Dorset: Häuser

We felt good and comfortable in Sunnybank from the first moment, enjoyed the large balcony for meals and a bottle of wine in the sunny evenings. The flat is located perfectly with only little traffic, but just a short distance to town, shops, beach, restaurants and pubs (don´t miss The White Swan). Really nice and helpful contact to Sarah; thank you very much. It´s a long way to go from nothern Germany to Swanage, but it´s worth it and we´ll surely come back.

Fifehead Magdalen is a beautiful little hamlet in the Blackmore Vale. Very rural , but close to many attractions in North Dorset and the bordering counties. Good farm shop and convenient petrol station Spar supermarket close by. We especially loved the more unknown Minterne Gardens and Athelhampton House and Gardens. The cottage is a heaven for book lovers and travel enthusiasts, so we immediately felt at home . As the owner is about the same age as us , we also loved the CD Collection and more than often listened to (e.g.) an old Simon and Garfunkel disc at the large kitchen table with a mug of coffee and lovely morning sunshine. That said, the living room is a bit dark during the day and the sofa and easy chair were old and lovely but sagging a bit. The cottage has a lovely lived in feeling and was decorated in a travel vibe theme with travel memorabilia , but cluttered (in a good way). So do not expect contemporary uncluttered chic. The cottage was very clean, but wear and tear can be seen. Not a purpose build holiday property but a real home you seem to have been given to stay in for a while by a trusting friend. Lovely country views from the back part of the back garden (bench) , but not from the patio because the garden shed is blocking the view. Absolutely great property to immerse yourself for a few days in , to quote from the guest book, “ the library of Dorset”.

Old Diary war unser 2. Zwischenstop auf dem Weg nach Cornwall. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt in der umgebauten alten Scheune. Nach einem Sightseeing Tag relaxten wir bei einem Glas die Abendsonne auf der Terrasse. Von hier aus besuchten wir Corfe Castle, Kingston Lacy, Lulworth Cove und natürlich Durdle Door. Wir kommen gerne wieder

Ein schöner Ort und angenehme, freundliche und hilfsbereite Gastgeber!

Wir haben einen sehr schönen zweiwöchigen Urlaub in Stoborough verbringen dürfen. Das Cottage war für uns als Familie ideal und es hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Sowohl die nähere Umgebung als auch weiter weg liegende Ziele bieten sehr schöne Ausflüge. Dorset ist ein tolles Urlaubsziel und bietet alles, was man sich in einem Sommerurlaub wünscht.
