  Where to start.

  .... This house is stunning. With the amazing warm pool and surplus of pool toys provided gave my children hours of fun as the weather was not great when we came. To the games room, separate from the main house, meaning noise from the children was never a problem. Everything was thought of down to the hair dryers in the room, the extra towels, the linen, the speakers, books, toys, games, Wifi. The list goes on and on! The owner was very attentive as we had a small issue with a loose tap in the bath, even bringing a bottle of Prosecco for our "trouble" even though it was no trouble at all! The location is perfect for visiting some beautiful beaches and villages, we were gutted we did not get to see everything as there was so much to do. The house is more of a home from home than my own home! it is by far the best UK holiday we have ever had and with 8 of us staying in one house, not getting on each others nerves is no easy feat, but with so much to do we managed just fine. We cannot wait to come back and cannot recommend this house enough with its impeccable service. One minuscule improvement would be, in the vast array of utensils, pots, pans and crockery... a large mixing bowl would be a welcome addition. We really had to dig deep to find that fault, we are British after all and complaining is our specialty! :)

  Warm spacious accommodation exactly as described in the brochure.

  There were ten of us staying for a family birthday in February, the four children (ages ranging from 5 to 13), had plenty to occupy them and the adults had plenty of space to get away from them if necessary! The property was more spacious than expected, very warm and well equipped with two fridge/freezers and two ovens and two small microwaves. There was a 'Dorset Happy Hamper' and milk in the fridge on our arrival which was a welcome surprise. All bedrooms had the same corner shower which worked well for us all but some people may find the space a bit tight. However the family bathroom was very spacious. The triple bedroom and one of the doubles are above the swimming pool and there was a slight hum from the boiler noticeable in both bedrooms. Although this did not disturb us, light sleepers may want to sleep in one of the other bedrooms. The property is set back from the main road with no noticeable traffic noise and there was ample parking for our four vehicles. It is a short stroll from the coastal path and a nice circular walk inland to see the chalk carving on the hill. None of our group wanted to leave and we had to drag the children out of the swimming pool on the morning we departed. A great holiday in a great property - thank you.

  Had a lovely week.

  Photos accurate although there isn’t a picture showing the view out the front which is end of a cul de sac. Never any issue with parking so wasn’t a problem just not as pretty an outlook as the back. Downstairs is spacious. Upstairs bedrooms spacious, showers all small. Pool a welcome addition ( room warm water fresh ) Fans would be a great addition we took some and still bought some it was very warm upstairs specially in this heat. I do agree with a previous review that the outside seating could be improved. Ok for eating but uncomfortable for chilling. Not necessarily a new patio area I would have been more than happy to have sat on a comfortable chair on the lawn and moved it around following the sun. And yes it’s shady but can always find some sun. All in all a lovely week away with the family. Would I book again probably not. We found it a little isolated from shops and the sea. Had to driving to most places but that’s not a criticism of the property just our personal choice for our next booking. Folders for appliances and where to visit are there to read although the where and what to do would have been great downloadable as a pdf maybe to read before going. Thanks

  Baytree Lodge was the perfect location to spend a lovely family holiday celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary and our first 2 week holiday since our honeymoon.

  The Lodge itself was excellent. All of us said if we won the lottery it would be the ideal place to buy. Having been a visitor to Weymouth pretty much every year for over 40 years in all sorts of accommodation this was by far the best and we have staying in some lovely places along the way. As a stroke survivor, the pool enabled me to do my hydro-physio (albeit slightly adapted) helping keep me mobile. Although we were all adults staying the pool would be excellent for families with younger children too. We were very lucky with the weather so were out pretty much every day enjoying the local sights. However on the couple of days we had as rest days, we still had plenty to occupy us in the property from the pool to games room so no-one was bored. Although it seems expensive for a 'uk' holiday, when you factor in 1) no hassle with airports. 2) easy to get to. 3) fascilities at the property and locally. 4) cost split down to no of people it can accommodate. It acutally is more than worth the cost. All in all, an excellent holiday location and can't recommend it highly enough...

  Good lounge ,kitchen and dining area with plenty of crockery etc and fridge/freezer ,washing machine/dryer space.

  Pool and area was good. Pool table missing balls for a proper game. Tv in games room was not on and after calling service was told it has a switch which we were unable to find without that help. 2 of the ensuite had flashing mirror lights which where not considering stay. 1 ensuite shower water was tepid never hot but as we didn't need 5bedrooms one person used the other room during the stay and was not reported. All floors upstairs need sound proofing or screwing down as they are so noisy !! Outside area needs some comfortable seating to enjoy drinks etc. Outside chairs very uncomfortable and in shade alof of the time, perhaps another level seating area at the top of the garden (near gamesroom) would be nice to catch later sun. No sun loungers probably because garden mostly in shade. Garden slopes too much to enjoy evening sun,as you can't put the table and chairs out there to enjoy,we ended up going around the side of the house where the cars were parked which was not ideal. Garden grass full of weeds and daisies not maintained needs TLC.
