach and facilities was brilliant. Room was very comfortable, clean and well appointed. It was great to be able to smell how clean it was from the towels and sheets which were lovely. The shower was not very powerful, although was lovely and clean. However it was a good value for money particularly for the time of year so can't complain too much.

• Darrin (8/5): -
• Mandy (7/5): - Great location
• David (8/5): -
• Paul (10/5): -
• Antonina (9/5): -
• Solly (8/5): Visit to Jurassic Coast. - A nice house in a quiet street, within easy reach of the sea.The rooms are comfortable with the expected facilities. Breakfast, if chosen, is served at the table, as opposed to buffet style, and ranges from continental style, to full, cooked breakfast. Reasonably priced, Amberlea represents good value for money. There is parking at the rear of the house, but there are limited, and quite tight spaces. The street outside the property is quite narrow, so parking, except for loading and unloading, is not a realistic, or advisable option.
• JULIE (10/5): - Very clean peaceful very near to shops Nothing
