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
Traditional with bay windows yet modern ring door bell, and porch chairs to sit and chill on. VERY spacious inside. Good sized room with traditional sash windows and smart TV, modern ensuite.
Our second time at the Rookery, and just as good as the first! Everything immaculate - five stars hardly does it justice! Great welcome, great breakfast, superb location, especially for beach lovers - I'm sure we'll be back again.
