Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Dorset

Lovely place with great amenities. Ideal for family gatherings and our 2 dogs especially were very happy with the outside space. It is easy to drive into Poole which has a good shopping area and lovely quayside. There were lots of good walking areas nearby and a choice of local park runs! There was a good space for the dogs to sleep off the utility room. And a well equipped games room in a former garage though this was rather cold at this time of year. I dare say some form of heating would be provided if requested. But we spent most time outside enjoying the garden space.

We had a lovely few days at Jo’s place ! Great location to explore Jurassic coast and Dorset from - only 40-45min away. Jo was a great host, friendly, helpful and quick to respond. Comfortable beds, great bed lined, comfortable sofas and lovely fire place with wood supplied. Great space for a family of four with everything you need - thank you, Jo + family !

We, 5 adults and 4 teenagers, spent a very enjoyable Easter here. The directions in the comprehensive welcome message were good and the house was clean and ready for us. The nice warm indoor pool, the hot tub and the pool table were great and were heavily used. Kitchen is well equipped – we fed well! The weather was unfortunately not quite ready for the outdoor gas BBQ area. The beach is within easy reach, as is the Smugglers where we spent an evening eating and drinking. The host responded quickly to a question, which was great. All together great. Bottom line – we would happily go there again.

This place covers all the bases for a great stay for a big family get together! Excellent communications, nice welcome and then all the things to keep three families from ages 3-16 entertained. Private pool great, Games Room great, Hot Tub was spot on and actually hot (unlike so many that aren't)! Sauna probably needs some renovation love. Bedrooms great, enough space. Devonshire Arms nice food, Halfway House nice beer and vibes. All the ingredients for a place to kick back and have some much needed family time. Highly recommend!

Just come back from Mistletoe Farm after celebrating a Hen weekend there. We all could not fault the hosts, they were incredible & always checking if we needed anything, so helpful throughout the whole stay. Mistletoe Farm is beautiful & so peaceful. Plenty to do within the property. We all especially loved the pool/hot tub & also the karaoke machine was a big hit. It really is the perfect place either for celebrating a special occasion or a family weekend. We all enjoyed our stay & said it is a place we would love to go back to. Thank you again to the amazing hosts. Would highly recommend this air b&b 😊

Hare cottage was beautiful and Lisa has thought of everything you will need for a relaxing holiday.The cabin is modern,fresh and lovely decor.We thoroughly enjoyed the amazing hot tub and watching the stars in a non light polluted area made it very special indeed.The children loved all the open space ,board games and of course the swinging chair on the decking to read was a bit hit too.Lisa is a great host and is always at the end of a message if you need anything.We would highly recommend the cabin and can't wait to return to see more of the area . Many Thanks Vicki

We had an amazing stay at Matthew’s house for my best friends hen do. The house was beautiful, great location and Matthew was very responsive. Would definitely recommend and return to this house!

Great house and as described. We did feel it was a shame that the garden was quite stark with no plants or greenery

Located close to where we have family living which was ideal for us. Lovely and quiet and has a saved parking space for the vehicle Our dog was welcomed to the property. It’s close to shops and takeaway outlets, although the kitchen is perfectly satisfactory for cooking in. Lots of lovely touches in the property such as provision of tea, coffee, milk and sugar as well as shampoo, soap shower gel in the bathroom. Very friendly hosts who were available if required.

Had a 2 night stay whilst in the area for work. Had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The host was very friendly and sent lots of useful information prior to check in. Would happily stay again.

Had a lovely weekend. It was like home away from home. Everything that we needed was supplied. Handy to visit where we wanted to go. Lovely and clean ☺️

The Bay House apartment was a great place for a short break. The place was clean, bright and airy with amazing views. It was lovely to sit and watch the boats and fishermen in the harbour. The bed was extremely comfortable with pristine linens. The bathroom was stocked with shower gels and shampoos. Westbay itself is a delightful little harbour town with plenty to see and do on a sunny day. Kiosks line the harbour selling ice creams, fish and chips etc. All in all I would recommend the apartment and the location.

Great flat close to the town centre, yet nice and quiet. Good value, well kitted out, with plenty to do if it's raining. Very comfortable bed. Host is super helpful and flexible, arranging for the cleaner to let us in at our chosen check-in time. Recommend. 👍

This is such a fantastic place to stay. Richard goes above and beyond to ensure his guests feel welcome and are comfortable. The apartment was spotlessly clean and has everything needed for our visit. The location of the accommodation is perfect for access to the beach, local shops and the bus route to the surrounding areas.

The west wing is in a beautiful valley, near lots of walks, beaches and places to eat. The owner gave us a really warm welcome and set us up with everything we needed for our one year old. The place itself is beautiful and very comfortable. Would highly recommend.

It was our second visit to Bentley Rise and we loved it as much as the first. The apartment is gorgeous and set in the most glorious gardens which are an inspiration. We enjoyed the river walk into town and two happy evenings by the wood burner. We were celebrating our joint birthdays and we felt so welcomed and had the perfect stay. We left feeling invigorated and are looking forward to coming back! Thank you so much Samantha and John

James is a lovely person and his home is really magical and he gave us total privacy but was ready to help or advise on anything, it was a lovely experience and definitely going back the house is fantastic really special and huge I have never slept in such a huge house even the bathroom was lovely the house is really authentic and fabulous wild garden I loved the windows beautiful location really quiet

Local shops , and the beach within easy 5-10 minutes walk and buses same time away into Bournemouth Poole and Christchurch . A wonderful seven days

Enjoyed a memorable stay in Goretti’s peaceful and spacious home. The house is fully equipped and was extremely clean. We particularly enjoyed the beautiful garden and conservatory. Communication was seamless. Would definitely recommend this beautiful home. It was lovely to be greeted by the host with a bottle of Prosecco in the fridge.

We stayed here for my hen weekend. The house was perfect for all 14 of us. Plenty of room and great fun. I would highly recommend
