House vacation rentals in Purbeck District

Came for a change of scenery only an hour away but really felt like we had a break here :) Brought my dog, and even though no garden at this property (as listed) plenty of grass to take them out on a lead to. Cosy and warm -with a very comfy bed. Lovely to have access to the pool, a little cool for me being lazy but imagine perfect temperature to actually swim in! Would definitely come back x

We had a wonderful family pre Christmas get together weekend at park Dale Cottage. The house was in a beautiful spot and we found it spacious and well laid out for our extended family needs. Kate was welcoming and available if we had any questions. We really enjoyed walks into the local area and definitely needed our walking boots to go across the field into the woods which are beautiful and full of ponies! The kitchen area was well equipped, the beds comfy and it was perfect for young children with the lovely selection of toys and outside play area. We loved the big open plan space it was very social . Thank you Katie for the welcome hamper food bits. We really had a perfect weekend, thank you.

Great place to stay to unwind from the real world, the host goes above and beyond for us this is now our 4th time back and we are never dissapointed I’m definately going back again

lovely big house which slept 16 perfectly lovely garden and great tennis court too excellent location next to the new forest and walking distance from a pub would love to stay in the summer

This is our second time staying in this lovely caravan. It’s always pristine and lovely. I always felt like a home away from home there. The bedrooms are a good size and the extra full bathroom is a definite plus! I’d highly recommend staying here.

We had a wonderful stay with all our family to celebrate a special birthday - we loved the house, all able to eat together around the table was wonderful, enjoying chatting and drinking in the beautiful lounge and the younger ones loved the hot tub and braver ones the swimming pool. Great position for all the lovely New Forest areas and walks

New year’s stay to celebrate a 50th birthday with a family of 12. Bedrooms were spacious with a variety of layouts offered by Gill to suit our needs. We loved the hot tub and sauna, especially as it snowed on our second night. The log burner was perfect to warm up after a brisk walk to Harry’s cider farm and the local farm shop (recommend the fresh milkshakes there). Wonderful place. Thank you, would love to revisit and try out the pool in warmer months.

We had an amazing weekend at the cottage! It was the perfect setting for our weekend away! So cosy and surrounded by amazing walks and pubs. Also James and Jane were the best - so helpful and friendly. Definitely would recommend!

I stayed at Sonia’s house with a group of friends. We were 6 adults and 5 children aged 3 to 7. The house was perfect and I actually think the photos don’t quite do it justice. There is plenty of space for the children and adults to do their own thing but also come together. Reception spaces were so cosy with lots of space and made a great cinema room or snug, depending what mood you’re in. Bedrooms were all a great size and and beds were so comfortable! Sonia is a great host. Very responsive, kind and helpful. We have already said, we will be back as it’s such a great house for a gathering with friends.

What a beautiful home. It was home away from home. Thank you Angus and Ann for opening your home to us. We will definitely be back. what an amazing first Christmas trip with my family, special Grandson and our fur babies.

My friends and I visited the property over a weekend to catch up as we all live far away from each other these days. the house was a perfect for our needs and the town centre location meant we didn't need to use our cars for the entirety of our stay. restaurants, pubs and supermarkets were all within waking distance, and yet within 10 minutes walk you can be out in the countryside enjoying the fresh air. The host was really helpful and responsive and the house was spacious and clean. The kitchen was really well stocked with utencils and cooking implements etc, and having things like dishwasher tablets and coffee pods available made our stay really easy. Would definitely recommend and would use the property again if I was staying in the area.

We really enjoyed our weekend stay. The town centre is a perfect distance away that you can walk in in about 10-15mins but far enough away to not feel like you're staying in a busy town centre. Louise sorted us parking permits out and we easily parked 3 cars in the local streets, not right outside but this wasn't an issue. The house is great, 4 good sized clean bedrooms, a lounge, dining area and kitchen. Louise had left us a few goodies and some milk as a welcome gift, Tesco is a short walk away to grab any other bits you need and we had a lovely meal out locally too, plus lots of recommendations of good places to go. Thank you for a very lovely weekend.

