"Unbelievably cheap stay. Lovely en suite room with sea view. Staff very friendly and helpful. My first stay in a YHA in nearly 30 years and experience was so good I’m looking to come again. Only gripe would be internet signal in rooms a bit poor "

Red Lion
8/10 Good
"We liked the easy way to get into town and all the amenities
We weren’t impressed with the garden cleanliness and all needed a bit of clean and TLC "
"Very pleasant and comfortable. Spacious rooms in a large old stone-walled mansion very near the centre of Swanage and not far from the sea. Friendly and helpful staff. Large garden and ample parking."
"Spent a lovely few days at Taunton House BB couldn’t wish for more. Very friendly,spotlessly clean and an excellent breakfast. Oh and beautiful weather. What more could you possibly want."

10/10 Excellent
"My husband visited Swanage on numerous occasions as a child and both of us , many times . The accommodation was in a great place, beach and coast path both nearby and a pub across the road. Accommodation nice and cool , big bedroom and enough room to relax on the veranda surrounding the apartment. Very clean kitchen with everything we needed , nice shower. Would definitely return. "
Refurbished house, close to the beach, quiet central location
10/10 Excellent
"The house is on a quiet street, perfectly located for shops, beach, restaurants etc. We were fortunate to be able to park close to the property.The house is very comfortable, and well equipped with everything we required. It is just around the corner from all the shops, restaurants and close to the beach.It has a small courtyard garden, which we used briefly during our stay. The garden furniture could probably do with replacing, but was absolutely fine for the short time we used it.Katie communicated well, and supplied useful information and advice .We would happily stay here again in the future."
"We booked the budget rooms which were surprisingly spacious. The conservatory has lovely views of the water and it’s very easy to walk to the sea. We would return."
Lovely seaside chalet with just a 2 minute walk to the beach!
10/10 Excellent
"Communication with Julia was both prompt and friendly before our visit. The Dolphins is a great home by sea and worked perfectly for us as a multi generational family holiday. There was everything we needed. Garden amazing! Beds comfy, lots of toys and games, very clean and lots of little extras you don’t often find in rented holiday homes. Thanks Julia. We would love to explore the area more so could well be back in the future."
