Lovely mini-break
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

The Rookery was superb. Friendly welcome, lovely room, comfortable bed, all spotlessly clean and attractively decorated, and well-cooked breakfast with lots of options (the black pudding especially recommended!). Top class - we intend to go back.

Amazing B&B in Swanage
The Rookery was the best B&B we have stayed in anywhere in the UK. Our room was immaculate, the bed was very comfortable and the breakfasts were cooked perfectly with a wide range of choice. Our hosts, Alan and Charlene were very friendly and really made us feel welcome. Would definitely stay with them again.
