Just had another lovely stay here. Great location for beaches, museums and other attractions. A lovely comfotable cottage in a beautiful location. Kimberley and John are perfect hosts, always happy to help and friendly.
Welcoming hosts and a spotless and lovely house to stay in, close to lots of amazing attractions, nature and wildlife. We had a great time staying here.
Well presented holiday cottage, cleanliness outstanding, greeted by hosts, providing a tour guide to the property and guide to where everything was. The garden was a massive treat for the children, they were as disappointed at having to leave as we were too
This was our second stay at this beautiful cottage. We had such a wonderful stay, and as our first time, the cottage was just lovely, cosy and had everything we wanted. See you next year!
Our second stay here and again everything was wonderful. Comfortable, quiet rooms, a kitchen with everything we needed and lovely grounds.
Excellent hosts on hand if required
We have just completed out third stay at this property and yet again it was excellent.Great hosts who are friendly and always available if you need any help.The location is excellent for being within easy reach of a large number of great locations including beaches, musuems and towns.With great whether it was always good to sit out in the spacious pretty garden area to relax and everything we needed was provided in the property.Looking forward to visiting again.
We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful holiday home. Perfect location for exploring this part of Dorset, the house was just lovely, clean, cosy and very well equipped. And the hosts, John and Kim are very kind! We would really recommend it!
Delightful house in a beautiful location and welcoming hosts. The property has everything and more required for a comfortable stay. Spotlessly clean and well maintained. Thank you Kim and John, we will be back. S & C
The house is so clean and spacious, the pictures do not do it justice. A great base to explore the area. The hosts John and Kim are so nice, on hand if you need them but never intrusive. We would throughly recommend and we wood definitely stay there again.
Kim and John were very welcoming and helpful. This cottage is in an ideal location to visit Poole, Wareham and the surrounding areas. It was extremely clean, well appointed with everything you need. Would thoroughly recommend.
Comfortable and well equipped in good central location near Wareham
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.
We stayed in this lovely cottage last week for 6 days and it was such a clean and comfortable cottage. John and Kim kept in touch prior to our visit and said we could check in earlier than the check in time which really helped make the most of our first day. We had a tour of the cottage on arrival and had everything we needed, even some biscuits which the kids were very pleased with . The beds were comfortable and the kitchen and bathroom are modern and well equipped, with plenty of soft towels. The garden was great for the kids.Location is super, easy to get to nearby attractions and various beaches are all easily accessible. All in all, a great place to stay with lovely hosts, we will definately stay again and thoroughly recommend.
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.
As a golfing group, our party has stayed at this property multiple times. Kim and John are extremely good hosts and always make us feel welcome. House is perfect for our needs and in a great location. Will be back again in a few months!!!
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 :)
We had a wonderful stay in this cottage.
Lovely owners met us to show us around and were on hand if required.
The place had everything we could need and was very cosy. On a lovely location along with the owners property, very close to all the amenities you could need, yet quiet and private with good relaxing views.
We enjoyed Weymouth, Swanage, Studland etc with plenty more to visit and good towns and pubs local too.
Definitely will return.

Lovely welcome from the owners.Spotlessly clean and mostly comfortable.Tea, coffee and biscuits left for us.In a very good position for exploring the local area.Hadn’t realised the house was next to a main road, so garden was quite noisy.Not in a private location, other family houses nearby.Stairs up to the bedroom were quite steep and unlit from the bottom.No dishwasher. Other amenities were fine.

With the Cottage being over 100 years old, when we refurbished it 7/8 years ago we took the opportunity to re-profile the stairs plus installing a handrail for assistance if needed. If we had been amde aware of the light at the botto of the stairs not workig we could have arranged to fix it (the bulb has blown, now chnaged). The Cottage is situated in approx. 3 acres of land and there are 2 nearby bungalows, but no-one else has found this an issue. The main road is approx. 100m from the cottage and other renters have commented just how peaceful and relaxing the venue/ garden are. The property listing shows what is available in the cottage and the area can be checked on google maps.
This is a fantastic property at a great location. Homely and comfortable with everything you need for a visit. The owner are a lovely couple who make you feel at home and then leave you to it. They are there if you need them. The bonus was watching the nighttime feeding of the vixen and her 2 cubs. Will definitely be booking again. Thank you John and Kim .
