We enjoyed our stay at New Barn and the rural surroundings. The location was very central for exploring Dorset, and we had some wonderful meals at nearby pubs. The house was very well equipped for self-catering.

New Barn has everything you might need for a great stay in Dorset. High pressure hot shower. Lots of crockery, cutlery and kitchen equipment, comfy sofas and beds. Games room well equipped, nothing broken. The TV even has Netflix and amazon prime so we could log into our subscriptions. Plus electric car charging. We’d stay here again if in the area.
