We have just returned from 2 nights at the Oxford House in Swanage. The guest house is a stone's throw from Swanage town centre thus close to all the pubs, bars, cafes, teahouses, restaurants and beach. The owners Robin & Janis made us feel very welcome. The rooms were clean, 'fresh' and quiet (apart from the odd seagull squaking outside!) We paid £130 for 2 nights which is reasonable for Swanage. Breakfast is served from 8.30 - 9.00 and was brought to us promptly when we came down. We were doubting choosing a guest house as thought we might not get as much privacy as a hotel but in fact we had complete privacy along with the 'personal touch' (advice on where to eat, where to go, directions etc). Oxford House is a lovely place to stay, as is Swanage itself. Recommended!
