10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed a wonderful four days at this property. It's a proper home with real soul. Lovely artwork on the walls and everything you could possibly need. Looks better in real life than in the photo's. The location was superb. Great to soak everything in from one of the balconies and just a short stroll to the beach for early morning swims. We parked the car and didn't use it again until we left. We walked into Christchurch one day, got the ferry across to Hengistbury Head for a big coastal walk and also walked along the beach to Highcliffe Castle another day. Beds were very comfortable and we had everything we needed. Amber was great and we'll definitely be back for another visit!"
