Amazing converted church -Dorset’s Jurassic Coast
We had the most wonderful time. The church was fantastic and it felt a privilege to stay in a historic building that was also comfortable, spacious and had all the amenities we needed. literally a home from home. The location is top notch with many brilliant places to visit. Comms with the property manager was good too. Thank you Gordon and Ellie

Hideaway House, Easton, Portland
We had a wonderful stay in Cara‘s Portland cottage. We were there over Christmas week. Cara had decorated the house beautifully for Christmas and was really responsive to every request. We know Portland well and have many friends we were there to visit, so we already knew what a fabulous place it is to be. The cottage was really well stocked with all the equipment we needed and more. Cara left us a fabulous hamper of Christmas bits and bobs - so much we couldn’t get through it all! Thank you, Cara. We will be back!

Sea-cret Summers-2 bed, sleeps six, great location
We absolutely loved the apartment which was super cosy and fully equipped. It is walking distance from local restaurants, park, and beach. Ideal spot if you plan to visit Bournemouth and the Jurassic coast- we had a lovely long weekend!

Coastal Holidays Swanage Blue Light Discount
The accommodation was clean and exactly as advertised. Camilla was friendly and easy to communicate with. The park was very peaceful and ideal for couples and families. Swanage was an easy walk. We had a lovely stay and would definitely recommend!

Stunning 2 Bedroom, Dog Friendly With Lovely Views
Jo was a perfect host the welcome basket was full of lovely food. The bungalow is well equipped with everything you need. It was a lovely place to stay and the view from the garden was just so nice watching lambs in the field playing. Our dog wasn’t left out he had treats left for him and the garden was perfect for him. I celebrated my birthday while there and Jo gave me a card and some flowers which was very kind of her she was the perfect host. If I could give higher than 5 stars I would.

Charming cottage in Stour Provost
We have just returned from Caroline’s beautiful cottage. It was everything we wished for and more. The cottage had everything we needed, the beds were extremely comfortable and the cottage was exceptionally clean. The surrounding area was very quaint and pretty and there was lots to explore in the area and a bit beyond. We spent NYE at Durdle Door, an hours drive away but well worth it. Would highly recommend Caroline’s cottage and our dog loved it too.

No44 Winsome Pet Friendly Shorefields nr POOL
We booked this for 3 nights for a last minute break in the Easter Holidays. It was a lovely space for a family of 4 with everything we needed. The holiday park itself is very clean with plenty to do. You will need to pay for a pass to use the facilities (including the restaurant) which worked out £100 for a family of 4. The indoor swimming pool got very busy, however, I think this was because the outdoor pool wasn't open yet and it was a bit chilly for the beach - so I imagine that during the summer people spread out a bit more! We booked the The Beachcomber restaurant for our first evening. The food was ok but it was a fun place to eat as a little robot brings your food over. Overall, we had a lovely break and we would probably return in the future.

The Farmhouse
We had a great time at The Farmhouse for our family get together. We would recommend to stay here.
