The historic village of Corfe Castle on the Isle of Purbeck is nearby adding to the charm of the location.

For guests who prefer to be closer to the beach, the hotel also provides private steps leading down to the beachfront, allowing them to take leisurely strolls into town.

The Pines Hotel is situated at the eastern end of the 95-mile long UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Jurassic Coast, which boasts some of the most stunning landscapes in the country. The surrounding area offers great variety, from the medieval history of Corfe Castle and its hinterland of Hardy's “Wessex” to the major cosmopolitan resort of nearby Bournemouth. The rooms are light and traditionally furnished, each one equipped with a flat-screen TV and free tea and coffee making facilities. Each room has a private bathroom and some rooms even have balconies overlooking the sea, providing visitors with even more magnificent views to enjoy.

Summary of reviews related to the 'Beachfront' categoryThe Pines Hotel boasts fantastic beach access with stairs leading directly down to the gorgeous sandy beach. Guests can enjoy lovely views over the beach and sea from the restaurant and lounge, as well as from their spacious and beautifully decorated rooms. The access to a lovely beach is perfect for accessing the South West Coastal path and taking morning sunrise walks from the hotel to the beach. Although there are a bit of a climb and 147 steps down to the beach, the location on the coast is great for walks and easy access to the town. Beware of the climb back up to the hotel from the beach if you are unfit, but overall, the beach access is a bonus and a great place to spend your vacation.
