Louisa Lodge & Purbeck House Hotel  

We loved our stay.We stayed in the lodge with a sea view.The Staff were very welcoming & friendly.We was able to get into our room early,which made our weekend even more enjoyable.Our room was modern spacious, warm, bright, clean & the sea view was beautiful.The rooms in the Hotel are more traditional and have so much character.The food was plentiful and very good.The Sunday Carvery was perfect and you can choose between a 1,2 or 3 course,we choose the one course only because we were so full from breakfast.The starters & puddings looked very temping.We went in November but the hotel & rooms were always warm.Theold hotel building is so beautiful and the history very interesting.The grounds pretty and peacefulThe capark is free & large & near to the hotel.The postion in Swanage town is perfect near to everything,just a 10 min walk to the cafe's,beach,habour,steam railway & shops.We are planning to go back in March/April and can not wait.

Very friendly staff, excellent room, wonderful food.

Charming hotel with excellent staff.

The whole general atmosphere. It felt rather like being welcomed as a friend into someone's house rather than just a hotel.

The breakfast room and breakfast:very good

Bath and shower water-rather tepid Car entrance rather narrow

Great Location with our lodge overlooking the Bay. Friendly and helpful hotel team. Nice environment to relax,unwind and get away from the pressures of life. Great time enjoyed by my partner and I. Will be back!

Its location, character, quality and price.

We liked the romantic building and surrounding garden, the large and comfortable rooms, the spacious and cosy lounge and the bar where we could eat bar meals. The staff were friendly and helpful. We were also pleased that we could leave our car in a safe large car park. The walk to the bus and steam train station only took a few minutes, and the shops and beach were also nearby. The breakfast was excellent. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Thought the hotel was a fantastic building with lovely well kept grounds great location in the town did not have to drive all weekend.the food and the service was excellent with a freindly atmosphere,could not fault the roomsat all. Enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to book again.

Huge room in the Lodge, quiet and fully functional. Just what we wanted

Very friendly welcome - comfortable, convenient and very well located in the centre of town

We stayed in the Lodge which had a wonderful balcony and views across Swanage bay. Room was excellent, very clean, peaceful, and spacious. I would recommend this hotel. This was our second time here and we will definately be going back
