A great place to stay, a little remote and the the narrow roads maybe a challenge.
A great place to stay, a little remote and the the narrow roads maybe a challenge. The accommodation is great and dogs are made most welcome.Bridport, Lyme Regis and West Bay are all about 30 minutes away and great for a visit.

Lovely peaceful holiday.
Lovely peaceful holiday. The Forge windows in the ceiling really needing cleaning inside and out. All covered in cobwebs too. Couldn't use shower as scolding hot. Owner said was getting fixed the following week although I noticed in the guest book several people had complained in the previous month's. All in all I would really recommend this lovely place.

A lovely, cosy cottage that has absolutely everything you need - as well as extras for your dog which we really appreciated. It’s in a pretty countryside setting with not much around it. We went on some amazing walks around Chard with the dog which are worth a look at.

The cottage was beautiful, clean and all provided for. We didn’t realise that we were quiet away from the main coast, and felt the near by walk access was restricted. We would if ideally liked to have been nearer to towns , but the cottage was very cosy and great if you want to escape from it all.

Lovely property just a little to far out for us
Shame about the stove looks like a wood burner but is actually electric a balanced flue gas would be better
Having no Wi Fi was a nuisance
I maybe should have read info a better

Excellent accommodation and facilities The Forge is a lovely place to stay.
Excellent accommodation and facilities The Forge is a lovely place to stay. The access roads to it are narrow and if you are unfortunate to meet another car coming in the opposite direction it could be a little stressful, other than that we had a great holiday.

A super little cottage - home from home.
A super little cottage - home from home. The only setback was the very narrow roads one has to traverse to access the cottage.
