Not our usual destination but thoroughly what we needed. A secluded period cottage. Thought we were going the wrong way going down to ringstead but didn’t go wrong once thanks to the pinpoint instructions. 5 min from the beach and central to a host of other attractions and activities. Be prepared to give way a lot on the road in and out. But that’s not a bad thing. The host is a gent. Easy to contact and willing to assist in any way. It may have been a different story if it were raining and we couldn’t use the outside space but our luck held and we had a great time. Thinking of booking again.

Our fifth stay and the place is as magical as ever. The cottage is a real step back in time but with all the mod cons and comfort you could need, with the owners regularly making improvements. The location is what makes it, surrounded by peace, nature and wildlife. Again we saw deers just beyond the garden and their footprints along the private pathway to the beach, which runs through the surrounding woodland alongside the gentling trickling glen. We will be back.

Very special place. No road noise. Just birdsong. Stroll through glen to the beach was lovely.
