Krista
United States of America
Great location in a cute little town and within 5 min walk of several places to eat. The rooms were clean and had such pretty decor. It felt so quaint and comfortable. The price for staying was a good deal, and they offered a really great breakfast, which was really large. Each item is much bigger than we expected.
The owners were really accommodating and sweet. We had a really great stay, and will definitely be looking to come back again in the future.

Out of season Swanage is still charming.
Out of season Swanage is still charming. Small enough to walk round, but large enough to have a variety of shops and eateries. The Salt Pig was good for eating in. You can walk the coast path amongst other walks.

we only had two full days in Swanage in the middle of November, so our experience was not typical, We did look to drive into the town and park on the road by the side of the seafront, however the parking charge of £4.30 for the first hour put us off, who wants to benefit from 3 hours at £7.00 in November. As we didn't use the town car parks we cannot comment on the charges in them. My husband has bad knees so we didn't park and walk around the town but there did seem to be some interesting little, individual shops as we drove through, We found Corfe Castle a delight to visit, especially the NT tea shop! We hope to go back.William JOhnUnited Kingdom - 8.0Scored 8.0

I've stayed in Swanage several times and this reflects my like of Swanage and the surrounding area. The Town / beach / numerous eating options / the compact layout of the Town makes it easy to navigate. Also great walks in and around Swanage for short strolls or longer treks. Can't say I would have anywhere that I would avoid on subsequent visits.

Additional extra charges for dogs were not included in my initial expectations. I specifically looked for pet-friendly accommodations, assuming that the listed price would cover any potential pet fees. However, I was disappointed to discover that there was an additional £30 charge for my two teacup dogs. The prices for meals were exceedingly high, considering that the quality and taste were not particularly impressive.

Swanage is a compact seaside town but with the added advantage of an excellent bus service and the Swanage steam railway. The beach is clean and sandy. There are boat trips from the pier during the summer. A good selection of shops not just seaside souvenirs . Plenty of choices for evening meals and snacks.

Swanage is one of my most favourite seaside towns!
Swanage is one of my most favourite seaside towns! It is an absolutely beautiful town with a gorgeous bay, with very safe bathing and also dramatic cliff tops too. The town has many lovely shops and lots of fantastic eating places around the harbour and further in the town too. It is facinating to also learn about the history of Swanage and the connections to London and royalty! It is the most wonderful family seaside location xxxSarahUnited Kingdom

- From $233.03 per night7.9Scored 7.9GoodRated good· 875 reviewsWe were really well looked after as a large mixed age family by all the staff. They were all so polite, attentive and really kind. The views were absolutely stunning from the bedrooms, conservatory and garden. Having steps from the garden to the beach was fantastic and meant that we made full use of the beach. We were all able to park our cars in the car park, but also did not feel the need to use them as walking along the beach to town was an easy option, not that we wanted to leave the hotel. The evening meal was delicious.
