Excellent in every way.

Lovely house with great views, well equipped inside and in the garden, hot tub much appreciated. Visitors should be aware that the house is on a hillside (hence the views), a 20 min walk from Bridport town centre and a 45 min walk from West Bay beach - but we were often happy to stay put enjoying the house and garden.

It surpassed our overall expectations
6.0 / 10.0Average·Jun 2025
Reasonably tidy and clean. Beds comfortable. Some mould and damp smell in lower bedrooms. Broken chair on terrace. Water pressure erratic and low in some baths. Electric faults in one bedroom made night bath and shower dark and a concern for older folks. Kitchen well supplied but needs coffee maker. Front entry slippery in rain. Lots of stairs daunting for older people with mobility issues.
