Great communication and extremely helpful host. Good choice of bedrooms and large area for parking at the front of the property which was ideal not having to worry about parking on the road. Fabulous location, within walking distance to lovely restaurants (really enjoyed Rick Stein’s and Lazy Jack’s) and around the corner to the chain link ferry which takes you to stunning Studland and drive onto Swanage.We were very lucky to have amazing weather so having a garden to sit in at the property, after a day out enjoying the area, was a real plus.
