We had a wonderful stay at Keepers Cottage and wish we could have stayed for longer! The Cottage is very well equipped, comfortable and clean. It is perfectly situated to explore the whole of Purbeck and South Dorset. Kim and John were very helpful and friendly, advising on a local garage for a car problem and fixing the TV for my teenagers! We would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a holiday in Dorset.

Comfortable and well equipped house, hosts who live adjacent to the property, were very friendly, kind and helpful. Good location for exploring the Purbeck/Durdle door area. Near a busy road but pleasant views of Purbeck hills and trees.

lovely long weekend .

Spotlessly clean . Perfect for our needs. Hosts were super friendly. Location was great near places of interest. If we had to find fault which was not easy maybe bed linen was a bit old fashioned but certainly did not impact our stay. Would definitely recommend without hesitation.

Wonderful Visit!

This home was cute, cozy, and spotless! We really enjoyed our stay here and the owners were very kind and helpful, especially since this was our first time to the area and we were unfamiliar with where to visit. The house had a very nice walk in shower and all the amenities we needed. Our kids loved the fenced in yard and toys and spent a lot of time playing outside as well :)
