The holiday apartment is very comfortable, very well catered and within walking distance to local shops. Short drive to Bournemouth and beaches.
The driveway is very narrow and steep, which some may not prefer.
The check in time is really late, 4pm and check out very early at 10am which eats into stay. Having said that, the hosts were very flexible and arranged for us to check in earlier with our little one.
A 10 am checkout which requires that you clean up, wash and put all kitchen utensils, cutlery etc, vacuum and strip beds (as per the rules), is a bit cheeky and the only accommodation where I’ve experienced this.
The kitchen is well equipped although the only recommendation would be to replace the saucepans which do not sit flat on the cooking surface.
The side gate which backs onto grassy area where bins are kept, had a lot of broken glass on the ground which should not have been there from a H&S perspective.
That said, it’s the first accommodation where there were doggy poo bags and dog shampoo provided for our pooch.
There were numerous books, board games etc provided and attention to detail was impressive in some respects more notably the salt for gritting the drive etc in the event of snow, fans provided for the hotter weather and bbq equipment.
On balance, very good accommodation which would have scored higher if the check in timings and check out requirements were more in keeping with general accommodation timings and requirements usually 2pm check in and 11am check out, no cleaning required and no broken glass anywhere on the premises.
