Situated in a country house situated by Studland Bay, you can enjoy the shabby chic style, eat delicious food and take in the view. Afterwards, take a relaxing walk around the kitchen gardens and grounds. 

Country pubs

The Bankes Arms at Studland is an old smuggler’s haunt – why not savour your pint while enjoying fine views of the sea?

Tea for two?

No visit to Dorset is complete without a traditional cream tea! At Worth Matravers Tea and Supper Rooms you can enjoy afternoon tea in the beautiful gardens. You can also savour delicious evening menus here. 

Fantastic fish!

If you want to walk along the seafront before your meal, La Trattoria in Swanage offers atmospheric evening dining a-la-carte or fixed price menu, with locally caught seafood a speciality.

A firm favourite with visitors is our scrumptious traditional fish and chips and Swanage also offers a range of take-away establishments with food from around the world.
