We had the family room .. very large room and nice bathroom. The hotel has also a restaurant with good food (limited choice on the menu). The location is nice and the hotel has a large parking lot. Breakfast is very good with a large choice of food, including fish or more traditionnal English breakfast. a really nice place ...... More

My son and I stayed here in twin room. We had declined to stay in Weymouth and needed somewhere not too far away. Overall a not a bad place. Clean and resonably well decorated if a little on the tired side. The shower room was very small and materials used were pretty basic. Air conditioning unit was a bit noisy... More

My wife and I had driven nearly 1000 miles over the previous week and needed a place to stay on the Saturday before meeting some friends in Corfe on the Sunday. How wonderful to find a country hotel like Kemps. We received a friendly welcome from the proprietor, Ian Devine, and were shown to one of the largest and best... More

Well placed for exploring the area, it's on the A352 between Wool and Wareham, not in the village of East Stoke, so as a previous writer says there is some road and rail noise. Hospitality was very good.a The room we were in was clean and tidy but starting to show signs of age. As stated on another post, the... More

We spent a week here. The staff were friendly and helpful. I am on dialysis and a lot of equipment arrived in advance. There were fine with this and made sure I had everything I needed. the room was large and comfortable with a large en suite bathroom. The food was nicely cooked with quite a wide range of choices....

The place is OK and just that, I certainly do not believe it is worth anything near the cost of the room... More

Overall, this is a clean, friendly and warm hotel, and for us, a great central location to explore the County. We stayed in the Bridal Suite, which was well decorated and very warm, considering we went at the end of March 2012 when temperatures were well below average for the year. The "entertainment" shower, performed great as a shower, however... More

We spent a night there with my wife awaiting for the Tiger Day in Bovington Tank Museum. We used booking.com to arrange it and everything was flawless. Even we arrived just before the kitchen was to be closed, we were very well served with tasty Rib-eye steaks and marvelous local ale. Rooms (only 17 there) are spacious, clean and well... More

Let's set the scene. I'm British and like you, us British aren't ones to gush about anything remotely good. When things go wrong, then it's a different story. Then we become the best bloggers, telling everyone how bad a place is. So, for me to even write anything vaguely complimentary is as rare as a politician saying 'sorry'. What can... More
