We very much enjoyed our recent stay at Castle Forge. The property is as described and was very clean and comfortable for our party of five adults and two small children. The courtyard garden was lovely and had glorious views across to Corfe Castle. Surrounding area is lovely and convenient for visiting Swanage beach. Very handy to have the Scott Arms pub next door. No issues with parking.Communication with host was very good and any queries were dealt with promptly and efficiently. We hope to visit again.
What a beautiful part of the world - and perfectly showcased by this property! Stunning views, lovely pub next door, glorious walks straight from the house, minutes in the car from beaches, hills and castles. Looking forward to coming back!
This house worked really well for my family (two kids under 9) and grandparents to explore Corfe Castle and other places in Dorset. The house has an interesting history and is literally connected to the Scott Arms pub. It made for a great trip! Gorgeous view out the front. We were all really comfortable.

The property is wonderfully placed to explore the area of Jurassic coast around Swanage.We chose to have a family holiday there to connect branches of the family who live abroad in an area which has significance to us.The property is very quirky and quaint. There are issues with moving around as the property is single storey but on many levels with sets of stairs between the various levels. This can be a challenge even for the able bodied as some of the stairs are particularly deep.The bedding provided is all feather and four of our party (of 7) had feather allergies which the property management company were unwilling to replace with polyester meaning we had to provide, and transport with us, our own bedding.However. the property is beautifully located with views across the valley and of Corfe Castle which were amazing. Watching the sun rise over the valley and highlighting the castle was magical. It is also easy travelling into Swanage and surrounding towns for visits to the beach, museums etc. We also took a ride on the Devon Belle, Swanage to Norden steam train and enjoyed a fabulous cream tea whilst admiring the beautiful countryside.

Dear Serena,
We're pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay, the location and views!
We do feel we need to reply on some of your points, however, that this property had never been advertised as having hypoallergenic bedding on the listing.
Replacing all the bedding to foam pillows and duvets was not possible or affordable for the owners exclusively for your group also we hope you understand.
Holiday homes are invested in and furnished based on the preferences of the families that own them primarily — and feather pillows and duvet sets are often the preferred choice for owners, as they're the more natural/greener materials, than synthetic options.
We appreciate allergies are a real issue, and take them very seriously, which is why we offered to you before you stayed a free cancellation if the bedding was unacceptable. But we do suggest in future to check prior to booking on the bedding materials more thoroughly.
But we thank you for your booking and honest feedback Serena, and want to wish you and your family well.
