Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Dorset

Dave and Emma are the perfect hosts. They were so accommodating of our needs and super flexible in helping us to prepare for our stay and celebration. The property is beautiful, it’s peaceful and you feel right at home. Our teenage son and family children loved the games room as a ‘den’ to escape to whilst we enjoyed sitting on the deck with food and drinks. Dave and Emma have thought of everything, if they don’t have it then you don’t need it. The kitchen amenities were just fantastic, everything was there, clean and easy to use. The mobile signal wasn’t great this weekend and broadband struggled a little, but being surrounded by our favourite people, it didn’t matter too much. We would love to stay with our families again to enjoy this beautiful property. Thank you Dave and Emma again, so so much!

Having grown up in the area, Kennel Farm is the place we choose to come back for our family holiday every year. We love the house and surroundings. Excellent location and Tanya is a perfect host. Highly recommend.

Extremely peaceful and private location. The property is really nicely decorated with a massive comfy bed. Annie the host was really friendly and attentive. We had a lovely stay.

had a quick one night stay, but beautiful place and in a lovely village, peaceful, quiet with our own terrace. cecily was very welcoming and happy to advise places to go and visit and where to get anything we needed. interesting history of the property, beautiful garden, inside was lovely and clean and comfortable, with tea and coffee. would certainly recommend as somewhere to stay.

We had a lovely four nights stay at Suki and Owen's place and really enjoyed it. The views across the rolling countryside are wonderful and peaceful and we enjoyed the sunsets sat outside the barn. Listening to the wildlife and the owls at dawn were also highlights. A great location for both coastal and countryside walks. Cosy accommodation with everything we needed for our stay and comfy bed. Would highly recommend.

Strides Barn was a lovely place to stay. Lots of amenities and plenty of board games to keep everyone entertained. Only slight downside was it was very hot inside the cabin and we did not seem to have any control over it.. Other than that it was lovely. Good views, plentiful wildlife and lots of areas to explore a short car drive away.

Lovely place, very peaceful and relaxing. Lovely gesture by the host with the bottle of Prosecco thank you 😊 Claire was very helpful and responsive to messages. Before the trip she sent us some information for things in the area, places to eat etc, was very helpful. Lovely little hide away, nice and private. Just as the pictures showed, Beautiful. We both really enjoyed our stay thank you. Angela and Marie 😀

Harriet and Gideon were so lovely, communicative, and helpful whenever we asked any questions about the local area. It was particularly lovely when Gideon put up a new swing and our 4 year old helped- Gideon listened and answered every question she had. The place is beautiful and we loved the cottage, which is spacious without feeling uncosy somehow. The grounds which are perfect for children and one sunset we watched our daughter play while we ate tea on our private terrace overlooking the tree-filled garden. Just a great experience and would recommend for anyone travelling to the area to explore and relax in equal measure! Thanks Harriet and Gideon!

Anna's place is a beautiful. It is done up to a beautiful standard, and a great location to explore Weymouth, durdle door and Lulworth cove. Positives: - beautiful welcome pack on arrival - clean linen and towels - all instructions were easy to use - lovely spacious and airy - It has a spar right next door. - parking onsite - jacuzzi was nice Negatives -I believe Anna has new cleaners that day so kitchen and bathroom weren't 100% clean and bit musty. -the garden could do with a bit of maintenance - there is no stair gate for stairs worth noting for people with young kids. - no microwave (if needed) Overall it was a fab stay and we would definitely stay there again. Anna was quick to respond to my feedback and a superb host

The beach hut is a perfect retreat. It is beautifully kept and has a gorgeous private garden which goes right up to the water’s edge. It’s wonderfully located less than 5 minutes walk from the main Sandbanks beach and Rick Stein’s restaurant. The Studland chain ferry is also very close giving access to stunning Shell Bay and the wild National Trust beaches. Michele was very friendly & provided many thoughtful touches including her homemade lemon drizzle cake - sublime! I would love to return as it’s a perfect spot from which to explore this area or just to meditate on your bed with a sea view. Thanks Michele!

We had a lovely night at The Garden House. Ruth was a great host and left us to enjoy our privacy. The house was spacious and beautifully decorated. Very comfortable bed and fully equipped kitchen. Extremely dog friendly with lovely gardens.

