We had a lovely stay at Hill View cottage. It was great to have off road parking as it was easy to unload the car through the back gate. We only had a little dog and the rear enclosed back yard was ideal for him as we could leave the French doors open and not worry. I think a big dog would be too big for the the yard. The view from kitchen window wRead moreas lovely. Ideal location 10 min walk to town centre. I think that the owner should stipulate that shoes must be removed at front door. We dont allow shoes on in our house and this will keep carpets clean. The bedrooms were lovely and well kitted out with good storage, plenty of clothes hangers. The kitchen had all the utensils you needed. The cleaning team was very thorough with some lovely touches. Hide

We had a lovely stay in Hillview Cottage. We were booked for a week and extended for a further 3 nights. The accommodation was just as described. The kitchen had all necessary items if wanting to cook. Milk, Coffee and Tea was an added treat. Washing Machine and Dishwasher a bonus. Would recommend and stay again.

Bedrooms and bathrooms very clean and beds very comfortable. Kitchen well equipment, space downstairs a little tight. A barbeque for the garden would be useful.

Spacious, well-equipped and spotlessly clean. Ideal location for family holiday, close to beach and other amenities - with a convenient bus stop outside to Corfe and Wareham.

A beautiful modern property. Furnishings and fittings are nice and modern and there is a good supply of equipment and crockery (maybe a few more small plates would be good) in the kitchen. Ideal for families. Location is on the edge of the town centre and suited us perfectly. Its up a hill from the centre but one of the routes isnt steep at all. Read more Good private parking with easy access to the rear of the house. Rooms are well proportioned with plenty of space. Stayed here before and liked it enough to return. As on my previous stay the only downside is that the WiFi doesnt work and despite numerous attempts to contact the owner (without success) no explanation or help was given. Im just pleased I didnt need to contact the owners for anything more serious, Fortunately it didnt spoil our holiday. Hide

Booked this house for a Christmas break with family and dog. The house is modern but with character and extremely comfortable. It is tastefully decorated and very well equipped. It is over 3 floors and there are steps to the front door so may not suit those with mobility issues although access from the car parking has only a couple of steps. The sRead moretandard of furniture and, crockery, equipment etc is good. We had a really good time. Plenty of places to walk the dog and dog friendly venues for eating and drinking. The owners had made a great effort with really effective Christmas decorations and friendly touches such as a gift for the dog. Overall it is a really nice house in a good location. Hide
