This picturesque coastline is also a popular base for long walks via the South West Coast path or you can head inland and explore the many pretty villages nearby, including Corfe Castle, home to historic castle ruins cared for by the National Trust.

Beautifully decorated holiday home. For me the main double bed was way too hard and I resorted to sleeping on the sofa but my husband slept in it all week. Drive steep but manageable. There is road side parking but there was no space all week we were there so the drive had to be used.

Quite a large semi but only one small WC upstairs could be a real problem especially when catering for 4 people. Really needs a downstairs loo too. Plumbing is real guesswork as some taps have hot on the left (which is the correct standard) others have cold flowing from the left. Found this very enjoying at times. Otherwise, a good place to stay apRead moreart from all the hills and a really steep driveway. Hide

The house was really comfortable, clean and well equipped. In a nice quiet street and perfect for walks to the coastal path and not too far to walk into the town centre.

Nice location with great view from window ,As we are getting on a bit we found the hilly bits quite hard but all of our journeys were by car so wasn't a problem . The house was very comfortable and every thing you need was there and in good working order. Fresh and clean.

The House was spotless, and comfortable. Location for taking walks along the South Coast path was excellent, and there are pubs, and a conveinence store within 10 mins walk. Only downer was that the driveway is very steep.

This is a very comfortable home well equipped. Would have preferred if it had a fridge/freezer rather just a fridge with an ice box. Drive very steep but parking is available on the road
