The village is surrounded by rolling countryside, including Corfe Castle Common, which is criss-crossed with miles of footpaths through spectacular scenery. A steam railway line runs from Corfe Castle to Swanage (4 miles) and is a great way to visit this seaside town, which boasts traditional amusements and a sandy beach.

You will find space to dine just opposite. The contemporary kitchen is just along the hallway and is equipped with an electric range-style cooker, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, microwave, Nespresso coffee machine and washer/dryer. Heading back into the hallway will take you to the bedrooms. There are three to choose from: a pretty single, a charming double and a spacious king-size bedroom, with plenty of hanging space for your clothes. Completing the accommodation is a stylish bathroom with a shower over the bath and WC.

Loved our stay . This is a warm bungalow hence we only had the heating on briefly in the morning. One is able to adjust the heating as required. , would be a bonus in a very cold spell. The other cottages we have used have been somewhat chilly. You can easily walk into the village and to the fields if you have your dog holidaying as well. Good locaRead morel pubs and food, from reasonable to expensive. This is the best cottage for comfort and cleanliness we have stayed in hence the 5 star review. Hide

We had an issue on Saturday afternoon with the freezer and contacted the management company. They had someone out to look at it with in a couple of hours and then on Monday even the owners of the house contacted us to make sure everything was ok. We really appreciated this level of care and attention
