A gorgeous house in a beautiful part of Dorset. We loved the walk to and from Corfe Castle along the hill at the back. On the stormy day we three generations and dog enjoyed each other's company in this cosy home with plenty of games and films to catch up on. Many walks and beaches to explore.

Stunning location and very good value for money. Good dog walks from the door onto the hills. Easy reach of seaside. Seven adults and one child had plenty of room. Downstairs has three roome meaning you can get away from the rest of your group to read or do jigsaws. Good amount of equipment. Garden not enclosed but is not near any one else ofrmajorRead more roads. This was not really a problem for our dogs. Highly recommend! Hide

Large property set in a quiet area but close to the coast, brilliant for bird watching and wildlife from the front door. We have stayed here 4 times now and will be returning again.

This is an excellent family house, with space and a beautiful aspect. It has a pleasing old-fashioned atmosphere and children can't cause damage. Generous with bathrooms and living rooms, our family had a comfortable and enjoyable holiday, whatever the weather. We found the location convenient for all our activities.

The property and grounds are beautiful however even though there have been a lot of improvements since my last stay the cleanliness from the changeover is still poor e.g sofa covered in stains and pet hair, dirty cutlery in drawer , oven not clean etc. If there was a mop to go with the mop bucket I would have washed the floors before I left. All thRead moreat said the place itself makes it worth doing the cleaning yourself. Hide
