"Great stay! Excellent location to reach many attractions on the Jurassic Coast, always attentive host and please don't miss the best breakfast, one of the best I have had in any B&B!"
"Nice and clean - a good stay. The hosts were really great when I arrived quite late at night due to a missed train, and were really helpful in making sure I could get right into my room easily. I really appreciated their helpfulness and easy communication.
There are a number of pets about the house including dogs, who make a bit of noise in the evening and early morning, but not too bad.
I would be quite happy to stay here again."
