Having read the reviews by other guests I was not prepared for the poor standard of accommodation at this B and B. We stayed as part of a group of eight walking the final part of the S W Coast Path and this was, by far, the worst place we stayed at. The owner was very pleasant but the rooms... More

Excellent couple of days with Roger and Sue - like coming home!!!! Internet access has improved tremendously - everything super - moved on to Devon for the rest of the week - but the next b and b not a patch on Roger and Sue - thank you both for your wonderful welcome!

Friendly and welcoming owners, Roger and Sue, who recommended some places in the area to visit. Room fine apart from being a little cold, but it was mid September when we stayed. House is full of antiques, which was like stepping back in time, so for us, it was quite a refreshing change. It was clean and spacious and the... More

Four of us (2 couples) stayed here for 2 nights (minimum stay) recently and found it a pleasant enough experience especially at the price. We had just come out of an awesome B&B in Wells (Canon Grange) so it had a lot to live up to! The owner was friendly and courteous, the bedding was clean and crisp, the breakfast... More

Our third visit to a b and b which never disapoints - lovely sea view from our front bedroom, amazing breakfasts every day, nothing is too much trouble, even shared their own (Rogers) special jam when my husband mentioned he wasn;t keen on marmalade, a couple with amazing local knowledge who make each of their guests feel like friends. TV... More

Visited Swanage for a couple of nights,hubby, me and 12 year old. Found Roger and Sue very friendly and welcoming, nothing to much trouble. The B&B does not have ensuite facitilties but that does not bother us, in a nice quiet area of the town and only acouple of minutes walk into the town down hill, abit of a struggle... More

Having had a really good week here in June = we booked again for a few days in late August/early September - another warm welcome - made to feel like friends rather than paying guests - huge breakfasts, masses of local knowledge and a real interest in their customers. The lack of tv in the rooms is no real hardship... More

We have stayed at the Hermitage 6 or 7 times in the last few years, and find it welcoming, friendly, clean and convenient for our needs. It is central and only a few minuets walk (downhill) to a great choice of shops, restaurants and pubs. We use the B/B as a base to explore this beautiful area of Dorset, and... More

This was our third visit to this B & B, we return every year for the Swanage Folk Festival. Susan and Roger always make us welcome and produce excellent breakfasts. The room was ideal for our needs (three guests = three beds) and having a washbasin in the room is always useful, the room was clean, the beds comfortable and... More
