About the host

Hosted by Denise Clemens

Host profile image
In 2018 we returned from France where we had lived for 17 years. In France we owned a small Hamlet of luxury holiday cottages and now we have returned to our homeland to do the same thing! In 2019 we renovated a little cottage in the heart of historic Canterbury; creating a luxury holiday cottage for guests to enjoy.
We then decided to move to the West Country where our heart had been all along, so sold up and said goodbye to Kent.
In 2021 We came across Tudor Rose cottage by accident and completely fell in love with the cottage and the lovely village of Stourpaine. We knew instantly that she would make a perfect couple’s retreat in this stunning part of delightful Dorset!

What makes this property unique

We pride ourselves on offering our guests a warm welcome and a super comfortable stay. Fresh flowers, crisp cotton linen and a welcome starter pack await!
