This is a great B & B, and surely sets the standard of what more & more people are going to expect from B & Bs in the future.

We stayed for 2 nights this weekend just gone. The host David & Dianne were friendly, welcoming and always on hand to open the bar, fire up the hot tub and give advice on taxis, places to eat, walks etc.

The premises are bright, spotlessly clean, and modern in feel. There is car parking for every room, and the bar is well stocked in a really pleasant lounge with loads of local info and books etc.

The room is great. All very modern with a real feeling of wanting you to enjoy your stay. The little extras include chocolates, digital flat screen TV, modern massaging shower, plenty of storage and everything feels new, modern, bright and clean. There is even a room service menu (although we didn't use it) which I have never come across in a B&B in the UK before.

Breakfast is brilliant. Plenty of choice including a childrens menu, local organic option (for a small supplementary charge) porridge, brownies, muffins, fresh fruit etc etc. The traditional English option is very well cooked, plentiful, really tasty and not greasy. Again served in a bright fresh modern room.

The hot-tub is a fine example of 'that little bit extra'. Available to suit the guest in a lovely garden with cool lighting, and in typical fashion for this place, you feel pampered in fluffy white robes and slippers.

We paid £75 for our room with a good view of the Purbeck hills and will definitely be back.

The Swanage Haven and its host genuinely want to please - and they do - and then they please that little bit more.

We had a wonderful 2 night stay at the Swanage Haven in February. The room was cosy and luxurious and the shower was excellent. Our hosts, Dianne and David, could not have been more helpful and friendly. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious. I would definitely recommend the Swanage Haven very highly indeed.

The room and the meal were better quality than we expected and we really enjoyed our night there.

My Husband I have stayed at the Swanage Haven several times and have never been disappointed in any way. Its easily the best place to stay in the area as we have stayed in several places around Swanage in the last few years and nothing comes close in the slightest.

The hot tub is wonderful, after a long journey in the car to get there we were able to just slip into our swimwear and into the robe and slippers provided and wander through the mediteranean inspired garden to the steaming tub of loveliness waiting for us (the lager and vodka and coke was obviously a big bonus too!!).

The rooms are absolutely brilliant, so clean and fresh with big snuggly beds and spacious bathrooms with all of the usual toiletries, tea and coffee and biscuits etc. There is also a lot more channels on the telly than just the usual 5 which pleased my hubby no end!

The breakfasts are absolutely 5 star, can't fault them at all. Full english or continental or a mixture. I couldn't resist and had the full english and fresh strawberries and melon and a chocolate brownie (well I was away and calories don't count then right?!).

We go back everytime we need a couple of days complete rest and relaxation, Absolutely worth a visit.
