Liked: Cleanliness
Interesting and rewarding hotel to stay in - in a beautiful park of the UK. Unbearably hot - my goodness they could save so much money by turning the heating down a degree or two. Staff were surly, but then again they are British! Dubious levels of decor and organisation, but good enough. Mostly, I rated this hotel - I'd come again.

The Knoll House Hotel has a lot of character and some charming communal rooms (a bar, lounge and games room). From the front loan you have an amazing view of the sea. There are also other facilities, such as the outdoor swimming pool that is a plus, especially on a warm, sunny day. It is situated in a lovely, quiet area by the Studland coast and just a short walk from the beach. We stayed in a room in an annex at the back of the main building and it was quiet and pleasant. The breakfast in the morning is good quality and the restaurant area is very spacious with large windows to enjoy the view outside. This hotel is a time capsule, a nostalgic trip to the English seaside.

We had a great time at Knoll House - a truly old British affair - vintage and well loved, quirky, fun, v friendly and efficient staff, good dinner, excellent breakfast. Perfect for a family break with plenty of facilities and brilliantly located. We took our small dog who was welcomed by staff. By the very nature of being dog and family friendly this is a cosy place, gentile but not fancy - ideal for active guests with plenty of space for grandparent to join too!
