An absolute gem of a property

A wonderful holiday home with the loveliest of hosts. In such a gorgeous location, we loved being able to walk straight into the woods and the peace and tranquility was just what we needed. The home was well equipped and comfortable, we didn’t want to come home!

Great location!!

We stayed in Jauary and it rained every day. However, this didn't take anything away from our stay. The location is perfect, placed right next to a forest, which is perfect for walks. The hosts are incredible. The property is incredible. All around incredible!

If you want peace and tranquility this is for you.

We had a fantastic stay! The property was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing getaway. The location was perfect—peaceful yet close enough to attractions and main towns if that’s what you need. Sharon and her husband are the perfect hosts. They’re friendly and responsive, making the whole experience smooth from start to finish. We especially loved being able to go for walks in the forest right from the door step!We would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great place to stay in the area. We’ll definitely be back!

2nd home whilst bathroom renovated

The rental property is very well appointed. Lots of little extras were provided by Sharon and Andrew. The location is excellent in a semi rural position but close to amenities. We had a very relaxing stay whilst our bathroom was being renovated. We really felt at home seeing the horses and beautiful scenery every day. Sharon and Andrew were excellent hosts and we would definitely book again. We were made very welcome and we throughly enjoyed our month long stay.

Lovely stay

Overall we had a lovely stay, Sid's Place is a lovely space attached to the owners home. Everything you need is there and sitting out on the patio in the sunshine was delightful. Unfortunately there was a problem with the TV while we were there, Sharon ordered a new remote which arrived the next day but unfortunately didn't resolve the problems. I understand she was going to order a new TV if the next guests continued to have problems. Other than that Sid's Place definitely deserves a 5 star rating.

Sharon is an amazing host and the accommodation is lovely. We booked just 10 days before our stay . Everything is very clean. Kitchen facilities are great as is the bathroom with large shower. We didn’t use the TV. Wi-Fi was very good. Sharon is so friendly and recommended places for us to eat and visit. There are also plenty of leaflets and local magazines provided for ideas. We were able to walk to Avon Heath country park. Plus walked in the woods straight from the property . Sharon also provided lots of little extras for us to enjoy. I hope we will be able to return very soon .

Rundum zufrieden.

Sids Place ist Bestandteil eines Farmhauses inmitten von Pferdeweiden. Direkt hinter dem Gelände geht man in den Wald mit seinen wunderschönen Wanderwegen. Von St. Leonards kann man innerhalb kürzester Zeit mit dem Auto in den Genuss von verschiedenen Sehenswürdigkeit kommen wie z. B. Besuch der Kathedrale von Salisbury, das Wimbourne Minster usw. Nach den Ausflügen war es einfach herrlich auf der Terrasse oder in den Räumlichkeiten von Sids Place zu entspannen. Es war ein für uns perfekter Urlaub (die Temperaturen haben auch dazu beigetragen, es war nicht zu heiß). Zudem hatte Sharon uns mit kleinen Aufmerksamkeiten verwöhnt. Vielen lieben Dank nochmals.
