It is in a lovely location in the beautiful Dorset countryside but within easy reach of local beauty spots and perfectly located for anyone who enjoys walking.
It has been carefully and successfully planned to ensure that every inch of space is used productively and as a result feels perfectly comfortably for two people. Carol and Derek are perfect hosts, being on hand when required and unobtrusive on other occasions. We had car issues and they went out of their way to be helpful and supportive. Highly recommended. read less – 24 Jun 2021

If you want privacy and just the sounds of the pheasants, and the farm animals this is ideal. Being at the end of a road it there is absolutely no traffic noise. The space is cosy and warm. The hosts Carol and Derek can’t do enough for you and nothing is too much trouble. It has everything you might want in a romantic retreat or a base from which to walk the Jurassic Coast. There are loads of dog friendly places near by to have a bite to eat or drink. Definitely a gem! Thanks Carol and Derek! read less – 02 Nov 2019

Carol and Derek met us but as they were due to go holiday the same day they introduced us to their friends who were looking after the property. They were lovely, friendly hosts answering all our questions throughout our stay.

Our two pugs loved their stay – they loved the walks on the doorstep and the dog blanket that was provided for them to sleep on. We especially liked the small enclosed garden which meant that we could sit outside or inside with the door open so the dogs could wander in and out without us having to worry about them.

Lovely place to stay and we would love to come back sometime. read less – 18 Jun 2018
