We have been coming to the Albert Apartment for a few years and we love it. It’s comfortable, clean, well equipped and the beds are comfortable. Added, there are Smart TVs in the bedrooms so that you can watch stuff in the morning with a cup of tea (if so inclined).Already booked to come back next year.

Nice apartment, clean, comfortable and all of the things need for a good stay.Central to all of the places you would want to visit, Swanage, Corfe, Bournemouth, Lulworth etc.Slightly noisy road but not too bad.There was a lovely bottle of wine and some milk waiting for us when we arrived, all in all a very good place to stay, we would recommend a stay here.Drive is very narrow, couldn’t get ours on but there is parking on the road opposite.

The accommodation was beautiful and the lady who owned it was very helpful and lovely. We loved the ambience and it felt homely whilst very luxurious even having reclining chairs, free view and wifi which was fabulous. We could even record programmes to watch later and we just cleared it all when we left. Home from home. All the appliances were top notch and there were more than needed, ie, dishwasher, washing machine, etc.
