Fabulous location, just across from Knoll Beach.
Tasty breakfast. Loved the retro, quirky feel of the hotel and its fabulous sea views. It would be nice if the new owners spent money on improving and refurbishing the hotel as is, rather than on trying to turn it into something different.

Lovely location, view towards Old Harry rocks is wonderful
Used the indoor pool and sauna
Was very relaxing
Menu choice limited as had run out of lots of the dishes on the menu
Service quite slow an hour wait between starter and mains
Room pleasant
Car parking difficult and couldn’t get a space near our garden room so had to walk across uneven surfaces and not well lit

A one time grand-ish hotel is now looking a little tired but it’s in a great spot, perfect for walking and water sports. Staff friendly and helpful. Waiting service needs polishing. Restaurant food good.

Like me, the hotel is showing its age and would benefit from a spot of TLC.
The hotel appears to be popular with oldies, but there are on-site facilities for the younger element.
The buffet breakfast is excellent, and the staff conscientiously helpful.
We didn’t use the main restaurant as accompanied guests' dogs aren't permitted. Understandable.
But we were given to understand by other guests that the food served therein is excellent.
A great base for exploring the Jurassic Coast.
A ride on on the #50 Purbeck Breezer is to be recommended, especially if you benefit from an OAP's concessionary bus pass.

The Knoll house is like stepping back in time.
We loved the history of the place.Our room was lovely with a comfy bed and hot shower,much nicer than I imagined from the exterior.The breakfasts were excellent ! The setting is wonderful.Unfortunately the evening meal is excellent but a bit over priced for us.

As others have said, Knoll House is like stepping back in time! The best things about it are it's location and the outdoor pool. The food is also good. Other things are a bit tired. Our room hadn't been cleaned very well and the doors all rattled in the wind!

This was our second visit to Knoll House and after our recent stay we will definitely be booking a third.
The location is stunning, such beautiful beaches and wonderful views. We were blessed again with such warm sunny days during our stay. The unique hotel, stuck in time, with the 'retro' interior and quirky features make it all the more appealing for me.
The beautiful outdoor pool is my daughter's favourite activity. Knoll house is the perfect place to bring a family for a short stay.
The staff are friendly and provide excellent customer service. Breakfast is delicious, a great choice of quality food to choose.
A truly wonderful stay.
