I stayed in The Canford with my cousins to attend a family wedding at the nearby Italian Villa. The hotel was the nicest friendliest small hotel I’ve ever stayed in. The staff were very welcoming and helpful and the service at breakfast was perfect. I would love to visit again sometime and would thoroughly recommend it.
My room had everything you could possible need in it - hairdryer, (and a mirror beside a socket which is not always the case), ironing board, well stocked little bar and tea and coffee making facilities, very comfortable bed and pillows and was nicely decorated. It was also well stocked with toiletries.
It was a short walk to the beautiful long beach where we walked along the prom in both directions.
Place is spotless, oh soooo comfy beds. I had the best nights sleep in a long while. Great atmosphere downstairs during ooening hours. Breafast to die for!!
So glad we booked this place rather than a large hotel in the area that we were considering. The room was gorgeous with a big bath tub (we chose one of the big rooms). Check in was easy, staff were v friendly and accommodating despite looking after the restaurant too (special mention to Ashmi who waited on us a couple of times in the restaurant). Food is fab, especially the Sunday roast. We managed to get parking on each of the 3 days/nights we were there. The only thing to note is that the cleaners only do a “quick once over” in your rooms every morning. Fab stay and will definitely stay again and recommend. Location is perfect. We walked from there to Old Harry’s Rocks. Visited Worbarrow Bay, Lulworth Cove, Durdle Door and a vineyard all within a short driving distance. Enjoy!
Beautiful room and lovely food (especially breakfast!) but I was woken at 3am by someone moving furniture around in the bar area/restaurant so not the best nights sleep. I guess it was bad luck for me as I was right above the area where this was going on for an hour so will try another room next time.
We stayed in Room 1 which was delightful. The staff had thought of pretty much everything. The staff were extremely welcoming and friendly. We ate in the pub and had an excellent roast meal. The location was great for exploring the coast on foot.
Bed very comfortable. Had a good night sleep. Breakfast was excellent. Bar area very pleasant. Enjoyed the cocktails.
Good variety of snacks and drinks in the room. The bill was incorrect but was rectified.would happily stay again.
It was a very clean and very well maintained hotel, great decor and furnishings and food and drink offerings very good also. Lovely location, friendly and chatty staff and they went over and above to accommodate my stay.
Such an amazing stay at Canford. I stayed in Room no.1 which was absolutely gorgeous - I’d 100% recommend.
Lunch was great, breakfast was great. Staff were helpful and the pub had a really nice atmosphere - perfect for my needs which were to be able to do some work whilst holding a conversation with a few drinks 10/10 🎺
