This property is quite isolated, and it’s difficult to rate amenities during the current crisis.
This property is quite isolated, and it’s difficult to rate amenities during the current crisis. Two supermarkets are within a drive away.
We knew it was isolated and particularly chose this because of Covid precautions. She provided hand gel. It was very easy to keep clean.
Owner was very friendly when she visited and emptied bins.

The property & location is lovely.The owner is on site & very helpful.?
The description of this property warns that there are many steps
Which may put some people off well I wonder if anyone from ‘HomeAway’ actually visited the property before listing it as there is not a step in sight. We also want to know how the property owner had never heard of ‘HomeAway ‘ & lists her property through ‘ Cotages.com’ & we want to know why we have paid 2 booking charges & will be taking this matter up with both companies in due course.

Such a simple and uncluttered - therefore incredibly pleasant - place to stay, perfect for one or two people. It's very quiet, extremely clean, well equipped and with plenty of very hot water. The village setting is delightful, and it's plum in the middle of beautiful Dorset countryside, just a short ride to the beaches. Highly recommended.
