The Beach Hut
This beach flat is just in the perfect location for exploring the beach, Rick steins and pig on the beach in studland (5 mins ferry ride). The number 50 bus takes you to all of these . Michelle was very friendly and met us on arrival and showed us around the flat . We would return x

Flat One The Beaches
We had a lovely stay at Nikki’s beautiful apartment.We couldn’t have asked for a better location. The apartment is very well equipped and beautiful decorated. Thank you for a lovely stay Nikki!

Swanage Sea View for Two
Had a great stay - clean, comfortable with great amenities and the perfect location for heading into town or coast path walks. Excellent communication with Sally.

3Bed Garden Apt. Clifftop, sleeps 8 with Hot Tub
The acommodation was wonderful, exactly what I was looking for and I am happy to have found it. The house was fully equiped, just felt like home. Beautiful, bright and very welcoming, at a short distance from the beach. The hot tube was the highligh for the chilly evening (sadly we messed up the water temperature a bit :D) Jemma is a great, allways responsive and helpful. I will totally book the place again for another getaway. Thank you!!!

Elegant Wing of a Country House - Bride Valley
I told my four-year-old we had been invited by 2 queens to stay in their castle—and what queens they were! Such a friendly reception and what a wonderfully whimsical place. The location is fabulous: you can’t see another property, just rolling hills of sheep (the friendliest photobombing sheep I’ve ever come across!), chickens, cows, horses… and the dogs are such a sweet, quiet presence too. Beds are luxurious and the whole house is super cosy with a fab little private garden. A real gem! Would definitely return.

Rowsley - sunny apartment with views in Lyme Regis
'Rowsley' is a fabulous apartment. It is very comfortable and is well kitted out with everything you need. The location is perfect, we left our little car parked and walked everywhere. We really enjoyed our time visiting Lyme Regis and meeting Sheena.

Beautiful character 2-bed flat, 500m to the beach
Craig's place was just as lovely as the images. Craig was proactive and accommodating too. All in all, I would rate it a 5-star experience and would come back again! One thing that stood out for me was that the supplies Craig had were what you would actually use at your own home. It's the small things that I tend to carry but did not need to bring - like my own handwash or toilet roll. Everything Craig stocked, was good quality. He even had 2 working fans in both the rooms. Loved the experience inside the house. The place was a walking distance from the beach, yet, close to the high street (but secluded enough). So, loved the experience outside the house too. I visited with my husband and elderly parents, so the staircase and the single beds were a little inconvenient for us, but honestly, the place is lovely for a young family.

The Ocean Suite, Ventnor Beach (6ft superking bed)
Great place to stay in a brilliant location. Would recommend!
House rentals with beach access

Stunning 2 bedroom house in the centre of town.
Ed is a great host, lovely little airbnb in Bridport. Would definitely recommend and will return in the future

Luxury@OceanView House Dorset close to Beach&Cafes
Loved staying at Helen’s Airbnb, it was so perfectly located to enjoy the beach, Bournemouth, the New Forest etc. The balconies overlooking the sea were such a treat and the bedrooms were all lovely! Very well equipped.

Beautiful Dorset getaway with stunning sea views.
We had a wonderful week at the cottage. The village is lovely and the cottage is so close to the Square and Compass pub. Very comfortable accommodation and the views are amazing. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Stylish Beach House moments from the beach
A beautiful place in a perfect location next to the beach in Lyme Regis. Tristan was a great host and we would couldn’t recommend highly enough.

Seafront coastal holiday home near New Forest
We are home after a Mon- Fri half term break at Admiral’s Watch, and we have had a wonderful time. Before we arrived we had clear directions from Nicky along with a really helpful list of recommendations for places to go with the kids. Getting to the property was easy and it was great to have a dedicated parking spot. The area is peaceful and completely beautiful. The small precinct of shops/ restaurants within the terrace was useful and didn’t intrude on our stay at all. The property itself is beautiful and just like the photos- the sea is right in front of the apartment making the views amazing. Nicky has styled the property beautifully and there was plenty of space for us as a family of four plus our dog. Activity wise I would recommend a trip to nearby Hurst Castle, and a meal at the Cliff House restaurant which was a short stroll away. Totally recommended, we had a great stay. Thank you Nicky and Ed.

