"This is a very friendly and well-managed hotel with spacious rooms and good service. The location on top of the cliffs above Swanage Bay gives fabulous views both from sea-facing rooms and the well-maintained grass terrace. Steps lead down directly to the sandy beach."
"Unbelievably cheap stay. Lovely en suite room with sea view. Staff very friendly and helpful. My first stay in a YHA in nearly 30 years and experience was so good I’m looking to come again. Only gripe would be internet signal in rooms a bit poor "
"The lodgings are in fact an appartement not whole house as advertised. Not is it 3 minutes from the beach unless you have a car. It has not been modernised but is spacious and inexpensive. "
"Amazing Cabin, which was super comfy and extremely clean. A little garden with 2 seats and table . A patio doors looking onto a very pretty garden. Right near to Swanage Beach which was perfect. Fully recommend. "

"Good Hotel great location for the beach with Restaurants close by. Poor is excellent 25 metres in length. Room very comfortable with a sea view too. "
"Bed & pillows weren't the most comfortable but all linen was spotless.
Only had one dinner - the salad was good but the rest of the food wasn't terrific.
The Saturday evening entertainment was very good.
If going to the same area again I wouldn't hesitate to seek accommodation there."
"The room was clean and bright with lovely air-conditioning which is very important in Summer. The breakfast was wonderful, I enjoyed it very much especially the waffle. Parking was safe as we needed a code to assess the parking area. "
"Nice and clean hotel. Friendly staff. Nice big pool for kids. The pub and grill restaurant downstairs did really tasty veg and fish options. Was a good location about 50 mins drive to durdle door and lulworth cove really worth seeing. "
"Although the rooms need updating, we very much enjoyed our stay at the trouville.
Breakfast was of good quality, the staff , fast and efficient.
Helpful reception staff.
The pool and sauna a pleasant suprise."
