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.
