Top Purbeck Mineral and Mining Museum Hotel Reviews

Kingston Country Courtyard

8/10 Good

"Absolutely massive single room in a beautiful quiet area. Really convenient location for seeing the sights of the county. The wet room isn’t very practical and there isn’t much sound insulation. Neither of these bothered me too much though and I would happily stay again. Thank you!"

Spacious Coastal House with Stunning Sea Views N Near Sea & Sandy Beaches

10/10 Excellent

"A wonderful property which is excellently equipped and ideally situated. A great place for a family get together with a spacious and warm atmosphere. We highly recommend this property and Wendy is an excellent host."

The Lookout - panoramic views; log fire; ONE-dog-friendly, local beaches.

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at the Lookout. The property is beautifully furnished with everything you need. We took a small dog who really enjoyed the walled garden. The situation is very peaceful with rolling hills and amazing views. There are lots of wonderful pubs and restaurants in Corfe which is a few miles away. The hosts were very welcoming and helpful. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone!"

Mortons Manor

10/10 Excellent

"Our room was very clean. Plenty of parking. The staff were very attentive yet discreet. Our meals were excellent and well presented. All in all a most enjoyable stay and well recommended."

Beautiful large Georgian house with a big garden. Perfect for a family or two!

10/10 Excellent

"A joy to return to this lovely house. Full of character and ideally situated within the town. Another great stay thanks to David."

Cosy cottage located on the Isle of Purbeck

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely property, well equipped and central for sight-seeing."

Bankes Arms Hotel

8/10 Good

"Excellent location; on bus route and next to railway station. Excellent breakfast. Friendly, helpful staff. Only negative is that we had a room at the front of the hotel and the road is extremely busy throughout the day and night. If the windows are closed you do not hear the traffic but if they are open then you have little sleep. We had to keep the windows open as we stayed during the heat wave. Perhaps the hotel could provide fans during the summer months."

The Bear Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very relaxing stay with excellent restaurant meals..."

Purbeck cottage near Swanage & Studland - views of Corfe and I of Wight

10/10 Excellent
