  As four friends visiting Dorset we were delighted with the peaceful location and the house.

  It was pristine and had 3 lovely bathrooms and only 2 minutes from the pub and a pleasant 10 minute walk to Lulworth Cove. Ideal! All was well until we needed to open bedroom windows. None of which would open so consequently we had an uncomfortable first night as it was so warm. Also the patio doors would not lock. The phone number given did not allow options for reporting an issue ( why not?) so I emailed the next morning.I was contacted half an hour later and the helpful property manager said he would visit the property which he did. Apparently,he contacted us during the day but neither my friend or I received a voice mail or message so on returning I emailed again as apart from the patio doors the other windows still would not open. The manager phoned and told me how to unhook “the safety catch” which worked so a comfortable night! On the last day after shutting the windows for security they would not open again so another hot and frustrating night as it was too late to email again.The windows that had keys would not open either. I.e. in the top bedroom and the twin room. I hope that this issue is solved for the next guests as it was just ridiculous. On another note, we met the lovely cleaner on the way out and she commented that we should have had a welcome pack?? Is that so as I am not aware we were asked to request one if required. 13.5 tog duvets are not suitable for the summer months and when stripping the beds we noticed there was only a sheet on top of the mattress in the 1st floor double room. Not very hygienic! Due to these issues I cannot give the property 5 stars that it really deserves.

  Fantastic venue, the property was just what needed, size, location as we were coming from different locations, families wanted to be together but also part of the larger family group.

  The Kitchen is really the hub of the house which suited us so well. All bedrooms and linen were clean and had everything you need. We would have liked to have had more control over the heating as at times it got cold has the heating was off from early afternoon through to early evening, we had two elderly with us, so they felt the cold more. We did contact the Housekeeper on the Saturday and she immediately turned up the heating for us from her App, it would just be nice to have more control yourself as the house was then again very hot overnight, its seems the timing needs a little adjustment. For one of the bedrooms upstairs you need to walk through another to get to the bathroom or to go downstairs, this could be an issue for friends staying. It wasn't particularly for us but we felt it should be mentioned in the property details. Otherwise a perfect long weekend for our family stay, thank you

  Had a wonderful stay at 2 Court Farm.

  Perfect location for the peace and quiet I was craving and the property was a good size. My 2 dogs thoroughly enjoyed the local walks, and the enclosed garden was great for them too…sadly I had to collect around 6 large diarrhoea stools from the back garden (left by previous occupants) to prevent my dogs running in it and bringing it into the house. I figured the double bed was because the room wouldn’t facilitate anything larger but the room was huge and the bed rather small. I think they could all do with replacing since the single bed my daughter slept in was very creaky. I also would have liked a larger more comfortable sofa arrangement to have been able to enjoy the log burner more…it was very small and hard. All in all we had a lovely break but some home comforts were missing for me.

  We rerally enjoyed the break at Waterston Cottage, directions and entry information all spot on.

  There was a lot a post / junk mail behind the door when we arived, not sure how long this had been there. Other than this th e property was loverly and clean, and all as per the listing, with fantaistic view over the field with lots of spring lamps. This is a great location less 5 mins walk to the local pub which was very welcoming, 10 minutes to local shop, 15 minutes to Lulworth cove. We could have done with some more specific heating control information albeit manage to sort out the ground floor heating, but could not get the upperfloors to work off the timed control, had to use the hold function.

  We enjoyed a wonderful week in this lovely cottage.

  It is clean, comfortable, and well equipped. The rooms are quite large, especially the bedroom. I've only marked it down on maintenance because some grout was missing between a couple of tiles on the bathroom floor. (Sorry, I forgot to mention it while we were there.) The wifi worked well. Parking is convenient, right by the door; and the owners' instructions for finding the property worked perfectly. It's a short walk to the bus stop, with buses to Corfe Castle and Wareham one way, and to Swanage and beyond the other way. We downloaded the morebus app, which was useful. Thank you for a lovely stay.
