Nice stay
The location and views were beautiful. Room was specious, however, there were no drawers or closet to put your clothes in. The bathroom was a bit of a challenge with no separation of the shower and water splashing everywhere. No space to put your toiletries either.
Breakfast was fantastic!!

a beautiful farmhouse
a farmhouse, you can feel the humidity of the stone wall room, a bit too dark inside the room, but general acceptable
beautiful environment, you can enjoy a very good countryside view (inc the corfe castle ruins), if you dont want to drive to the town to have lunch or dinner, you can enjoy the local meal at the farmhouse restaurant

A lovely country retreat.
Kingston Country Courtyard is a lovely place to stay in a very convenient location to visit the area around Swanage, Corfe Castle, Wareham and the delightful coast. Although its position is quite remote there is a bus stop right out side with frequent services to Swanage and Wareham.
The offering available for breakfast was very generous and hot food was cooked to order. There is also a restaurant for evening meals. The bed was very comfortable and being in the country, it was a very quiet night. All the staff were very friendly and helpful.

All staff were friendly, the room was immaculately clean and the bed was comfortable. I left before breakfast so a packed lunch was kindly offered.
Only issues were noise from surrounding guests (it did die down at night but voices and footsteps on the gravel outside were very audible in the evening/afternoon) and there was a gap in the blinds ( that could be fixed with curtains).
