7 / 10Good·Sep 2026
Breakfast included
Quiet and private
Check in/out was easy
Staff were out in the day however were reachable via booking.com as we requested extra milk and was delivered to our cabin (was a nice touch). 👍
Host was hospitable
Cabin 1 was positioned in the best place and facing the pub with extra outside space.
The shower head holder is loose so we had to keep re adjusting the height every few seconds.
One side of the mattress has lost its springs so it feels like a hole. (Cabin 1)

We really enjoyed our stay. Comfy cabin. Friendly owner. Lovely and quiet. We hope to stay again.
We liked it all.

Will was very attentive & showed genuine interest in our plans for our stay. Breakfast was freshly cooked & very tasty.
The mini lodges are maybe a bit quirky but a good likeable quirky. Excellent location for using as a base for Dorset. No street lighting to disrupt sleep as at the very beginning of the village. Liked the wildlife like owls etc.
