Tucked away and lovely
We stayed three night in the garden studio and it was great.
We were provided lots of information prior to our arrival. Paul met us when we arrived and showed us around.
The garden studio is lovely. Very comfortable bed room with a table and chairs. Well Stocked kitchen with plenty of utensils, a single ring camping cooker if you want to cook.
They provided breakfast foods for us which was a lovely touch.
We really liked it and the location is great, two minutes from the town centre. Great for a long weekend stay.

A Secret Hideaway
A lovely, cosy cabin with an enclosed decked area, perfect for me & my labrador to have a 4 day getaway. Short walk into town, short drive to the coast. Delightful place.

Very comfortable stay
The space was very well thought out with everything i needed. Easy walking distance into town. Very friendly and helpful hosts.
Very nice property and close to all the facilities, nice to be left milk, bread, jam and lots of other nice and essential stuff.
The only thing we didn't like was the property itself is not very dog friendly, wasn't allowed to let him off the lead in the garden and the decking area was only about 5ft by 6ft, photos were a bit misleading and also the little walkway from back gate to property is pitch black after 9pm, so had to buy a torch to take the dog out.

Brilliant Stay
It is a wonderful place to stay. Very quiet but very close to all the shops etc. Well maintained, very welcoming and ideal for two people. We would like to add a big thank you to the owner for her patience in trying to show us how to work the TV. This is our second time and hopefully will return again.
thank you Gill and Roger

Summer holiday
Julia and Pall, the host, very welcoming. Garden Studio very comfortable. Had everything we needed. Welcome breakfast was provided. Tea & coffee available. Cleaning items. Bathroom just perfect with a shower.
Great location, easy walking distance to centre of town.
Parking can be a bit of an issue, but, there is free parking after 6pm at the police station, a 5 minute walk from the property.
Thank you Julia and Paul for a fabulous stay. Will definitely be back.

The Cabin
I phoned the host (Julia) when i was half an hour away. They came out to meet me and showed me in. She showed me where everything was. I had her number in case i needed something. The accomodation was spotless, lots of info regarding taxis etc. I was there for a wedding but wish i booked an extra couple of days. Can highly recommend this accommodation. Lovely hosts.

Bridport stay
Not enough outdoor space to relax. Not suitable if taking a dog. Would only recommend for a short stay. TV didn't work well and was very small. Easy walking distance to Bridport.

Oasis in Bridport
When we first arrived, I must admit I had reservations. The area is a large housing estate.however, once you enter the garden and the property it is like an oasis. Very welcoming hosts, generous welcome pack including lovely fresh bread, butter and jams.
