"Characterful, nice decor, tall ceilings, Victorian property. Food was really good, breakfast was awesome, staff were really good, friendly and attentive. We'd booked for two adults and a child through expedia, when we arrived the system just showed a double master room. The duty manager fortunately understood our situation and sorted out a child food out bed, which is what we'd expected."
"Wonderful stay for a birthday celebration. The hotel is perfect for kids, it exceeded our expectations on every detail. A big thank you to Karen who was absolutely lovely and even got our toddler eating pasta when he was not listening to us!! We will be back. "
"We had a great time, the staff were attentive and friendly. The food was good and the room perfect. We could highly recommend a stay at The Red Lion, you won't be disappointed. "
"If you want a break away from the hustle this is the perfect tonic. Staff could not be more friendly or accommodating. An idyllic setting, walk down to the pebble beach or use this as a base to drive to the nearby places and come back and enjoy the wonderful food/drinks in the spacious gardens. Thank you!"
"Lovely hospitality and wonderful time spent for a few days to unwind. The hosts were really lovely and ensured a smooth and relaxed stay. Close to touristy activities. Would highly recommend 👌 "
"Perfect location for exploring the SW Coastal path and beaches of a beautiful part of Dorset. Sea view from a modern clean and comfortable room. Steps down to the beach - quiet compared to central Swanage. Easy access onto the downs and coastal path. Excellent breakfast. Really friendly helpful staff."
