Gretenham B&B

The owners were very nice and aimed to please, lovely breakfast too. The property was situated close to the town centre and beach.

Lovely B&B and Lou our host was soo nice. Room was clean and nicely decorated. Bathroom very small but it was functional

Great location, but parking not easy. Thankful the owners son gave up his space nearby for us. Good size room, we slept well. The shower was really easy to control and we had the best towels during our week away.. Really good breakfast, served in our room. Would recommend. Disappointed local pubs were not as we remembered them… lack of real ale… but we like the independent shops… Ate at the best chippy; The Fish Plaice.

Very friendly owners. Room small but great for 1 night and price reflects that. Breakfast was really gd . Would stay again .

For a one night stop over it was perfect. We were welcomed and treated as if we were booked in for a fortnight!! Could not fault the accommodation or the friendly service. Thank You.

Lovely clean, light and spacious room. Close to plenty of shops, pubs and restaurants but situated in quiet side street. Bespoke breakfast delivered to your room at a time of your choosing and was beautifully cooked and presented. Host was super friendly and helpful - all in all a great stay

Having breakfast in the room and being able to chose the time.

Very nice family and welcome. Super breakfast.

Beautifully presented, spotlessly clean, great central location, oh, and the breakfast is excellent with a lot of choice.

The Gretenham B&B in Swanage is clean, quiet, well-located and a great value. The best of it all are the hosts Lou and John, with their great advice for local sights and restaurants, warm welcome, comfortable, attractive rooms and an extensive breakfast menu that reflects Lou’s years as a restaurant owner. Be sure to ask about local walks - their library of guides/maps is a great resource.

Lovely room, good choice for breakfast and where to eat it. Good facilities, we had a very pleasant stay and would come back.

Arrived and was greeted by our friendly host who made us feel at home. Bed & breakfast was in walking distance of the town with plenty of eateries & pubs. Room was small by very comfy and had everything we needed. Breakfast was chosen from menu previous night and cooked freshly in morning. We were made to feel very welcome, would thoroughly recommend.

John & Lou were excellent hosts and very welcoming also they could not have been more helpful, including with suggestions and recommendations of were to eat in the evening. We were pleased that the area was so quiet at night and the breakfast was first class. We would not hesitate to recommend them and would be happy to return ourselves.

Had to book at last minute and was lu ly to find this place, really convenient for the town, great breakfast.would loved yo have stayed longer!

A very comfortable, spacious and clean room. The owners were friendly and helpful and the breakfast very tasty.

We were made to feel welcome. The room was very clean, relaxing and bright and airy. Breakfast served in our room was a nice touch. Near to the town, and beach. A lovely break.

We had a good visit to Gretenham B&B in Swanage. Our room was comfortable well designed and in a quiet road which is very steep.We were able to find street parking a short distance away.The breakfast was excellent with plenty of choices and served on very attractive pottery. Our hosts were welcoming , helpful and friendly.

We had a lovely one night stay at the Gretenham B&B towards the end of August. The location is so idea, you are just up the road from the main town centre of Swanage. The owner John is so lovely and really accommodating. I was suffering from a horrible ear infection the weekend that I stayed and had hardly slept the night we stayed. It was not a problem for John when I asked for a later check out to get myself together for the day head. The room was very clean and comfortable. Would highly recommend staying if you are visiting the beautiful seaside town of Swanage.

Home from home with a very welcoming host. Will stay again.

Nice location being so close to everything but very quiet at night. The owner john was very welcoming and made you feel at home straight away.
