That was well-maintained and well-appointed hotel set in amazing area, near to a sea of detritus, harbour at sandbanks and restaurant for breakfast for customers and staff. The location was particularly good and beautiful, you can visit an art gallery by walking. I ate at the attached restaurant near the venue.

Spent 2 nights here with my wife, had an amazing stay overall. The rooms were all generous-sized and modern for the twin beds. Particularly good location, it was just off public transport to Poole, the ferry to Swanage and Canford cliffs shops and restaurants and Swanage. Found time to see Compton Acres, that's relatively near the property.
