We booked a 3 night stay at Castle Inn to explore the Jurassic coast. The hotel was ideally located with the coastal walks just a short distance walk away. The hotel staff were welcoming and attentive. The room was lovely. Food was delicious and potions were generous. I would definitely stay here again if I was back in the area.

The Castle Inn is a beautiful old thatched building. Our room had character but very little natural light so we needed the lights turned on whenever we were in the room. A night light in the bathroom would have been helpful as we had to navigate steps down into it in the dark if we didn't want to put the bathroom lights on in the middle of the night. There was no good light for applying make; natural or artificial. We found the room too warm despite the radiator being turned off and the window open. Due to a safety stay, the window didn't open far. There was a fan available, which was great, but no suitable plug points for the length of cord, and I couldn't get the remote control to work which meant I couldn't increase the fan speed. The mattress was comfortable but the pillows weren't. The room was clean and comfortable and the decor was lovely. We ate dinner in the restaurant and found the food was pretty average, though the staff were lovely. We felt the room and dinner were expensive for what was on offer. The staff were helpful and friendly. We paid £256 and £227 for a Saturday and Sunday night in October.

My wife and I recently had two lovely nights at The Castle Inn. Our room was a good size with tea/coffee facilities and a mini-fridge. The bathroom was very clean and modern with Bramley toiletries. The downstairs bar and restaurant were both very nice, with several areas and nooks. The bar served some great English ales, and also had a good wine list. The food in the restaurant was very, very good - some very interesting dishes on the menu, and very well prepared. Simon, Callum and the rest of the staff were very helpful and friendly. On our first morning we had an early local event to get to, so they provided us with a "Grab & Go" breakfast we could take with us. On the Friday evening there was live music in the bar. We highly recommend The Castle Inn and we will be going back.

4 of us on a walking trip: 3 thought the rooms great. One of us got a very small dark room, mostly filled with a big bed, and was disappointed…it was claustrophobic and cluttered… she did however get a nice bathroom. Breakfast lovely although the service was a bit slow. Booking, checkout, common rooms, staff all great

We had room number 8, which wasn't really one of the nicest rooms, as the exhaust in the toilet was combined with the kitchen exhaust, which meant that the toilet and room smelled of fried fat. Everything else was top and well maintained in the room and the breakfast was great and the service too. The dinner is also great! So if you don't get room 8, you have great accommodation.

We've been visiting the Castle Inn for many years, but this was our first time under the new owners. I have to say, while the changes are very positive, the Castle hasn't lost any of its charm. Still very professionally run and well stafffed, with everyone doing all they could to ensure a pleasant stay.

This is a top quality pub/small boutique hotel. Rooms are clean and spacious. Great facilities with everything you need for a short stay in the cove. Only thing I would change are the pillows from polyester to feather to make it first rate.. food is superb and the chef is worth his weight in gold. Dinner excellent and breakfast is hard to beat in my opinion. You have to book especially over the holiday weekends otherwise you will have no chance. It’s a 12 min walk to the cove and I would recommend a swim in the morning and then breakfast. Can’t beat it.

THIS IS A REAL PUB! As soon as I breached the threshold of the pub I felt a nostalgic sense of warmth and home. We, being the pains in arses that we are did not book in advance. However, despite being busy, because of the dazzling atmosphere of the pub, we were warmly accommodated to a sweet little table for two. Our host was most excellent, friendly, good humoured and with good knowledge of the pubs menu. The menu, spectacular! as I wondered what to eat, I noticed just how well everything was paired and balanced, ALL dishes sounded sumptuous. An excellent menu with Pub classics and a modern fine dining dashed through. We had the monkfish and chicken supreme and I tell you flavour reigned supreme that evening, it was most splendid and reasonable for such quality. 10/10 Five star A+ We will make hasty return to this beloved tavern.

What a great place to spend the night. There was a secure lockup for our trusty tandem. Easy walk down to see Lulworth cove - walking along the road was fine with a separate footway for pedestrians. We did try a footpath first up on the hill to the west but the section down to cove has fallen away so don't bother trying that option! Dinner was tasty. Breakfast also good, not a buffet style btw.

