The best thing about this amazing house was the host and the warm welcome. We really felt like honored guests--with welcome package of food and drink, and friendly, prompt communication, and the heating on all the time (which makes a change from some places we've stayed at recently). The rooms are spacious in this superb house and there is a separate playroom stacked with toys for kids. Adults enjoyed the table tennis after big meals over the Christmas holidays--and the equipment and cooking facilities were plentiful and good quality. This was a much loved family home with generous hosts who wanted us to enjoy it as much as they do--rather than rental bought and furnished for the purpose of making money. If you want a family reunion of 3 generations, as we did, in a home from home, this is perfect. being a short walk fom the beach and having space for 4 cars is a bonus too.

A lovely, spacious and comfortable house with a bit of character - and the added bonus of table football and a table tennis table. It's on a beautiful stretch of coast - we very much enjoyed the short hike East to Hengistbury head and the Mudeford ferry. It's also close to local buses and the Pokedown train station, for trips to Christchurch or Poole. The local Southborne Grove area is lively with plenty of local bars and restaurants. We had a very enjoyable weekend.
