The Pines Hotel

8/10 Good

"We would definitely return to the pines . I was surprised how roomy the family room was . A little dog treat and towel was a nice little touch as we we where traveling with the dog . Only down part was dog wasn't allowed in the bar area there was a separate room where you could have your meals and drinks but it lacked atmosphere. The food was delicious aswell as yhe breakfast and the staff was really friendly. Beautiful views ."

"Stunning views from the garden"

Mortons Manor

10/10 Excellent

"Our room was very clean. Plenty of parking. The staff were very attentive yet discreet. Our meals were excellent and well presented. All in all a most enjoyable stay and well recommended."

Bankes Arms Hotel

8/10 Good

"Excellent location; on bus route and next to railway station. Excellent breakfast. Friendly, helpful staff. Only negative is that we had a room at the front of the hotel and the road is extremely busy throughout the day and night. If the windows are closed you do not hear the traffic but if they are open then you have little sleep. We had to keep the windows open as we stayed during the heat wave. Perhaps the hotel could provide fans during the summer months."

Glamping Cabin - Great for Hikers - Breakfast Inc!

10/10 Excellent

"Very welcoming and ideal for travellers with pets . Great location , walking distance to the coastal path and very close drives to National Trust areas such as Corfe Castle and Studland beaches"
