The Manor Hotel by Greene King Inns
Cleanliness was tops. Distance to Heathrow and ease of shuttle to the airport were great, but we expected it to be free. When we called to book, and ask about a shuttle, we found out it was available, but no one mentioned a per person fee....we had spent all our pounds so we wouldn't take any home ...

The Old Coach House in Dorset's Area of Outstanding Beauty - 1 bedroom
Had to contact the owner as the hot tub was not ready for our stay and had to be filled and warmed up. We then only had two nights in the hot tub instead of three we had paid for the hot tub via the booking agent but the owner was not aware of this !!!

Set in the heart of Lyme Regis in the conservation area of the old town
Excellent accommodation, spotlessly clean and extremely well equipped. A cosy warm cottage minutes from beaches, restaurants and shopping. Highly recommended!