My husband, 10-year-old daughter and myself have just returned from a truly amazing week, the property is beautiful, with facilities that far exceeded expectations. We had such a relaxing time; the beds are super comfy; led in bed looking out to sea with a coffee in the morning was a true highlight. The gardens are beautifully kept and being gated and private we had no worries with our daughter playing out. The walk down to Watcombe Beach, albeit steep on the way back up but 100% worth it; we took our paddleboard down and went swimming on a number of occasions, the water is very calm, on 2 occasions we were in the water and within 20ft off us were 2 seals! The hot tub was perfect, lovely fluffy robes provided to keep off the chill. We used the BBQ each evening and ate out on the patio. Susan is an incredible host, nothing is too much trouble, very informative and exceedingly helpful, she really did enhance our stay and made us feel as if we were staying in a home from home.

We had a lovely break away, the accommodation had everything we wanted and as described. It was easy and quick to walk into Bath centre while being in a very quiet street. Would recommend.

Stayed here for two nights and really enjoyed our stay! It’s such a cosy place, kitchen had all we needed and came stocked with good coffee which is always good! Living room was comfortable and though WiFi is ‘rural wifi’ as described, it was plenty quick enough to watch Netflix in the evenings. Bed was very comfy and clean. Bathroom spotless and with a bath my partner describes as a dream, she really did not want to get out of it! 100% would recommend and would definitely stay again. Great location to discover the surrounding area!

David and Pam was very welcoming.Stayed for 1 night enjoyed our stay very cosy everything we wanted and more... The bread and eggs was a really nice.The apartment was close to everything we needed.Would definitely be coming back and would highly recommend this apartment. The hosts went above and beyond to welcome you and making the apartment feel cosy

We had a lovely couple of relaxing nights at Carol’s gorgeous apartment. It was just as described in the listing, felt so homely, peaceful and comfortable. Thanks Carol, we would be happy to come and stay again!

The shepherds hut was a lovely peaceful place to stay, it came equipped with everything we needed & was the Perfect break needed. Hot tub was lovely and bonus for the hut having its own bathroom. Decorated lovely nice & clean & overall great place to stay. Many thanks!

The lodge far exceeded our expectations, which were already high based on previous comments. It is beautifully presented, well equipped, and very welcoming. Emma was warm and responsive in her communications, and it was lovely to meet her during our stay.

We had one of our most amazing stays here! Place is meticulously crafted for you to relax, have some nice hot tube experience, roast some bbq and just chill! Location is near a lot of cool places to visit — Oxford, Bath, Stonehenge and many more, make sure to ask Richard some recommendations! Richard is an amazing host with great attention to details. Fresh coffee beans or anything you need from a shop? He’s here to help you. Let alone wealth of experience that he’s ready to share during a nice morning outside coffee! Must visit! We’ll be back loads of times!

Lovely, peaceful stay, just what was needed - cabin was tidy, clean and private, lovely touches with the eggs and homemade jam and the animals were the absolute highlight! Nothing better than waking up to find some goats ready to greet you☺️ Carole was friendly, quick to respond and made the experience smooth. Would definitely recommend for a quiet getaway with the option to explore towns and beaches further afield

I enjoyed a beautiful, peaceful stay at The Studio. The place was spotless with everything you could possible need for a restful stay and Alison was a wonderful host with easy communication. I would absolutely recommend booking, The Studio itself is very comfortable and beautifully laid out. Thank you very much!

Thank you for a great stay Patrick and Margaret. We had such a lovely break and enjoyed staying at your Airbnb. It was lovely, tidy and very comfortable. Placed in your lovely garden, which was perfect. It was lovely chatting with you both and of course Ralph. We walked to both the Royal Oak and the High corner inn in the forest and had wonderful food. Thank you for a great time

My group of friends had a brilliant few days at the cabin. Rachel and Paul’s communication was superb and have clearly thought through the guest experience thoroughly. The cabin was clean and well-equipped, and the surrounding property was scenic and spacious. We particularly loved using the badminton, BBQ area, hammock and rope swing provided. We’d recommend it to anyone looking for peace and quiet, close to the amenities of a town, and surrounded by beautiful countryside.
