Top Durdle Door Hotel Reviews

Belhuish Farmhouse

Belhuish Farmhouse

10/10 Excellent
"This property is unique and rare - owned by an innkeeper who welcomes you to his table with warm hospitality and decades of history to share. Mr. Miller is a wealth of information and retired thatcher. This is not a place for you if you need a well-appointed hotel to feel good about leaving your home. This is a historic property with purbeck flag stones and Welsh slate on the kitchen floor. The stove is as wide as your arms. There are wild pheasants in the fields and silent nights nestled in a hidden valley a bit off the main road. This a place where ruins of the past sit on the land beside a welcoming farmhouse. Great for introverts, writers, couples, families, and solo travelers. Backpackers will love it."

Lulworth Cove Inn

10/10 Excellent
"We loved our stay at the Lulworth Cove. The parking wasn’t free and it was a bit difficult but doable. The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. The restaurant was very good and the area was beautiful and very walkable. There are several trails along the cliffs and the coast and we felt very safe walking around. Having to lug our suitcases up 2 flights of stairs was difficult but because we prefer to stay in older, more historic buildings, not having a lift was expected. I would definitely stay here again."

"Really enjoyed a weekend with my daughter, grandchildren and pet dog. We found all the staff,especially in the restaurant very friendly and helpful. The site was nicely kept and we would all love to return. Although we booked through Vrbo Durdle Door caravan park sent emails with all the information we needed. The only downside was not being able to book for 2 nights and having to pay for 3 even though we left on the Sunday."
