We have returned from a four day break at the hotel and the welcome received from Ed, Daria and the staff was very welcoming. The food was excellent with daily specials and catch of day. This newly opened hotel is well worth a visit.

A new venture for the young owners Edward and Dascha at this very conveniently located hotel in West Lulworth. With its superb views out across the countryside and short walk to this huge tourist attraction. Very friendly and attentive host, with excellent service, very clean and well-presented rooms. The hotel radiates quality and the host’s personality. Start the day with... More

We were staying locally for the 2nd time and our hosts recommended this restaurant because there was a new couple running it and the food was good. There is no doubt that this is by far the best restaurant in West Lulworth and is in a location with a lovely view. The scallops, crab and fish from the specials board... More

We decided to visit Dorset/Lulworth for a fairly last minute weekend away and booked to stay at Limestone. It was brilliant and we would highly recommend it. The hotel is beautifully and interestingly decorated - each room is different. The hosts are really friendly and helpful, but also very relaxed - the service is great without being remotely intrusive. We... More

Normally we never eat in the hotel we are staying in, preferring to find a restaurant of our choice. However the dining room was cosy and well decorated so we were enticed in. And... More

Limestone is lovingly run by Edward and Dascha and their enthusiasm can be seen in everything that they do. Although Limestone is a new venture, they have heaps of... More
