Exterior does not give the best impression when you approach an empty car park but don't be put off, once in the hotel is well presented and the staff very helpful. Rooms are perfect for a stop off and a good breakfast.

Lovely hotel
I wanted to take my granddaughter to Weymouth, it’s about 15 miles outside of Weymouth bay but there is plenty of parking at the bay. The hotel was lovely and all the staff were friendly, however it wasn’t ideal for my trip as I didn’t really want to drive into Weymouth.

Weekend break! A+++
Had a great stay here. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Evening meal was fantastic. Highly recommend the local steak if it's on the specials board. Well stocked bar with a huge selection of spirits. Filled up on the full English breakfast each morning. Well worth adding that option! Outside and car park could do with a spruce up but don't let that put you off, the interior is fantastic!

Never again look before you book
I didn’t even make it into the front door. As we drove in there was one car in the car park and no signs of life as you looked inside. My first impression was that all the windows were shuttered up but it was the grey murky curtains it didn’t look appealing. I always take things on first impression and that was it. Very run down out side. Yet the pictures on the site make it look very appealing and smart
