Property was exactly as described and expected. We stayed during the TANKFEST in Bovington and it was the perfect escape. The space was more than enough for our family and dinners at Smugglers Inn and the property restaurant were wonderful.

The owners were extremely communicative and helpful. Thank you Lisa. The chalet has wonderful views and being on the edge of the park it didn't feel at all cramped or overlooked by other chalets. Overall the property was very clean inside. Perhaps a little more attention could be given to the outside. I would still recommend it it to anyone.

Short break

We arrived very late as our ferry into Poole was late but the security guard was excellent & made us feel very welcome. Good base for short break, had everything we needed, booked primarily to visit Tank Museum at Bovington but also to explore Dorset. Shame outdoor pool had so few time slots for booking - don't rely on being able to use it!

Beautiful spot

We just loved sitting on the deck in the sun with sea views to the left and rolling countryside to the right. The wander to the Smuggler's for a beautiful Sunday roast and a romp over the cliffs at Lulworth to Durdle Dor made for a lovely family break.

Lovely position with sea view and short walk to the Smugglers Inn. The lodge was clean, spacious and well equipped. We had a friendly, helpful reception at the Club and our toddler enjoyed the play area. We will definitely go back.

Overall we had a great time here. Spacious and comfortable for us three, with everything working. One star deducted for the online listing as it showed having a travel cot which it didn't. However, this was confirmed prior to our travel so full stars for good communication.

A fantastic week in a great lodge!

The lodge was perfect for our family. Beautiful views and an ideal location. The hosts provided clear instructions for check in and the receptionist at the park gave all the additional information for our stay. We had fantastic weather which meant we could use the outside pool everyday! The on-site gym was also a bonus. We didn’t eat at the country club because the smugglers inn was so close and we enjoyed the walk in the evening! The lodge is also on the south coast path so we were able to walk to Ringstead bay for a days swimming and Bowleaze cove for the kids soft play and rides. Overall fantastic value and would love to stay again!

James bought the lodge in 2006 having spent his childhood holidays in the area. We now love coming to Osmington Mills for our own family holidays and getaways, it is such a lovely, unspoily part of the south coast and there are great walks on the doorstep which all the family like.
