The finest affordable rooms in Lulworth
Pros:

Exceptionally friendly staff, comfortable room with great views, and an expansive dining/lounge area plus patio. Breakfast came at an added fee, but was incredible value for what was an endless supply of food and great coffee. I'll be back soon.

Great location with great views but don’t eat at the restaurant
Pros:

Great location, spacious room, friendly staff

Cons:

Restaurant food was not very good at all. Stick to the pizzas! The parking system is a pain but cheap when you finally sort it.

A wonderful stay with friendly staff, a great location, and excellent service.

The location was excellent, with easy access to Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove. The room was clean and comfortable. The receptionist was very friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help. I remember she studied History, and we had a lovely conversation. She made me feel very welcome.

Nothing major. I had a pleasant stay.

Very good.
Pros:

Early breakfast was arranged with very helpful staff. The gentleman on duty both when we arrived and the following morning could not have been more helpful.

Cons:

Only pizza was available as an evening meal. But a pub down the road provided very good evening meals so wasn’t a problem. But given what the charge was, I’d have expected the hotel to offer a more varied dinner option.
