Personally run by the owners, Ted and Beverly Clayton and her sister Alison, Mortons House was built from Purbeck stone circa 1590 in the shape of an 'E' to honour Queen Elizabeth I and overlooks the ruins of Corfe Castle. Traditional bedrooms make good use of four posters, traditional stone fireplaces and fine views of the Castle, Swanage Steam Railway and Purbeck Hills. Spend a wintry evening before a log fire among the oak panelling after enjoying a delicious meal in their AA 
restaurant.
The location of Mortons House provides the perfect centre from which to enjoy this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in this idyllic corner of England, taking in the sights of Corfe Castle, the Jurassic coastline, Kimmeridge Bay, Lulworth, Durdle Door and Swanage with its famous Steam Railway and not forgetting the beautiful beaches at Studland ~ a glorious slice of natural coastline in Purbeck featuring a four-mile stretch of golden, sandy beach, with gently shelving bathing waters and views of Old Harry Rocks and the Isle of Wight. The village of Corfe Castle is protected and perfect, the old 'capital' of the Isle of Purbeck....you've even a sunny micro-climate here.
