Nette and Col are great hosts, they can’t do enough for you, we have stayed at Durham House on numerous occasions and have never had a bad experience, we would highly recommend them.

If you enjoy walking there are many walks. Or if you just want to sit and relax the beach is great. The Smugglers Kitchen is a great place to eat.

Both of you were really friendly and helpful, we recieved a very warm welcome. The room was exceptional, spotlessly clean and really nice decor, the entire b&b had wonderful decor throughout, including lovely paintings. It was a very quiet room, good shower, fridge and bed was very comfortable, we both slept soundly. Breakfast in the morning had a great menu, and both of our breakfasts were delicious and perfectly cooked, served with a smile! Had lovely conversations with the pair of you and felt we couldn’t have chosen a better place to stay on our first weekend away together.

Would recommend popping down to the beach, especially at night as beautiful night sky. As the email sent out reads, it is recommended to book tables in advance; we ate at the smugglers kitchen and it was high standard food, very yummy. We went fossil hunting at Charmouth and had great results so would definitely recommend Charmouth more than any other area in our experience. There is a local shop across the road also so don’t worry too much if you forget anything!

Nette and Colin were lovely and friendly hosts. Nothing was too much trouble and kept making sure we had everything we needed. There was a good selection for breakfast and said we could mix up the options if we wished. Fabulous assortment of animal milk jugs, etc came out each morning. Our room was clean and bright, had a sofa bed which made the room more comfortable and a good size ensuite. The house it's self, in the perfect location has a charm, with a high standard of decor, topped off with locals art work. I highly recommend Durham House Hotel and would stay there again when we next visit.

There's a nice little store right opposite the hotel with the tastiest pasties and sausage rolls. The Smugglers Kichen is a lovely restaurant with good choices only a few yards away. The Barrel of beer, is a nice little local and The Anchor Inn (Green King) overlooks the cliffs and beach and good for food. There are also art galleries, ceramic and glass shops,chocolate shop and others which weren't open out of season. There are many coastal walks around the beautiful cliffs. The village may be small but beautifully formed. Loved it.
