About The Manor House
Travellers after a calm base on the Dorset coast rather than a lively town centre will find The Manor House in Puncknowle fits the bill. It's the sort of place suited to walkers, coastal explorers and anyone wanting a settled few days away from crowds, with free on-site parking making it easy to come and go for day trips to West Bay, Abbotsbury and along the Jurassic Coast.
Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms and drinks provided, and breakfast is served each morning, with kids' meals and packed lunches available for those heading out for the day. There's a bar and snack bar on site, along with a garden, picnic area and outdoor seating for relaxing between excursions, and reception is staffed around the clock. Some rooms take in sea views.
Outside the hotel, the surrounding area offers walking and cycling routes, golf and fishing nearby, plus pubs, bars and restaurants within reach for evenings out. It suits guests looking for a straightforward, peaceful stay with the coast and countryside on the doorstep, rather than one seeking extensive on-site facilities.
