Our third visit to the Hermitage and as ever we had a great stay. Thanks again to Roger and Sue for your wam hospitality. Sue, the recommendations for that walk to Dancing Ledge was absolutely spot on.... and that cooked breakfast just gets better Roger! See you again in the near future we hope.

Having read the reviews by other guests I was not prepared for the poor standard of accommodation at this B and B. We stayed as part of a group of eight walking the final part of the S W Coast Path and this was, by far, the worst place we stayed at. The owner was very pleasant but the rooms... More

Excellent couple of days with Roger and Sue - like coming home!!!! Internet access has improved tremendously - everything super - moved on to Devon for the rest of the week - but the next b and b not a patch on Roger and Sue - thank you both for your wonderful welcome!

Friendly and welcoming owners, Roger and Sue, who recommended some places in the area to visit. Room fine apart from being a little cold, but it was mid September when we stayed. House is full of antiques, which was like stepping back in time, so for us, it was quite a refreshing change. It was clean and spacious and the... More

Four of us (2 couples) stayed here for 2 nights (minimum stay) recently and found it a pleasant enough experience especially at the price. We had just come out of an awesome B&B in Wells (Canon Grange) so it had a lot to live up to! The owner was friendly and courteous, the bedding was clean and crisp, the breakfast... More

Our third visit to a b and b which never disapoints - lovely sea view from our front bedroom, amazing breakfasts every day, nothing is too much trouble, even shared their own (Rogers) special jam when my husband mentioned he wasn;t keen on marmalade, a couple with amazing local knowledge who make each of their guests feel like friends. TV... More

Visited Swanage for a couple of nights,hubby, me and 12 year old. Found Roger and Sue very friendly and welcoming, nothing to much trouble. The B&B does not have ensuite facitilties but that does not bother us, in a nice quiet area of the town and only acouple of minutes walk into the town down hill, abit of a struggle... More

Having had a really good week here in June = we booked again for a few days in late August/early September - another warm welcome - made to feel like friends rather than paying guests - huge breakfasts, masses of local knowledge and a real interest in their customers. The lack of tv in the rooms is no real hardship... More

We have stayed at the Hermitage 6 or 7 times in the last few years, and find it welcoming, friendly, clean and convenient for our needs. It is central and only a few minuets walk (downhill) to a great choice of shops, restaurants and pubs. We use the B/B as a base to explore this beautiful area of Dorset, and... More
