A cosy, characterful and quiet place to stay, very close to the sea, surrounded by beautiful scenery and within a short drive of nearby towns and attractions.

Lovely
Welcoming, really loved that there was a fridge in hallway for fresh milk and bottle water. Did find dead flies or moths on the roll up blind and a tooth retainer on the floor. But had a lovely time, very cute and relaxing .

Very enjoyable stay
Lovely stay. The room was clean but a little tired, nice sea view and you could hear the sea with the window open. The staff were extremely welcoming and friendly. The food at the hotel was excellent, we ate there for three nights!. Breakfast is very good too. Very convenient for walks and Chesil Beach. You could stay there and not use your car.
