Very comfortable, warm and well equipped and spacious, excellent location for walking into the town and Durlston County Park.
Mrs Sharman
We had a great stay as a family of 4. The flat was well equipped and had everything we needed for our stay. There were some building works opposite during the week with noise starting from 7am some days - didn’t bother us as children have us up much earlier but might annoy others. Great location as a base to explore the town (albeit v.steep hill to get home!), and surrounding Dorset area. We would stay again!
Mr Buchanan
