"We were a mixed age family group and had a really great stay at this house. It careered for all our multigenerational needs from a 4month old to 78yr old. The garden and tennis court were a great hit. The host told us of the walk down from the house to Charmouth which was beautiful. A super stay in this lovely exploring the area. Thank you "

"We stayed for two nights at Owen Sound and were super impressed with the property and facilities. The house was immaculately clean and the gardens beautifully kept. The house was well equipped and even small details had been thought about. We had a couple of small queries which were answered promptly by the owner. We really couldn’t have asked for a better place for our stay. In fact we were so delighted we were looking to book again for later this year, but sadly the property was already...

"My husband and I celebrated our 20 year wedding anniversary with my parents. The Coach House is beautifully decorated! We were lucky with the weather and spent a lot of our evenings in the garden. A previous review mentioned the garden not being secure for their dog. Before booking I checked if this was being rectified as we have 2 Westies. I was assured it would be before the start of the season, and confirm the garden is secure for Westie sized and upwards dogs. As well as Bournemouth...

"Location and accommodation was lovely. Owners were lovely although difficult to locate on expiry. Didn’t get to see them to say goodbye. Only downside was the shower/bath in the large rear bedroom did not work as there was no cold water coming through. A thermostatic cartridge problem maybe. So had to share another en-suite!"

Ideal location to take advantage of quirky shops and large choice of beautiful cafes, ocean views and atmosphere that Swanage has to offer. The property was perfect size for our party of 6 and was well supplied with everything that we needed for our stay. Parking was a challenge, but once spaces were obtained due to great public transport to local beaches and walking distance to the town there was little need to use...
