Purbeck House is right in centre of Swanage and a great location for exploring the area. It is an old historic building that dominates the town. It has good views and interesting grounds.

We loved Purbeck House and were intrigued by its history and glad to see it embraced its history. We stayed in the annexe which met all our needs but if ever the opportunity to return would love to stay in the main hotel. We found all the staff to be very friendly and informative and felt they were fully invested in providing the guests with an enjoyable experience.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The Victorian building was remarkable. The tiled flooring in the reception area and the row of servants' bells gave one a sense of stepping back in time. We were in a modern annex to the house, which was immaculate and comfortable. If there was a restaurant it would have been perfect, however there were restaurants close by, and the sea front was also just a short walk.

Liked: Staff & service
I didn't like that we were charged for breakfast on the second day, (which we booked directly with the hotel , not on Expedia like the first day) when we didn't have it. Obviously the money was taken from our account before breakfast instead of waiting for the list to come from the dining room showing who had breakfast. Room and staff were lovely.
