Love this hotel, great family atmosphere. Hoping the refurb doesn't loose too much of the originality this place has. Otherwise will loose his quaintness and staff and be too expensive and will change the clientele.

Wonderful period hotel for romantic getaway
Surprisingly we seemed to be the only first timers at this establishment, which says a lot. Some were on their third visit this year. We found some staff have served for over 25 years which says a lot about the team. It is in a beautiful setting outside of the local village, a very short walk from Studland beach. We made good use of the plunge pool, Jacuzzi, steam room and sauna. An open air pool is available in the summer. I am not sure about wheelchair accessible rooms, as ours was ground floor but had some steps. Rooms further away from reception (62) have very poor WiFi signal. Its a lovely 30's style building that has been altered little, so expect it to be quaint and nostalgic. We are older so loved the style, yet younger families also had a lot of facilities such as a games room and cinema. I could go on, but I am sure there are many other fantastic reviews. We will certainly return.

Knoll House Hotel offers a delightful retreat surrounded by nature, where the charm of old-world architecture meets the needs for a modern update. Wifi - or should I say no wifi, Trying to stream anything was an exercise in patience and perseverance. Room itself had a connecting door to the other guests... very noisy The check-in process is test of patience - 4pm check in.
