Great time, very comfortable, homely accommodation and a warm welcome from Ian, our host. The lodge was exactly as we expected and we loved the location - so close to the pub with its fantastic food and the Village Shop too. We miss the chickens

Nice village shop. Easy access to most places. Nice to have an outdoor space for the dog, unfortunately we were not lucky with the weather, but we still managed to visit many places.

The owners (Although were not told about our booking) were very swift on preparing the property, helpful, polite and knowledgeable of the surrounding areas including Weymouth area. We really enjoyed this peaceful location with chicken coops to the side of the properties (no rooster I might add). Thank you very much for the perfect stay at short notice!
