The Rookery

Alan was extremely welcoming and helpful throughout our stay at the Rookery. Swanage has instantly become one of our favourite places in the UK.

Had a wonderful stay. The room was lovely and comfy and the breakfast was delicious.

Started off the weekend well, clean and comfortable. Room was cold as the weather had changed to rain but the heating did not come on. Breakfast was good. The second night was cut short as the owners dog was left home alone and continued to howl and bark for hours. After trying to contact the owners without success we decided to leave as sleep was impossible and hearing a dog in distress was very unsettling. We left at 9pm for a 2hr drive home. Had no reply from owners after leaving 2 messages on their emergency numbers and sending texts and contacting through Hotels.com requesting a refund for the second night. Met the resident staying in room 1 on our way out who was also feeling concerned for the dog and irritated by the noise.

Lovely hosts, very welcoming. Breakfast was lovely too.

Lovey clean room and friendly hosts. Booking I was disorganised as not checked website we booked through so not expecting us. Ordered a drink and waited for arrival only to to charged ,

Had an excellent stay and have stayed previously!

Very nice B and B.

Great friendly b&b ideally located in swanage walking distance to the sea off road parking lovely relaxed atmosphere 😎

Beautifully kept, great host in Alan, and Charlene did breakfasts to perfection with quality local produce. High standards of cleanliness

A lovely family run business,I was made to feel very welcome and nothing was too much for the hosts. They went above and beyond. Lovely room ,bathroom with very nice shower gel,shampoo and cream. Everywhere was extremely clean and the breakfast was cooked fresh and arrived quickly.Only a few minute walk to beach. Would definitely recommend this guest house.

Excellent

Wonderful blackpudding and the Swanage Jazz Festival was worth coming back to.

Extremely helpful, friendly proprietors. Very well appointed. I shall definately return ! Thoroughly recommended. You can't do better.

A lovely place to stay. Wouldn’t change a thing! Thank you. PS. Try the sausages.

My room was very clean and the bathroom looked as though it had just been renewed. Alan was very good and I would happily return.

Excellent stay.

Very friendly welcome, great breakfasts, a short stroll to the beach in Swanage and the town

Perfect base from which to explore Swanage and the surrounding area. Two-minute walk to the beach, and a short stroll along the seafront to the shops etc. Alan is a very friendly host, our room was lovely and breakfast was delicious. Everywhere was spotlessly clean. No hesitation in recommending The Rookery

Small friendly BnB for a few days rest.

Everything I needed to make a two day walking holiday comfortable including a great breakfast.