Fantastic accommodation in the heart of Swanage. Apartment is finished to a very high standard with beautiful décor. Everything works as it should and the under floor heating is a real treat in the morning when making breakfast!

A lovely house that more than adequately accommodated our family of 8, with room for more if needed. It is on quite a main road, so traffic can be heard from the front bedroom, but this didn’t ruin the experience for us. Great space for relaxing, dining and playing games with the family over the New Year break. The kitchen is pretty well equipped for most self catering requirements. There are a number of beautiful beaches, towns and scenic spots within minutes away from the house, so something for everyone within reach. Katie was easily available for any enquiries and not far away if needed. She is a very hospitable host! We had a wonderful stay and would definitely stay again!

Caroline was an excellent host. The house is lovely and was perfect for our large family gathering. Loved the location by the Priory. Beaches were only a short drive away. The cooker was good and plenty of hot water. But we paid a premium due to booking for half term. Out of holiday time very good value for money.

Really beautifully decorated and comfortable place with all the amenities located centrally in the beautiful town of Wilton with some great places to shop and eat. Would love to stay again next time we’re in the area.

we enjoyed a lovely Christmas by the seaside. The house was clean and well prepared. The location is wonderful and we fell in love with Swanage. thank you for having us!

Had a great time a Louis's place. went 7 friends and all was as expected. good communication, we had no problems and Louis was very good at accommodating our needs. Would recommend.

The house was amazing, very clean and beds were really comfy! The house had everything we needed, perfect location too. You receive a great booklet before you go, which has WiFi info, check in instructions, local restaurant recommendations, and lots more. It was really helpful, and looks fab! Leaving Christmas presents for the children was very thoughtful and a lovely touch. Thank you for a lovely stay, will definitely be back. Would highly recommend to friends and family! Thank you again!

We really enjoyed our stay over Christmas. The house was beautifully decorated and very accommodating for our family of 10. Lesley was a very attentive host and we had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend. Thank you Lesley and John.

We had a great stay at Belinda’s place. The house is welcoming and just a short walk to the beach. The location is unbeatable for the quieter Bournemouth beaches. Belinda and Matthew checked us in and shared some great tips to make our stay. The beds were comfortable, and the open-plan downstairs and garden area provided a great space for our 4 year old and baby. Belinda was very warm and quick to respond to our queries both before and during our stay. Thank you!

We booked a weekend away as a group of 7 so that we could visit Stonehenge for the Solstice (and celebrate my birthday!). The house is fantastic with all the amenities described and the all the instructions were just easy and accurate. The hot tub was great in a very private front garden. Julian was an incredibly welcoming host and made everything very easy, especially as he was very responsive. Thanks for the great stay! Would recommend.

We booked Glebe House for a late Christmas family get together. The venue was the perfect setting in a tranquil, rural location but also not far from Salisbury if one wished for a bit more action. The bedrooms are well proportioned, the beds were very comfortable, bedlinen, duvet and pillows were all clean and soft. Plenty towels on offer. The kitchen is very well appointed. Lots of space. There was a double oven and smaller oven for all the cooking for a large group. Victoria provided the necessary utensils - e.g. scales, whisk, blender, lots of crockery and cutlery, glasses and champagne glasses. Very well stocked indeed. We enjoyed all sitting around the large dining table catching up. I thoroughly approved of the recycling policies in place, especially the food waste, as this is the bulk of one's waste. We were provided with a lovely brand of shampoo, conditioner and hand gel in all bathrooms. So many places don't do that! And enough toilets rolls which is unusual.

My band was playing a show at Chaplin's and we needed a place to stay the night that could accommodate 5 of us to avoid a very late night drive back to Southampton. Sarah Jane's home was perfect - space to park, a quick walk with all our gear, and SUPER comfortable beds! It was leaps and bounds a better space and value than the hotels we usually stay at for out of town gigs. We will definitely be looking to stay here again next time we're in town if it's available!
