Visiting Brownsea
Lovely house, clean and warm. Large bedrooms with comfortable beds.Welcome pack in kitchen was thoughtful. Plenty of hot water and good showers. Further information re heating controls and lighting was required via telephone calls to housekeeper. Light switch for hall stairs and landing was on the 3rd floor - quirk of the house. Otherwise perfect.

Mount Lodge
I stayed here with a group of friends to celebrate my husbands birthday. The house was lovely and the perfect size for people not to feel on top of one other. The location is great and walking distance to pubs/restaurants etc. we had a great weekend and would recommend.

Perfect venue for a family gathering.
The property was all that was promised. A large, well appointed house in an area convenient for the town centre and central for many tourist attractions. We would definitely stay there again.
