Helpful and friendly staff prompt check in, chalet was spacious for all of us. Fully equipped and kitchen had everything we needed was perfect for a short break. Ideal location would return again.

Amazing value for money... such lovely location in the forest. Good location for the coast not far and Wareham for supplies and good pubs / restaurants. Will definitely be coming back.

Comms were good from beginning to end and everything was easy and clear. The property was clean and well equipped a minor issue was wear and tear on the dining chairs and honestly the mattresses were too soft for my personal taste

I have stayed here a few times, never been disappointed and will always come back for another visit.

10/10

Spacious and well laid out accommodation. Well equipped and comfortable. Ground floor accommodation with great accessibility. Only negatives were that heating was way too hot and couldn’t control, showers cycled randomly from boiling hot to cold and a lot of negative instruction signs telling us what not to do or couldn’t do gave it a bit of a negative feel.

The log cabin was stunning in beautiful surroundings. It was raining unfortunately for most of our stay but we still had an amazing escape. Having popped out to collect a takeaway from a local town we even encountered a deer on the hotel grounds, grazing and seeming unfazed by us. The only slight drawbacks were that I found the beds too soft for me personally. I would advise anyone staying to plan their eating in advance as the hotel resort is quite remote. The towns being a 25 minute drive away. Stunning scenery, just don’t expect everything to be on your doorstep

Everything was great with our visit! The lodge was easy to locate, immaculate, and the staff at the check in desk were fantastic. Would definitely stay here again! The private sauna in the lodge was brilliant too! Couldn't fault the visit at all

The property was clean. Just the beds were single Beds in all couple rooms. Would be great if they had double beds instead.

A very clean and spacious accommodation! A beautiful holiday home with everything you need for a comfortable self catered stay. Perfectly located for exploring the amazing jurrasic coast, only 20 minutes from the amazing Lulworth cove and Durdle door. The only negative is that the reception staff did not communicate much upon arrival, just handed over the keys and directed us to our lodge! Then again at check out, the receptionist was dismissive and didn't even ask if we'd had a good stay!

Thank you! Our stay in Lulworth house was unique. Everything in the house was up to standard, but unfortunately the weather and the storm created a lot of inconvenience. The damage to the electricity left us without the opportunity to prepare food, heating and hot water. Lighting and firewood were provided for the fireplace which helped us have a great time. We will definitely visit this place again!

Excellent facility for a joint family trip. The washing machine broke on the first day but they took our washing and did it all, very good, as we had two small children. Otherwise everything was great and the staff were very helpful. Good location to visit many places of interest and fun.

Great for families, very well equipped and spacious. Some appliances in kitchen not all in perfect order but overall everything needed and the addition of a separate utility room was so useful.
