What a lovely stay, we planned to stay in our campervan however our heater had broken so we booked at the railway cottage at the last minute. The host was so welcoming, she promptly arranged the room, which was totally spotless and clean, bright and modern within en suite, a very quiet night, and comfortablw bed, tea and coffee for the morning plus a biscoff. Ery conveiniently located near the town centre. Would definitely stay here again.

Stayed for one night due to a family gathering. Clean, tidy and for value for money. Spot on. If you are looking for clean, tidy place to stay and on a budget this place is perfect for a night or two. Places nearby to grab breakfast. Each room had en-suite and a fridge.

Brilliant stay for one night. Great value, had everything we needed. Warm, clean and comfortable. Easy parking opposite for £1 for 24 hours. Walking distance to sea front, steam railway and town centre. We loved this place and will return.

We both found this place a great place to stay, we have 3 dogs, all were welcome. The room was clean tidy and well presented fully functional with no problems at all. A welcoming place to stay in the heart of swanage and highly recommended. For a weekend break out of season as our visit was, it works perfectly.

Room indeed compact but well laid out and more than adequate for both of us and Dave the whippet. Clean and tidy, quiet and convenient. Will happily use again. Close to town and as mentioned huge car park opposite.

Pretty central, clean & tidy place. Extra tea and coffee available (without the need to pester anyone for it). It was quieter and cleaner than I expected - having read some of the previous reviews. It suited our needs and I would definitely recommend this place for a short break.
