Vacation rentals with lake access in Dorset

Nice place to stay, rural area, lovely views. The place is spacious, well equipped. Nice fitness area. There’s a parking space close to the entrance and also electric charging available.

We had a fantastic 2 night stay at the chapel. Lovely interiors, comfy beds and very peaceful surroundings. The beach is only a short drive and Stephanie recommended some delicious food options- The parlour for Italian in the coolest setting and sundorbon authentic Indian who delivered to the door…would highly recommend both! Overall a little gem!

We stayed at Sam’s place to celebrate my husbands birthday. From the start Sam was responsive, friendly, answered questions and gave some fab advice. When I made a request she did everything she could to make it happen. The caravan itself is in a lovely peaceful part of the park with easy walking distance to the woods for the dog to have a run and also to the beach where we wandered to the pub and then back for an ice cream. Sam clearly explained how everything worked, where everything was & what she was doing to make things perfect for her guests. Her guide for things to do was really helpful so our days were filled and never dull. I would call this caravan a proper family home, it does everything it’s suppose to so you can just relax and enjoy your holiday. When I had some sad family news, Sam went out of her way to make sure we were ok and that we didn’t need to rush out the caravan on check out, so if you want a proper family home from home that does what it says - visit here! 🩷

John’s Barn is a stunning light and spacious holiday home , beautifully designed and furnished , and set in a peaceful , green countryside setting with acres of woodland to explore . We loved the private and pretty garden , and the walk to the lake to feed the fish . Our grandchildren loved the trampoline and play area , and the tree swing in the garden . Bobbie is a warm and friendly host who respected our privacy - we really enjoyed meeting her . We enjoyed visiting Romsey, and loved exploring the New Forest and all it has to offer . We will be returning - something we rarely do !

Wonderful house in a terrific, peaceful location. The house and gardens are idyllic, and we loved spending time in the hedged gardens in the evening sun after playing tennis. The house is within easy access of all the best landmarks of the New Forest and also bang on the coast. The interior of the house has great style and charm and is a great place to spend time in.

A beautiful house in an amazing location - we walked the coast path from Stoke Fleming to Brixham, passing through Dartmouth. A short walk down to Blackpool sands too, huge beach with great facilities for eating and watersports. Green Dragon pub is lively and welcoming and village shop is also great. Bus stop very near the house - everything you need for a great stay by the sea! The house is lovely and peaceful and well looked after. We had a fabulous time!

We had a very lovely stay. Nicola provided a high chair and travel cot to accommodate for our 10 month old baby. The hot tub was lovely and private and the views were stunning.

A lovely, relaxing couple of nights stay. The Coach House has all you need, is warm and cosy and very comfortable. The beds are super comfy and the duvets really warm and cosy. The garden is very private and a lovely feature, and for anyone staying in warmer weather has everything you need to spend plenty of time outdoors. If you're looking to keep your steps up, try a walk round the lakes, lots of bird life, very interesting. The lighting system took a bit of getting used to but is very ambiant and well thought out. The kitchen has plenty of space so you can cook and chat. It would have been good if the oven had worked but we were told about this beforehand and provided with an airfryer so could work around this quite easily. The host was always quick to respond, kept in touch and made our stay very easy. I would recommend The Coach House for a very relaxing and comfortable stay. All the quirky little touches make The Coach House quite unique and we would definately return.

Guy’s description that no photographs can do justice to the setting of Bossington Hall is absolutely accurate; the property sits in an elevated position overlooking Porlock Vale and the sea and the views are stunning. The self-catering apartment was very well appointed, well-equipped and spacious and was a great base from which to explore the this lovely corner of North Somerset. Being on the ground floor, it has the benefit of its own enclosed terrace (good with dog) and cool nights, as we visited during g a mini-heatwave! Guy was a very friendly and welcoming host, full of useful tips and provided plenty of local info, plus personal recommendations for local restaurants etc. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would be keen to return and maybe try the B&B rooms next time as the breakfast smelt delicious!

Lovely, cosy and peaceful stay at the annex. Looking forward to visiting again.

Excellent accommodation, very clean, well equipped, perfect location, short walk to amenities & seafront. Lots of lovely homely touches. Very good communication with owner who was super helpful. Didn’t find key box straight away, but that was user error as hidden in plain sight 🤣. Thank you would highly recommend and would most definitely go back.

Had a wonderful stay, thank you for sharing your wonderful accommodation.

Sheralee's apartment is in an absolutely perfect location for enjoying a holiday in Sandbanks. The views are so beautiful and peaceful of the harbour from the balcony, bedroom window and living room window. There was everything we needed in the Airbnb and we loved eating dinner on the balcony as well as at the dining table in the living room. Would highly recommend staying here and we would love to come back another time. So lovely that there is such easy access to both the harbour side (we did kayaking there) and the beach side through the Jazz Café entrance to the beach. Also, having the Tesco Express as part of the same building was really handy to buy food from!

Really nice top floor flat with great views of the harbour. Glenn was a top host and really responsive providing clear instructions. Would highly recommend!

Geoff is a great host, very helpful and responsive. The flat is very cozy, clean, has comfortable beds and a beautiful view. Loved our stay.

We had a lovely stay, very quiet and private. The onsite shop was great for picking up some small bits we forgot!

Janey's place was in a lovely, secluded corner of Compton Abbas that provided a true sense of peace and privacy in stunning surroundings, whilst remaining just a short car journey away from town. Our lovely hostess was extremely charming and her Airbnb was full of thoughtful, personal touches throughout the property that made us feel right at home. We could not recommend Janey enough and encourage anyone to consider staying at her place. It's truly one in a million with a beautiful boat accessible lake right on the doorstep and acres of land to explore. Steve & Anna

This is our second stay at Lakeside Barn and again it lived up to our expectations. Such a beautiful place with peaceful surroundings. Anna and George are the perfect hosts and I would have no hesitation in recommending the barn.

Lyn’s place is accurately described and photographed on the Airbnb site - but seeing is believing. Having just spent 5 wonderfully enjoyable days and nights at Pussy Mouse Rew, I can say without any thought or hesitation, that it is a true 5 Star experience. In my humble opinion, it is faultless, a sublime mix of understated luxury on what amounts to 6 stunning acres of (a very private) nature reserve, flora and fauna in abundance.

A lovely cottage perfect for a countryside getaway. We were given really clear instructions for how to get to the property. When we arrived, there was fresh bread, butter, milk and jam left for us. All of the furniture was incredibly comfortable and clean. A really lovely stay 😊

Absolutely stunning place. Was sad to leave. If I’m in the area again I will be booking this beautiful place. Thanks so much pippa x

This is a stunning, very old property in the most beautiful location. We were grateful for the communication with Sally before and during our stay. There is so much to do both inside and outside the house. Wish we had more time to explore the area.

We had a lovely stay over bank holiday. The home was a perfect size for us as a couple with a young baby. Clare made us very comfortable & there are lots of personal touches & tips including local walks which we enjoyed. Very peaceful location. The local pub is a short drive away. The patio was lovely in the sunshine 🌞

Great place to stay and unwind. Super friendly hosts and plenty of animals and pets to play with. Nice Walks nearby and local cafe highly recommended. Lovely clean place with great kitchen facilities. Would stay again! Thanks.
