Bishops Cottage

Great stay and wonderful breakfast

An amazing time with the most beautiful views over the bay especially to watch sunrise. Perfect location to go for walks to durdle door. Special memories made here. Would definitely recommend.

Excelente place, good to stay away from the busy capitals cities

Friendly owner and great breakfast

The pool house/shed that we stayed in looked to be lovely in a beautiful location, but when we were shown to the dwelling it was like a pool shed and the door was wide open which we thought nothing necessarily of at the time. We dropped our bags off and hastened out to get something to eat, as we were warned that there was a limited amount of eateries and might not be available. On our return, a few hours later, when we opened the door there was a terrible smell of damp/mould, it being as late in the evening as it was we felt forced to stay, but the smell of damp was terrible and caused a very poor nights sleep, as everytime i turned toward the wall the stench was terrible. It isnt fit for human habitation in the state that its in, on a further inspection the following morning signs of the problem were more obvious

We were unable to stay at this facility due to illness incurred on our trip . However, this understanding and workable business allowed us to obtain a refund for half the stay . Thank you ever so much . You have a perfect location for the outstanding area of West Lulworth. Again very grateful for your kindness

I don’t liked smell of dog in bedroom I will book bedroom without pets area

Hotel stay was good but we were 3 including my 2 year old kid and I paid extra 40 to hambury room eventhough we were not using too much energy and any of the extra bed. We enjoyed the breakfast very well. The pool which was allowed was not at all clean and we can’t even use it may be because off season they didn’t managed to clean. The wifi was not working on the first day and later we need to remind them the next day and she didn’t even bother to ask whether it is ok or not.

Friendly and hospitable staff. Great stay!

Härligt litet ställe med tillhörande hund och katt. Den som inte gillar katter bör inte bo här. Katten tar sig in i rummen om mam lämnar ett fönster på glänt. Men den är snäll och går när man säger ifrån. Mysigt. Stor fin pool med utsikt över havet

Extremely quaint, amazing location, friendly people.

The property has a wonderful location. The room we stayed in needs some TLC particularly in the bathroom. It is a quirky place full of character and hosted by nice people.

The cottage is in a prime location and has great views of Lulworth Cove. The cottage is just very tired looking inside and out. The accommodation is shared with the family owners who reside on the top floor, but do make use of all other areas of the cottage, including the communal TV, Bar and games room. The pool was available, but also looks tired and needs a good clean as the water was murky. We stayed in the boat house, which is seperate from the main building and both double beds within were very comfy with nice bed linen, ensuring a good nights sleep. Again, inside the boat house the creature comforts were just not up to a high standard, with the TV not able to pick up any Guest wifi, the paintwork not at a high level, the bathroom flooring was all water stained and bath panel coming away. Also the curtain (not curtains) in the bedroom overlooking the cove would not shut properly, so people walking around the pool area could see into our room, as there was only one curtain on the pole, which let in light both sides of the curtain when shut. That said, the cottage is a lovely place to stay, with the family being very welcoming and nice to talk to. The breakfast was of a great standard and the speed of getting your breakfast was very good. The honesty bar is well stocked and is a nice touch if you fancy a couple of drinks and a game of darts. The cottage is beautiful, it just needs some money spent and some TLC.

Family home not a hotel!! Key point!! Super friendly people. Very helpful and chilled. Some communal areas needed a spring clean. Pool is lovely but not heated which is a shame. Location is unreal. Ice cream to die for!!

Pros: -hosts were absolutely lovely, accommodating, friendly and very welcoming, cannot fault them at all. -beautiful scenery around the cove -VERY comfortable large bed - lovely full English breakfast - really good powerful shower in our room Cons: - swimming pool was green along the bottom and did not look very inviting so avoided using it. - local restaurants had bad reviews and didn't look good for food at all so had to drive 20 minutes out to get a nice dinner -our bedding had a yellow stain on the sheets and there were flies flying round the entrance hall when we arrived, so didn't feel overly clean in general -the whole place feels like it could do with a bit of money spent on a revamp, to modernise everything, especially the pool area, as it's such a beautiful location it could do with updating. .. I can imagine if it was all redone outside with a nice bar area, modern patio and sun loungers with parasols, it would go down very well with guests and people would travel for miles to stay and use it! Over all it was a nice stay and I think the hosts are just so lovely, they make it what it is and make it feel like a homely place to be!

Very nice

Lovely stay, very helpful owners and right in the heart of the bay! Great food options literally on your doorstep and a great place for near Durdle Door. Highly recommend!

What a find! For some reason it didn’t quite click that the hotel was literally on Lulworth Cove until we got there. Gorgeous views, lovely swimming pool which we had to ourselves every time we used it and lovely Lulworth Cove beach just a minute’s walk away. Nice cafes and pubs all within a few minute’s walk so once the car was parked in the public car park just down the road it didn’t move till we left. Owners and staff all lovely people. We will be back next year.

We booked the pool room which was perfect for us. Lovely comfortable bed & breakfast was delicious. Great place to stay.

- Water gets dangerously hot, like it will burn you (well over the industry standard 60c) - Not very clean, there is a tray in the room that’s covered in mess, the side of the table is all pulled away. - Not very happy with the condition of the room to the cost. - Toilet seat kept coming off. - When we arrived the manager was telling us when hadn’t paid, when we had..Not the welcoming you want. - Radiator was never on so put towels were still wet and never dry. - Great if you want to be a 2 min walk from the cove, not so great if you want what you’re paying for.
