A lovely place to have a short break.
A lovely place to have a short break.Being able to walk to the pub to have an excellent meal was areal bonus.We did find the sofa’s abit uncomfortable but otherwise we had no complaints.
Lovely little 2 bed property in an ideal setting for touring around. Nice pub near by if you don't fancy cooking. Chris the owner very approachable and helpful. And plenty of little walks about if you're traveling with your furry friends.

We had the best time in this lovely little holiday home.
We had the best time in this lovely little holiday home.We were happy with the location, 20minutes to the nearest supermarket, and about 40 to places like Salisbury, Lullworth Cove and the New Forest.The place was neat and clean.My only negative is the couches were very small, only just big enough for 2 adults.We were also unable to get the central heating to work, so was a little chilly in the evening. Some more firewood and firelighters would have been good.The host was very friendly.I would say it was good value for money.

I good location for Dorset attractions.
I good location for Dorset attractions. The outside space could be more secure for a dog, the fence is getting a little worn. A few cobwebs in the property and cleaning between the chair cushions needs more attention. This would be a push for two couples. However a couple having individual bathrooms was great. Tv is a bit hit and miss. No terrestrial Tv. The gate catch needs adjustment and irritating. All minor issues that can be easily addressed to turn this in to a great place to stay
