What can I say, but just perfect from start to finish. The room was just beautifully designed with a lovely seating area, and incredibly comfy bed. The breakfast, well that was just something else! I have never and probably will never have such an amazing breakfast. So much choice and cooked to perfection. Peter and Joey were lovely, so friendly and Peter is so knowledgeable and happily chatted with me during breakfast. As for location it was great and so close to Shell Beach which was so quiet and stunning and my favourite swim spot. Corfe Castle just up the road and lots of excellent hiking spots around. A very memorable couple of days and one of my favourites!
Wonderful cottage, nicely decorated with beautiful garden where we had our breakfast. Rooms very cozy and Peter was very friendly and helpful giving us recommendations. Strongly recommended.
Lovely accommodation and amazing breakfast in the beautiful garden! Thank you!
We had a lovely stay. Peter was extremely professional, and the place was wonderful. We were very impressed with the breakfast that was one of the best ones we ever had.Thank you!
Fantastic hosts, excellent location, quirky and cute lodge to stay for a night or two. Brilliant!
We stayed in the Lapland Lodge and had a wonderful time. Peter was excellent at communicating prior to our visit and so accommodating and friendly upon arrival. The lodge is excellent for a couple to stay in for the night, beautifully decorated and so charming. Very well equipped with what you need for a night’s stay. Parking was a huge bonus. Lovely breakfast in the morning too, thank you Peter! A real hidden gem near Swanage. We would love to return! Thank you so much.
Fantastic and very welcoming host. The Yurt was incredible and well decorated and styled. A really rustic and relaxing atmosphere to it. Peter's breakfast - can't beat it. The Hospitality was incredible.
Peter was the perfect host. he went the extra mile to make our stay memorable, from providing fresh milk for our afternoon tea to supplying a sumptuous breakfast on the garden lawn each morning.
Genuinely one of the best experiences I've had through AirBnB. Fun and quirky place to stay in a great location. Peter is an excellent host, his experience in hospitality really shines, helpful, friendly and an amazing breakfast spread.
Amazing stay, hosted by the fantastic Peter. We were made to feel like royalty. Super flexible and responsive host. Amazing breakfast and all round great hospitality. Would love to stay again.
Clean and comfortable place with an amazing, large and beautiful garden. It was lovely to eat breakfast served by Peter, outside in the garden. The house was also 10 minutes’ walk from a station for the steam railway to Swanage and Corfe. Peter gave lots of useful recommendations of places to visit too. Would come again!
Thank you for being the most welcoming host I’ve ever met. We loved staying at your Lapland cottage. It’s so cosy and cute. Your breakfasts are amazing- you really do go above and beyond. Your garden is gorgeous and it’s so kind of you to share it with us. We will certainly be back.
