We arrived after a long drive ready for pre-arranged early check-in with elderly disabled mum... to find no-one at all to welcome us...eventually found a lady hoovering the furthest bedroom who did her best - made us a pot of tea. Hotel looked 'tired' - dirty outside tables - didn't look like the pictures on the website...we were offered our... More

Stayed for 5 nights (2-7 June) , arriving in beautiful weather to use Kemps as a base for our trip of nostalgia. From the initial reception to our departure, every thing was superb - the excellently furnished & decorated room with lovely views over the Purbeck Hills, everywhere spotlessly clean, well laid out garden & terrace, ever helpful staff serving...

We booked here for the night before and the night of our wedding in Lulworth Castle, which is about five minutes drive from the hotel. Our booking was fiddly to start off with, as my wife and I were spending the first night of our stay sharing rooms with our maid of honour and best man before heading up to... More

My family and I are regular customers for Sunday luncheons (we are local). On a couple of occasions we have been to eat here, there have been several groups of people who have been very noisy.

Just stayed for a couple of nights, very friendly owner and staff. The room was spotlessly clean, comfortable and spacious, and despite the hotel being full it was very quiet. The breakfasts are excellent as was the evening meal that we had. Would definitely head for this hotel again if visiting the area.

We had a double disabled room with a large wet room shower and huge bed. Excellent breakfast with plenty of variety (didn't need any lunch)... More

My son and I stayed here in twin room. We had declined to stay in Weymouth and needed somewhere not too far away. Overall a not a bad place. Clean and resonably well decorated if a little on the tired side. The shower room was very small and materials used were pretty basic. Air conditioning unit was a bit noisy... More

My wife and I had driven nearly 1000 miles over the previous week and needed a place to stay on the Saturday before meeting some friends in Corfe on the Sunday. How wonderful to find a country hotel like Kemps. We received a friendly welcome from the proprietor, Ian Devine, and were shown to one of the largest and best... More
