Good but can be better 🙂
Very nice place to visit, warm and stylish with wonderful food and service. Place where you can relax and enjoy a peaceful countryside life. Cottage room are very nice with own fire plce and comfy bed but smells old and damp would be nice to have some better ventilation there. Same as swimming pool and jacuzzi nice pool but very shallow, once you in jacuzzi is hard to breathe due to chlorine and bad ventilation. Pet friendly but if you with a pet you have only option to stay in the cottage rather than main hotel.

Amazing 😍
It was an amazing weekend. This was going to be a solo trip, but then a friend joined me at the last minute. They were so accommodating. It surpassed all expectations. The staff was so friendly and helpful. The location is in the middle of nowhere, so there’s nothing to do around the property. But, it’s perfect to completely disconnect from the world. Close to Jurassic Coast. Would definitely book again!
