I LOVE LOVE LOVE this place! Absolutely superb place to take your dogs. We stayed in cottage 2 and found it to be very pleasant and comfortable. The food was really good. We were told that the restaurant would get booked up quickly, but didnt think it would be full by 6 pm. The popularity speaks for itself. If you... More

Great place for dogs but not a happy experience for anyone else wanting a room to stay. A sign outside welcomes dogs with grudging reference to humans being allowed too. Very attractive building from the outside, but once inside, beware. Free dog biscuits on the bar should give you a clue. Dogs can outnumber humans at breakfast. Bedrooms are basic... More

We stayed for 4 nights recently, accompanied by our dog. We received a very warm welcome on our arrival and throughout our stay found all the staff, whether behind the bar or at breakfast, to be friendly and helpful. Breakfast was a hoot with most people bringing their dogs with them. We found this created a lovely atmosphere of chatting... More

Have just returned this weekend from The Castle Inn completely relaxed and with a grateful cocker spaniel in tow. All staff were highly professional and the level of service was great. Breakfasts here are huuuuuuuge, as well as the doggy breakfasts provided. You really don't need to eat until dinner time when a varied and delicious menu is on offer.... More

We stayed here for one night and chose this place because we wanted to take our young Jack Russell away with us to see how she got on! The welcome was very friendly and Nibbler (our Jack) was heartily welcomed despite the typical barking associated with her breed. The room was basic and carpets worn etc.. but I don't see... More

We booked 2 nights at this hotel mainly because it was dog friendly - we always travel with our dog and have never had to compromise on quality and cleanliness before - yes, it was very dog friendly and that's where the good bit ends. We stayed in Cottage 2 - it was filthy - we always cover the floors... More

This is a great place for dogs, and ours was very happy with the sausages for breakfast, canine company and surrounding hillsides for excellent walkies. The humans were less enthusiastic. Rooms were pretty average, clean enough, and I won't carp about stray hairs in a place where dogs are welcome on the bed. Rooms facing the road can be pretty... More

We didn't actually stay here, but visited on two consecutive nights for dinner. The food was really nice, and enormous portions, so great value for money. There was also a great selection of local ciders and ales. The staff were all very helpful and polite. We would definitely go back when we return to Lulworth. More
