    We loved Arne barn the area is amazing and comfort is good in the house and well equipped kitchen , the bed at top of stairs could do with walls to make a proper bedroom we loved it and will return .Great for the dogs and the little beach was a great surprise .

    Unusual to find every draw, cupboard, shelf full of the owners ‘junk’. House needs a thorough sort out. Kitchen - unless you are a giant you are going to struggle to use the microwave. Also I would recommend you bring a cloth to use in the kitchen as the owners don’t seem to think you need to wipe anything down during your stay. Overall the house is well equipped and somewhat quirky, but in a good way. Garden is intriguing. We enjoyed our stay. Great for wildlife.

    A unique place with a very distinctive feel. At the edge of Arne, with deer framed through a break in the foliage and swallows in the car port. A place to relax. Lots to recommend, but the feeling of being in the edge of everything but still accessible from Wareham, Corfe or the coast is what we took away from it.
