The cottage was well equipped.

The cottage was well equipped. The pub next door was very handy, we ate there twice and enjoyed both meals. If you like walking there are plenty of walks from the cottage. If you are using your Satnav be aware that the postcode given will take you to Corfe Castle not Kingston, however when you reach Kingston it is very easy to find your cottage.

Wonderful views and a great pub next door.

Wonderful views and a great pub next door. The property needs some repair work doing. The skylight in the bathroom leaked and the septic tank stank the bathroom out. The exterior desperately needs painting and the kitchen table and chairs need repair. We had a lovely stay and used it as a base for our activities.

Up and down

Entry through a very sparse courtyard with pub style garden furniture. The floor levels were very varied, steps throughout the property, interior dated and both showers problematic. Would not recommend the pub next door, food very average, service indifferent

Great Easter break , fantastic weather ? Cottage is next door to Scot Arms pub, decent food and drink if slow service ! Cottage is as described - in need to exterior paintwork - but suited our needs. Good equipment in cottage, flaky Wi-fi and limited basics provided ( 2 x half loo roll for 6, no shower gels etc) but overall a great stay in great location for Dorset area

We had a fab time, it was so relaxing.

We had a fab time, it was so relaxing. Such an amazing location. We can’t wait to stay again. We had one small issue that the heating wasn’t working but the log burner and electric fires ensured we stayed warm. I can’t praise this place enough, we loved it.
