This is our second stay. We loved the location, very convenient for many places. We visited Lulworth Cove, Bournemouth, Poole, Weymouth, Shaftesbury and Bridport. The accommodation is the perfect place for a week’s getaway.

Excellent accommodation and well equipped cottage in a beautiful setting. Carol and Mick the owners give a great welcome and have a wonderful outlook on life. The word idyllic is often used in exaggeration but in this case the word idyllic is fitting and we would have no hesitation in recommending this to anyone.

The hosts were friendly, available and helpful with lots of tips on places to visit. The Stables were clean, well equipped and comfortable.
We had walks on our doorstep and plenty of interesting places to visit including the world’s only scanners which is a site to behold.
We would definitely book again if in the area.
Thanks Paul and Rob.

Very well stocked kitchen, normally we have to bring almost everything. The room is great and the garden area is almost as great. Only problem we had was drying the bath towels. Could do with some sort of cheap retractible washing line? Other than that the place was fine.

We stayed for a week last year and decided that two weeks would provide an opportunity to really explore the surrounding countryside and nearby coast.
We returned to this property as it is ideal for this in addition to having itself a lovely garden and environment. The host lives nearby and is extremely helpful and approachable.
I cannot recommend too highly this property if you are looking for a nice retreat away from the city. The property has everything you would need. Wool is just down the road and has a large Spa convenience shop and there are numerous pubs/restaurants around. The host will update you as to the " better ones " .

Although compact, very clean & comfortable. Everything you could possibly need for a wonderful relaxing stay.
Beautiful gardens, lots of wildlife to keep us amused. Hedgehogs, squirrels & a wide variety of birds visit the garden at the Stables.
Paul , the host made us very welcome , he is a perfect host , very discreet , but available if you need anything .
He invited us to look around his private garden , we were really impressed , it is stunning , well cared for , also it's a magnet for a wide variety of wildlife .
The Stables is well located for visiting nearby popular attractions , Monkey world , the tank museum , the breathtaking Jurrasic coast & Weymouth are a very short drive away.
Lovely walks around the property too.
Thank you to Rob & Jones the cat for allowing us to wander around your private space .
We would be happy to visit again.

We had a lovely time on our stay in this cosy and beautifully clean property all was as described, and the milk, tea and cookies were a lovely touch. The booking in process was really easy and Paul was a good host. The garden is nicely kept and a paradise if you like birdwatching and the beautiful local surrounding area makes this a wonderful place to stay. We would definately recommend

An especially convenient holiday accommodation for us as it’s all on the same level and my husband and I are in our eighties, well stocked kitchen and all sparkling clean. We’re just sorry our stay was not longer.

The property is very attractive - comfortable and nicely arranged. The area is peaceful with an interesting nature reserve with lovely views an enjoyable short walk away. The garden area around the cottage is delightful - lovely spot to relax - read, chat, food and drink if weather allows. It’s a central location for places and areas of interest.
