“Such a hidden gem in the very touristy Lulworth cove area. First of all, Sarah and her family are really great hosts and we had a great time chatting with her and her lovely mom. Sarah was reachable anytime via calls/messages when we had any questions. The room was astonishingly furnished and decorated and we had a very comfortable stay for two nights. The breakfast was top notch with an exquisite array of fruits and a traditional English breakfast and they were kind enough to accommodate our food preferences. You wouldn’t get breakfasts like this in places where you pay extra for the food. Overall, highly highly recommend this place if you want to relax and enjoy the surroundings in a very accessible location to Lulworth cove and Durdle door.”

My cousin and I just stayed here for 2 nights and really enjoyed it. The location was perfect- you can easily walk into the town for the restaurants or hiking, and there is a store quite close for basic groceries and toiletries. The rooms were spacious and clean, and there is even a shared kitchenette available to use. What we liked best of all was the included breakfast. High quality and fresh food was a great start to our day. Thank you to Sarah and her parents for the hospitality and lovely conversations!

Such a hidden little gem! Everything was spotless, the room was very clean, with all the amenities and beyond for a B&B (even a smart TV) and loved the matching interior and furniture with countryside touch. Very comfortable bed as well. Breakfast was really superb, with wide choice of high quality fruit and hot home made dishes. The host, Sarah and family, were extremely nice, welcoming and always available. Loved the location, few mins walk from the busier Lulworth cove and great having own parking and cosy window views! Hope to be back soon.

We had a really great stay at the old barn. We arrived after a rainy hike on the South West Coast Path and Sarah and her parents were really accommodating. The room was nice and spacious and everything was clean. We felt very comfortable. The whole house had a great atmosphere, with bookshelves in various corners. There was a small kitchenette with a microwave and plates. The breakfast was awesome. A lot of fresh fruit, cereals, toast etc. and fresh made pancakes. Sarah made a great vegetarian and vegan breakfast. Lulworth cove is a 10 minute walk and offers beautiful views. We would definitely stay again at the old barn.

I Visited Lulworth Cove for the first time with my family and The Old Barn was the perfect choice for all of us to stay in for our weekend trip. Sara and her parents are enjoyable hosts with great advice for trip options and they make a mean English breakfast. Each bedroom ( as we took up all of them) were clean, well kept, comfortable and had great views of the property. We loved sitting in the garden and appreciated how accessible everything is. We will be recommending this authentic, warm and quaint B&B to everyone who plans on making a visit here. Highly Recommended!

“It's really very interesting to visit this place in the morning at about 8 am because of parking space and less crowded. There is enough place for food and drinks. Toilets are there. Parking for 4 hours is 10 pounds and one day, 20 pounds. Actually, it's recommended for all ages. Get chilled for one day would be my recommendation. It is very easy to drive there.”

“Absolutely worth to visit, had plenty of fun exploring around, even though some paths were just mud slides and you will get a little hiking to do as well. surprisingly there was not a lot of people, could be because of the season. And a tip to bring windbreaker, possible high winds.”

“What a lovely place! I visited today with four others after a walk round the Sculptures at the Lake nearby. It's a real old fashioned English pub. Delicious local beer, fabulous bacon and brie open sandwich, and the man on duty who was rushed off his feet (due to circumstances he explained) and working on his own, still served us efficiently and with good grace. Definitely recommend.”

“Gorgeous sheltered bay surrounded by dramatic cliffs. Several different layers of rock are visible, displaying a geological timeline that has formed one of the UK's most beautiful places. The beach itself is a relatively narrow band compared to many in Dorset, but the azure blue water is worthy of the Mediterranean. There are excellent facilities including a nice café, large gift shop stocked with local goodies, toilets and ample parking. With Stair Hole, Man O' War Beach and Durdle Door along the coast, there's easily enough to fill 4 hours here. This is as well because it's the minimum parking you can buy, at a cost of £10 (as of October 2024). I was lucky enough to be staying nearby so walked and saved the charge. On an October weekend it was popular but not overcrowded, though it appears that in summer it can be extremely busy, so best to visit out of season if you prefer a quieter visit as I do.”
