The barn is a spacious and well equipped home from home on a equine working farm. The owners are friendly and welcoming. Plenty of parking and places to walk with the dog. Most places were within 30 minutes travel, such as Weymouth, Poole, Durdle Door. We found a lovely pottery painting place in Blandford and can recommend the gardens at AbbotsburyRead more. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Hide
