An Enchanting and Grand Coastal SanctuaryOur recent sojourn at the Purbeck House Hotel and Louisa Lodge was nothing short of extraordinary. Nestled in a breathtaking coastal location just moments from the sea, this magnificent property possesses the majestic architectural splendour of a historic castle. Local lore suggests its origins as a tranquil nunnery, adding an aura of timeless charm and fascinating heritage to the entire estate.
We resided in a meticulously appointed, ground floor accommodation within the Louisa Lodge. The quarters were remarkably airy, providing an exceptionally comfortable and pleasant sanctuary. Each morning commenced with a delightful continental breakfast that was both remarkably nutritious and thoroughly delectable.
The hotel grounds are a lavish, picturesque paradise. During the daytime, the vibrant gardens are populated by playful squirrels and charming songbirds—complemented by the enthusiastic presence of the local seagulls! As twilight descended, the estate transformed into a magical sanctuary where we witnessed majestic deer, badgers, and foxes roaming freely.
What truly elevates this establishment to a superior standard is the unparalleled hospitality. The staff members are incredibly accommodating, genuinely amiable, and consistently surpassed our expectations. Even the housekeeping service was absolutely flawless. While officially designated as a three-star establishment, the sheer elegance and sophisticated ambiance make it undeniably worthy of a five-star classification. It is a wonderfully opulent retreat that we highly recommend.

The welcome from reception.
The room was well thought out with everything that was needed.
The lounges and bar area are great.
Grounds are pleasant with seating available.
Its close to the centre of town.
The change in the breakfast offer. Whilst I understand the reasoning to stop offering a cooked breakfast I feel the continental breakfast is adequate at best, many of the items offered being of a basic or poor standard.
At the very least tables should be laid with cutlery and napkins.
Also it’s a shame that there is no background music in the bar or lounge areas. This could be provided at a management agreed level and of a genre that is suitable for a hotel of this type.
Sea view was a stretch
Location very central.
Staff very friendly and helpful.
Parking plentiful.
Very old beautiful hotel and lodge in a perfect location close to shops and beach. Very friendly people. Stayed twice now and hope to get back Very soon
very good stay feel welcome here good friend
good service
Nice big room, very clean and tidy, good location, easy free parking, more room lights than normal, plenty of power sockets.
Small TV (but adequate), would prefer a walk in shower - nowadays climbing into a bath to shower is outdated and dangerous for us pensioners. The room price was a little high.
Location good and plenty of free parking at the hotel. The garden was lovely. It is a converted Victorian house so plenty of character. My single room had a beautiful view of Swanage Bay.
I booked a single room which which was on 2 nd floor which was originally the servants quarters with no lift. due to the nature of the hotel it had lots of steps to the room. Do not book if you have mobility problems
interesting victorian hotel,sypathetically being maintained.Good location incentre of Swanage.
Decor in bar and lounge could do with updating to be more inviting whilst keeping the traditional features.
No cooked breakfast available
Excellent location
De ruime kamer met prachtig meubilair. Het ontzettend vriendelijke personeel!
Niks viel tegen. Het hotel is een oud huis uit 1875 (geloof ik) dus niet alles is modern, maar dat draagt juist bij aan de hele beleving.
Historic building. Great location. Good value for money.
The grounds and history of the building.

Catering for a wedding blocked main pathway to reception.

Lovely building in beautiful gardens. Very good breakfast. friendly staff.
Some of the furniture was past its best although the beds were comfortable.
