The communication was excellent and check-in was very easy- collecting the keys from the local post office which is within walking distance of the cottage.The cottage is situated on the main road to the chain ferry but traffic isn’t an issue as it stops about 6pm and you don’t hear any noise whilst in the back garden anyway.The house itself has all that you need for a very comfortable stay with easy parking at the back. The garden is VERY big and also secure which was essential for our dog. The views from the cottage and garden are beautiful, looking over the rolling hills of Studland.There are various walks straight from the house including an easy walk to the local pub which has a massive garden (a field) and outside under cover eating area All in all, we made a very good choice for a relaxing walking holiday, very close to lovely beeches and countryside, along with other places further afield. The big bonus was the bus stop directly outside the cottage, allowing trips to Swanage, so you didn’t have to worry about parking and allowed you to have a drink or two! The busses were very frequent and cheap.We would highly recommend as stay if visiting this beautiful part of Dorset.
