Castle Inn, West Lulworth
Pros:

This is a very lovely hotel, with welcoming, friendly and efficient staff. The food was top class, both for dinner and breakfast. Great location for several nearby attractions. The building has character throughout but is also modern and stylish with all the facilities you need. Highly recommend

Cons:

Nothing, although would need to check how accessible it is if that's needed as it's a very old building so don't know if any adaptations have been made.

Skønt ophold
Pros:

Personalet er utrolig søde.

Fint værelse med vand, te og kaffe på værelset.
God seng og meget rent.

Dejlig morgenmad.

Vi spiste aftensmad på den tilhørende pub og det var også super lækkert.

God beliggenhed i hyggelig by og er tæt på Lulworth Cove og Durdle Door.

Perfect for where we needed to be. A very pleasant place to stay
Pros:

Room was nice and comfortable with everything we needed in it.

Food was very good. Breakfast & evening meal

Staff very friendly and polite

Location was perfect for where we were visiting during the day

Cons:

We stayed for 2 nights.
The only negative i could possibly say is if we were staying for a longer period a couple more additions to the menu would be welcomed