An Unforgettable Experience at The Castle Inn Pub & Rooms Nestled in the heart of our favourite town, The Castle Inn Pub & Rooms stands as a beacon of exceptional hospitality and charm. Our family has visited this delightful establishment numerous times, and each visit leaves us eagerly anticipating the next. From the moment you step through the door, you are enveloped in a warm and welcoming atmosphere that feels like a home away from home. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, always going the extra mile to ensure our comfort and satisfaction. Their child-friendly attitude is a standout feature, making it an ideal spot for families. Our little ones are always treated with genuine kindness and patience, whether it’s providing colouring books at the table or accommodating special meal requests with a smile. Speaking of meals, the food at The Castle Inn is nothing short of spectacular. The fish and chips, a classic British staple, is served with perfectly crispy batter, chunky chips, and a side of delicious mushy peas. Each bite is a testament to the quality and care put into their menu. The atmosphere of the pub itself enhances the dining experience, with its rustic charm and cosy nooks inviting guests to relax and enjoy their meal at a leisurely pace. One of the most commendable aspects of The Castle Inn is their unwavering commitment to guest satisfaction. On multiple occasions, the staff have gone above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect, whether it was offering local tips and advice or accommodating last-minute changes to our reservations. This level of service is rare and deeply appreciated, making us loyal patrons.

The staff were very friendly and helpful and it was very clean however the rooms were very tired and the first room we were put in was so bad we wanted to check out. We got moved to a much better room but the decor was still quite tired which is a shame as it's a lovely old pub with great staff. The breakfast was ok but not great again a shame as the pizza we had was very good. So overall we would not go back but the staff especially the cleaner worked hard to give us a good stay.

Beyond awful. Honestly please avoid this place, I can’t even describe how bad our experience was here. Immature, ‘attitude problem’ staff, terrible overcooked greasy food, surprise service charges for them to just slap a plate down in front of you. We still had to go and get your own cutlery and sauces for the privilege of paying a £4 service fee. I’d imagine experiences in low decile Weatherspoons are probably more favourable. They make you all sit outside to give an illusion that this place is full, if it wasn’t for the constant tourist traffic I’d imagine this place would have no customer or repeat business at all.

I ordered the stake was told it can only be cooked one way which I find really bizarre for 25 quid it came out and on my daughters life was THE worst stake I’ve ever had proper proper poor quality tasted like burnt charcoal and it was diced up and it was tiny for 25 it’s a complete joke.

Sheer disappointment, when having such a high prices on the menu items you are expected to get what you pay for, this is not the case at this pub… the food is very standard nothing about it what so ever that made it special, was shocked when after having to go to the bar to order I was then told to get my own cutlery ! Due to the lovely sunny day we sat in the garden to eat and NOT ONCE did anyone come out to ask how the food was and our plates were not taken for nearly a hour after we had finished, I was half expecting them to expect us to bring our own plates in and maybe even wash up after … my brother had the steak and I was genuinely mind blown at the size and taste, medium rare inside and the outside was so burnt it over flavoured the entire steak the portion was tiny little slices, the menu come across like the peppercorn sauce was at no additional cost then was told the steak with the sauce would cost £27.50, the whole experience just felt generally offensive.

We called immediately apologising and asking if we could have a discount for the date we needed and a very unpleasant lady told us that our booking was not refundable and so what was done was done... It's not about refundable or not refundable: we made a mistake! The hotel had the right to get our 320 POUNDS (!!!!) but hey, let's stay human... I hope you enjoy our 320 pounds, anyway.

We have had a wonderful 3 day break here. The staff are amazing, the atmosphere cosy and welcoming and the food is excellent.- breakfast lunch and dinner. Can't recommend this place highly enough.

Stayed here for a weekend break. Not the best start as the gas was out so a stripped down dinner menu and no hot water, luckily all was well in the morning and fixed. With a dinner reservation made could have gone the extra mile to call and notify as could've then considered different options, but was too late to arrange anything by the time arrived. However didn't put a damper on the stat too much, the room was beautiful and clean and the breakfast was by far one of the best I'd had staying anywhere in recent memory. Happily stay here again.

We were so impressed with The Castle Inn. On our first night there had been an issue with the delivery of Gas and food prep, heating etc was difficult. The team were open and honest and managed the situation professionally. Service was amazing and the team were all superb. The food was good although we had an issue which was dealt with effectively. I asked for a number of changes on my meals due to dietary restrictions and this was no issue and was provided for me. Our room was beautifully clean, cosy and quirky- loved it and slept well. There was every attention to detail. Had a lovely break and planning a return visit soon.

To celebrate my Husband’s significant birthday, I booked a table for 9 of us, on a wet & windy Saturday in late November. Our party consisted of 5 adults, two teens, and 2 youngsters. The menu suited all of us, and once we’d decided what we were all having, we settled down into the lovely atmosphere, looking out to sea. The ambience is lovely. Food was fabulous, service was great and we really enjoyed the evening. Hats off to Jaime and the team. Happy to highly recommend this restaurent in a unique location in Swanage.

Didn't sit inside the pub as it was a lovely day, so sat in the beer garden which was lovely. The person that served me at the bar was really friendly and chatty 😊 would definitely visit again and would recommend 😄
