"We’ll be back !"

10.0

What a perfect spot to unwind in the beautiful countryside but close to do many other places to visit in Dorset. The hut has everything you could want for a cosy stay including a welcoming honey, bread, milk, butter and cake offering.

We have been staying for a while now over the last few years. The facilities were lovely and some new additions since we stayed last. We just love the location, the staff and the shepherds hut.

"Family stay June 2023"

10.0

Wonderful stay, far exceeded expectations. I can't wait to visit again. The little touches like firewood and Marsh mellows to roast were a huge hit. Kids had a fabulous time with loads to do but all in a safe family friendly environment

The shepherd's hut 'Bumble' was beautifully clean with added touches on arrival like fresh milk .2 pieced of chocolate torte & a jar of local honey ! All fully equipped with tea coffee and orange juice ! PLEASE NOTE . don't be put off by not having en suite washing facilties Showers & toilets are ou 20 steps away from the hut and were kept very clean . The location of the site is really tranquil and ideal for families with children as all very safe & friendly . The host greeted on arrival which very welcoming and told us we could buy e tra logs if we need them ( 1 nights logs are stored under the hut along with firelighters.) Goats to feed .play bus to run amock in . A band played on our Saturday evening which made it extra fun .

Can't think of anything !

"Nice little weekend away."

7.0

Nice spacious bell tent. Plenty to keep children entertained and safe spaces for them to play. Goats were great to feed and mini crazy golf and ping pong was an added bonus. Very welcoming and friendly staff. Lovely pack of surprise marshmallows for the camp fires in the evening. Great atmosphere in the evening.

Not enough shower or toilet facilities at busy times. Electric power pack provided in the tent was not sufficient to boil kettle so have to use mains power supply which is communal and people use these to charge electrical devices and phones constantly. Beds were also very hard to sleep on but others may prefer this. Children's play bus needs a little attention as it appears very run down.
