The Piggery - Corfe Mullen

Beautiful little location, perfect for a peaceful relax which was much needed. Great hosts :)

It’s in a nice spot. But that’s it. Otherwise this is a shocking place that Booking.com and others should not have on their system.

UPDATE: You'll see the response from the owners... it's noticeable that they a) never presented themselves to us when we arrived or during our stay, so we had no idea where they were or how to find them, and b) they didn't have the courtesy to respond to my direct email to them. That's telling - only interested in preserving their public profile. And NO refund offered.... DO NOT RENT THIS PLACE. The people who own it clearly don’t care about hygiene or your welfare - they just want to steal your money. This place is dirty, smelly, mouldy and in desperate need of urgent improvement. I would give it ZERO stars if that was possible - 1 is too high. On opening the door we were hit by a smell that is hard to describe - drains, damp, mould, bit of everything. And impossible to get rid of - why? Because beyond the patio doors, it’s impossible to ventilate. The worst smells were by the (unopenable) back door and in the bathroom - which has no ventilation fan (and is therefore illegal under building regulations). The second thing we noticed was the four flies happily buzzing around the room. The third was the inevitable build up of disgusting mould around the shower (see the pictures). Everything felt dirty, unloved…. When we returned at 10pm the smell was even worse and I seriously wanted to drive home - only the lateness of the hour and having had a beer prevented me. And only on the way home did we read back through the reviews…. Once you get past the (obviously fake) 9 out of 10, no comments left ones, you start to see an obvious pattern: people demanding refunds, saying it smells and is mouldy, saying the bathroom needs ventilating and refitting. That was from two and three years ago - and clearly nothing has been done since. Appalling - I’ve basically had £100 stolen from me. I will be complaining to Trading Standards and to Booking.com, in the hope of having these people’s ability to rent this disgusting place taken away.

Traffic noise

Well equipped and clean

Bed for us a little small albeit good matress

- Lovely accommodation with outside space to enjoy the sunshine & fresh air - BBQ & cooking facilities with tea & coffee provided - Location to Jurassic Coast walks

- Bed was not super comfy, but perfectly fine for 2 nights

The property is much more spacious than it looks from the photos. It is well equipt, nicely furnished and comfortable. There is a lovely view over the fields from the garden and the area is lovely.

The road is close by and almost constantly noisy. You can hear it inside the property, it didn't disturb me but with the door/window open, or when sitting in the garden the noise was intrusive, which is a shame as otherwise it would be idyllic.
