Super comfy and relaxing

Room was a great size, very clean and bed was super comfy. You are next to a road where you can hear cars passing, but it wasn’t an issue for me at all. Lovely breakfast in the morning and the pub food was lovely

Great B&B

Lovely new/refurbished room, great friendly staff, excellent breakfast, great pub grub for evening meals. A couple of minor moans - drinks were quite pricey and the the pub is located several miles from Poole/Bournemouth so not ideal just for a night out. However, it is in a good central position for possibly exploring further afield to Swanage, Corfe Castle and beyond.
