We enjoyed our time at the Old methodist Chapel. Great location for Durdle Door, Lulworth Cove and the Jurassic Coast. Would recommend visiting Dancing Ledges seawater swimming pool, It's a 30 minute drive away. Thank you

Very nice place- warm, cosy and very quirky shower. Nicely equipped with board games, lovely welcome hamper and coffee that definitely woke us up in the morning! Good location in a nice little community - easy to get to other spots, like tearooms (we went to The Old Schoolhouse-20 minutes away - 10/10) and not too far from the main beach. Thank you
