Rey quaint stay
Beautiful old conversation not overdone hot tub was great! Just an overnight stay but would go again. Just one small gripe, the mezzanine bed area needs proper steps as it was painful on bare feet, but it would not prevent us from coming back again.

A gem in a great location
Lovely cottage with character, the fireplace is a great feature. It had everything you need for a great stay. The jacuzzi is a plus. Clean kitchen all dishware new looking and dishwasher cleaned. Double bed on mezzanine requires young legs to access but is first choice for the kids. Shower a bit of a trickle. lighting a bit dark. We loved our stay and we would love to come back.

Wonderful couple of days
The Cartshed is like stepping back in time. Flagstone floors, big wooden beams but with all the modern conveniences you need. Loved the hot tub. Just what you need after the climb up from Durdle door !
So reasonably priced too. We will definitely be back
