Lovely cottage offering space , character and tranquility. Parking is tight but ok if you are sensible. Super quiet and enjoyed the bird activity in the garden. Easy driving distance of Studland, Swanage and Wareham , all worth a visit whether it’s sunny or not.

The cottage was lovely. Very well equipped making it a home from home. I have holidayed in many "dog friendly" cottages and I felt this was most welcoming. In the welcome pack there was not restrictions of what your dog could or could not do. The owners asked that if your dog wanted to sit on the furniture you used one of the throws provided, what most dog owners do in their own home. They provided plenty of throws, dog towels, a dog bed, dog bowls and treats which my girls liked!Access to the cottage was down a single track which was quite tight and nervous drivers may find this challenging and therefore have to park up the road in a car park.The cottage had limited wi-fi which was not a problem, however it would be useful if the owners provided a list of shops, pubs etc as we were unable to look these up on the internet.
