The Hotel is just charming, both inside and out, it’s a bit of a time warp and visiting here is like stepping back in time. We were captivated by this like many other guests. The hotel is in the most wonderful elevated location with views across the sea and Knoll Beach just a short walk away. The staff throughout the hotel are so helpful. I had a number of special requests that were all put in place for us. This is such a bonus and made the trip so enjoyable. Excellent customer service. So many positives. It’s the type of place people return to over again. A real gem.
Situated on the Sandbanks Peninsula of Poole Harbour, this elegant hotel features a restaurant and panoramic views of Poole Bay. There is also free WiFi.

Breakfast was great. We would go back, but book direct with hotel. Then we could choose our room.
Relax in beautiful surroundings. Located in the heart of the Purbecks between Corfe Castle and Swanage, Kingston Country Courtyard offers some of the most beautiful views in Dorset.

The location high up in the Purbeck Hills is magnificent. The restaurant is excellent. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Being outside of town the place is very peaceful and quiet, yet within easy reach of attractions such as Corfe Castle and the steam railway and of towns such as Swanage and Wareham. The hotel staff are all friendly and helpful and seem to want you to enjoy your stay. The views from the hotel gardens are superb.
Less than 5 minutes’ walk from the sea, Robertsbrook Guest House is located opposite the Swanage steam railway station.

The hosts were very welcoming. Had fantastic suggestions of where to visit to help us enjoy our stay more.
We felt really welcome. The hotel was perfectly placed to enjoy Swanage.
This is a high quality holiday let. Nicky and Gary, the owners, were very accommodating, letting me park on their drive. The welcome pack was lovely and much appreciated. Beds were very comfy. A very enjoyable stay.

A bit hard to find, good job we had sat nav. the accomodation was so good, plenty of room & seating in own garden, leisure facilities free. whole area is wonderful. Receptionist helpful & polite. No bad points for us at all. plenty of walking areas, loads of cafes , bar food & restaurants in Swanage. Everywhere clean.Lots of different shops in Swanage & Poole. We had a trip on the steam train to Corfe casle & visited the model village in Corfe, young children would enjoy this fairy garden with its wild places & hidden surprises. A great area for those with dogs, they seem to be welcome everywhere including beaches, many public footpaths.

Good to have the freedom of self catering in a comfortable and clean caravan. Although we were situated near the entrance, we had to drive around the site to get to our caravan. This was challenging due to the hills, reception had drawn the route on a site map. We did not have far to walk along a narrow path to leave the site. I would try to book a caravan in a similar situation again to avoid a lot of hill walking. We were able to walk into Swanage but got a taxi from Bill's Taxis to return as it was uphill.
We enjoyed coffee and tea at Java coffee house. Restaurants were generally fully booked for an evening meal. We ate early at The Old Stables (booked) and Beavers Restaurant (did not book). Both were good meals with friendly and efficient service.
We took the bus from Swanage bus station to Durlston Country Park, had coffee and cake in the restaurant, sitting outside looking over the sea. Walked around the area, including the Great Globe and coastal path.
