For a group of us walking the coast path every day for a week (using 2 cars and some buses) the house and its location were great choices. Some modernising wouldnt go a miss but otherwise spacious and comfortable.

A fantastic location and the house was big enough for our family of six adults, one child and a dog. The property itself was adequate but could certainly do with an upgrade particularly in the kitchen/utility. However, we did have a lovely week and may return sometime in the future.

Lovely large house plenty of room and full of character,super location.Garden is big and is enclosed to a degree if you take a dog be aware that our labrador and cocker spaniel escaped under the gate have suggested the gates be made more secured. A few tatty bits inside in need of attention but was a super week there.

Beautiful location. Very peaceful. The local cafe is great and very friendly. Dog friendly too! The house is comfortable and plenty of outdoor space. The beach is very close but not very easy to get to for anyone who is frail or has a walking disability. I feel the property could do with a general deep clean though. Despite this we had a really lovRead moreely time. Very relaxing and I would visit again. Hide

Superb location and proximity to an almost empty beach in peaceful Ringstead. Huge house with everything you need and a great dining/living room with views of the sea leading on to a patio with seating area for food and tea outside. The house has all the basic facilities you need. Osmington pub is a beautiful cliff side 25 minute walk. Other placesRead more to explore on foot include local woods in the direction of Upton and White Nothe cliff walk. So much more to explore in Dorset. Didn't want to leave! Hide
