"Property was finished to a very high standard and in a perfect location for exploring Dorset. The property water is supplied from a private natural spring - better quality water from the tap than most premium mineral water you buy in a glass bottle. Where else can you have a shower in pure spring water. We will be back for sure. You will not be disappointed with this property."
