Very welcoming hosts , A quiet location and short drive to A35 . Great for dogs but Owls retreat garden was a patio so my dogs prefer grass but could walk just outside gate .

We had a lovely week at Owl's Roosts. Our hosts were welcoming and friendly and the cottage was a real home from home - everything you needed and more. Our little dog settled in straight away!A great base for exploring the Jurassic Coast and nearby attractions. Shops nearby and plenty of food options if you want to eat out. We will definitely be back. Thank you Julie and Mark.

The resident donkeys were lovely and friendly. Good location for exploring Poole Harbour and Dorset generally. Will definitely be back.
