About the hotel
In extensive gardens overlooking Swanage Bay, this unique family-run hotel combines the atmosphere of a traditional country house with all the amenities of a modern hotel.
Purbeck House Hotel was once a convent. The 38 bedrooms are divided between the main house, constructed in 1875, and the newly-built Louisa Lodge. All of the bedrooms are en suite and some have sea or garden views.
During your stay you can explore the wonderful surroundings, including the seafront on the World Heritage Jurassic Coast (300 yards) and the bustling centre of Bournemouth (15 miles).
