Edwardian Seaside Hotel with Panoramic Sea Views and Award-Winning Dining
Architecture and Views
Hotel Miramar is an Edwardian building featuring Roman inspired pillars and curved balconies overlooking the sea and landscaped gardens. The hotel offers sea or garden views from all rooms, with some room types offering large private balconies. A blue plaque on the building notes that author J.R.R. Tolkien spent many holidays here from the 1950s to the 1970s.
Award-Winning Dining
Restaurant No 43 and Ocean Bar & Terrace serve award-winning cuisine crafted by a renowned chef, with dishes such as Tempura Prawns and Roasted Cannon of Lamb. Afternoon tea with sandwiches and scones is offered in the Ocean Bar & Terrace, alongside a lighter lunch menu and a traditional Sunday lunch. Guests also receive complimentary tea and coffee services in their rooms.
Custom Weddings and Events
The hotel provides custom wedding and event planning services, including exclusive use options for privacy and personalized coordination by the events manager. Weddings can be held on the lawn with a backdrop of Studland Bay, with the library room available for receptions. The hotel's team handles everything from table settings to catering, with a choice of function rooms like the Garden Suite.
