Thank you for such a wonderful Stay! The house is so well equipped for both children + adults + the selection of games have been a big hit!! Such a lovely home in a beautiful setting we loved being in the middle of the village where we have been able to pop over to the local shop + bakery as well as visiting both the pub + hotel for dinner. Superb food + how great to be a short walk from the house. Thanks again

What a beautiful home! We swapped our usual family summer holiday abroad for Dorset in the heat wave. The house was so well equipped, cool and comfortable, the showers ran slightly hot but otherwise we has an unforgettable week and are sad to be leaving!