Poole Harbour View,Top Location Opp Hot-tub /Sauna
Amazing place! Perfect location for a family holiday. The house has absolutely everything you need and more. We really enjoyed sea kayaking and paddle boarding with all Daves's kit. The sea is so close you can carry everything down to the shore. We really loved the hot tub and sauna and bbq area. The games room was a great space for the kids to hang out and play as well as the adults. We couldn't have wanted more. We'd wholeheartedly recommend this amazing house.

Bride Valley Studio, Jurassic coast
Beautiful, light, airy and comfortable home in a perfect location for us. Everything you need in the kitchen for cooking with. V comfy bed! It was lovely and peaceful but just a quick drive to Hive Beach/Burton Bradstock/Bridport . 5 min walk down the road to a lovely local farm shop and The Parlour restaurant for good food and cider made on the farm. Alison was very friendly and gave some good recommendations in the welcome pack.

Beautiful spacious home & garden
Thank you Kate, we really enjoyed our stay here. Your home is very spacious and comfortable with all the amenities we required. It was so impeccably clean, I was very impressed. We felt very relaxed and at home here. Your helpful guidance was incredibly useful and so were your recommendations for the local area. Thank you.
Condo rentals with beach access

Reduced! Nu-Vu, 2 bed Apartment, Seaview, Parking
Excellent host. Very responsive and well worth the price. I asked for an earlier checkin and they were more than happy to accommodate. There was scaffolding up around the building, but we were aware of this before and it didn't block the sea view. I would definitely recommend.

2 bed seafront apartment seconds from beach Dorset
Clean and well maintained. Fabulous location, right on the esplanade. Excellent mattresses. West Bay itself; we were worried about the caravan park and that this can generate constant nagging from the kids about sweets, arcades and plastic tat, but there was none of this. It’s a little harbour (good crabbing), a beach and coastal walks with a few ice cream and food options. This week the beach generated very strong waves that were not suitable for younger children, my 11 and 14 yr olds loved it. “Rise” restaurant was superb.

Luxurious Apartment in New Forest National Park
Very sweet little cottage, beautifully decorated with everything you would need inside of it. Great location, with a nice pub down the road. We would definitely stay here again and recommend for all. The only downside is that it is situated on a busy road so at night you can sometimes hear the cars, but we didn’t mind.

Stylish 1 bed apartment in westbourne w/ parking
I had a great stay in Rebecca’s flat. It’s clean and tidy and well stocked with all you could need for short and longer stays and with some lovely, complimentary goodies. The flat has its own dedicated parking space and the location offers easy access to local shops, cafes and restaurants and is within good access to the beach. Rebecca was flexible in amending my stay duration which I appreciated, thank you.

Panoramic Harbour views in historic apartment
Chris' apartment was a great find. We stayed for a month and booked after our previous arrangements were cancelled. we are delighted with the apartment and the location. The place was clean and bright, very comfortable and very well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. It was also beautifully decorated, with lovely touches, great guidebooks and some nice breakfast items for our first morning. Chris is a great host. His guidebook and instructions are invaluable - I would highly recommend anyone to take the time to read them before arriving. He has taken a lot of time and effort into putting the information together and it makes life so much easier and certainly adds to the enjoyment of your stay.

Fabulous Villa in Lyme Regis with Sea Views
Beautiful accommodation. But because we are 80 we felt a little isolated as we couldn’t manage to walk from the property, it would be better suited for younger fit guests

2 bed apartment overlooking harbour west bay
My mother absolutely loved the property. Fantastic location

Stunning Sea View Home 2 Minutes Walk to the Beach
We had a lovely holiday in this beautiful and very spacious apartment. Everything was spotlessly clean and worked well. Claire's communication was great - quick, clear and understanding. We love the West Cliff area of Bournemouth and highly recommend for families. The only downside was that it being on the second floor of a tall, old property - there were lots of steps up and down!
