Worth Matravers is a small coastal village just a mile inland from the rugged, beautiful south coast of the Isle of Purbeck. It's the hub of a number of coastal walks to many of the sights illustrated below, and is a key stop-off on the South West Coast Path - many of our guests have celebrated their last night in Post Office Cottage before completing the 630 mile trip!.
Whether a solo walker or a family group, you will be the only guests in the cottage, and have full and private use of all the facilities, lounge and dining area. Due to our new cleaning and disinfecting regime, check in no earlier than 4pm; check out please by 1000am. If you stay for two nights or more you can use the cottage all day to come and go as you like until the day you leave.

Ali was very welcoming after arriving from a long day of walking from Swanage. The bedroom, bathroom/shower room and living area were immaculate and the bed comfortable. Great selection of books if you fancy a good read. Enjoyed too watching the rugby by the warmth of the wood burner. Lovely views of the neighbouring cottages and very peaceful. Breakfast was very good highlighted also by a very tasty home made marmalade. I couldn’t recommend this well run and charming B&B more highly.

Excellent little B&B. Welcoming proprietors, good amenities and a fantastic cooked breakfast. Perfectly situated for loads of Purbeck walks - and easily walkable to the Square & Compass. But you'll need a car, realistically, for anything a bit further afield - even a trip to Swanage for fish'n'chips.

You couldn't wish for anything more, accommodation and breakfast were first rate and the fact that you get use of the sitting room with open fire was the icing on the cake for 3 tired walkers. The local pub has great range of beer and pies/pasties. Tim and Ali were very hospitable and even helped arrange transport for my dad when he sat out a days walking. Thank you!
