An excellent pkace to get away unwind & relax. Lovely to get out of the holiday rush but still close to beaches ,golf,shops,and all the lovely walks.
Lovely surroundings. Abundant fruit trees.. Very peaceful except for the rooster and the water pump very close to our cottage. Lovely renovated kitchen and bathroom. Beds comfortable. Towels werent up to accomodation standard. The lounge suite smelled musty. Overall a nice place to stay, just a few small things could be easily fixed.

Peaceful spot to relax for a couple of nights. Easy walk to Bridport. Hosts were lovely, even with contactless arrangements for covid. Lovely spots in shade to enjoy a wine and cheese.
