In an excellent setting. The owners were very welcoming and always available for any queries about the cottage, and information on the area. As a wheelchair user I found the cottage excellent with wide doorways and a wet room.

You would be hard pressed to better this lovely cottage. It has been a real find & we hope to get back there.

Mr Pearce August 2015
The property and location could not have been more perfect for us. Justin and Sally, the owners living next door, were unbelievably helpful and generous with their time and made every effort to make sure that our short stay in Dorset was the very best that it could be. We really do hope to return one day but maybe after the trip to California, suggested by Sally....
