This is potentially a great golf course with a wonderful natural layout. We visited at the end of the very hot summer and the course has really suffered. The fairways are a mixture of bare patches and clumpy grass. The greens that had not been timed were true but slow. We need to visit again to get a feel for it after more normal conditions.Hi HastoegrahamThank you for visiting our Golf Course, we are pleased that you agree that it is indeed a wonderful natural layout.We have just finished our maintenance, The greens have been verti cut, spiked, cored, overseeded and top dressed. They are now settling nicely and are rolling well.We look forward to welcoming you again next time.

After a couple of hours walking this place is perfect. We sat inside by an open fire with our dog tucked under the table eating Steak and Vegetable Pies and drinking Real Ale (Honey Moon and Black Rat) quite stunning. Brilliant atmosphere, loads of walkers, lovely views, dog friendly, good service, warm and comfortable. Spot on!

Whenever I'm in Swanage (couple of times a year for diving) I always go into the Globe at least once. I can't help but not. The atmosphere is so friendly, I always feel welcome. The beer selection is always good and well looked after and the food options are very tastey.There's a lovely big beer garden out the back and the bar itself although small is packed with character.I'll go back here again and again whenever I get the opportunity. Being veggie the food options are a little limited but what they lack in variety they make up for in service.Outstanding points for good quality character, service and real beer.Go on in and make some new pals.

Ate here twice during our week in Swanage. It really is essential to book as the place is always busy, even on a Monday evening. The food is very good but the portions are very large and I didn't manage to finish my plate on either night. The service is great and the whole place has a real buzz with the local dog-walkers dropping in for a drink which is great. The fact we booked for a second night of our week's stay says it all.
