Lovely relaxing break
Beautiful accommodation. We loved the hot tub. So many places to visit…durdle door, Weymouth, Lyme Regis.
A lidl not too far away for shopping and nice pubs nearby too.
My son enjoyed fishing in the little lake
Nice little touches were the owner leaving us ice creams, wine and biscuits for our arrival.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
