What guests are saying
We had a wonderful stay at Chesil Retreat, continuing our Jurassic Coast walking challenge this was an ideal location for us with frequent buses into Weymouth and Portland to get us to and from start and end points.
The accommodation was extremely clean and comfortable, nice hot shower and comfortable beds perfect after long days of costal walking in the sunshine. Just a couple of issues were the can opener didn’t work! And I think the remote for the tv needs new batteries! Thank you for a lovely stay ☺️ would highly recommend.
Thank you very much for the feedback, thank you also for letting us know about the remote and can opener,without guests telling us we don't always get the chance to put things right so we appreciate it. We wish you all the very best with your continuing SWCP challenge and would welcome you back in the future.
The accommodation was clean and comfortable.
Spacious as it has a conservatory. Near to chesil Beach for walks and delightful sunsets. The owners put a lot of effort into making arrival welcoming.
Thank you so much for your positive review, we are really pleased that you enjoyed your stay here. Thank you for your booking and it would be lovely to welcome you back one day.
Another wonderful year spent at Chesil Retreat!
As always Julie and Steve went out of their way to make you feel welcome and feel at home. Chesil Retreat is a perfect place to stay for your holiday in Weymouth, ideally located, with easy access to all areas. Whether that be by car, bus or even by foot, you couldn't ask for a more perfect location. The house is very well presented and maintained. Thank you again for another lovely time!!
It has been absolutely lovely to welcome you and your lovely family back for the 3rd year running. We are over the moon that you have had such a lovely time again. If Weymouth is on your list for holidays again in the future you know where we are, it would be an absolute pleasure to welcome you all back.
Hi stay LAST YEAR but this year we had to wash all the towels and bedding the very next day as they all smelted very musty and not pleasant.
DID NOT EXPECT TO DO THIS.Didn’t spoil our holiday .Also the cleaning staff were waiting next to our car at 9.15 asking if we had left the house and could we make sure we move our car by 10am .Yes we were going to move the car cause we were aware we had to be out by 10am
Mrs Archer, we are really sorry to receive your review. We always ask our guests to contact us directly if there are any problems, which would enable us to deal with them immediately. We have only recently changed to a new cleaning company, who as a result of your review we have contacted immediately.. Even though it was out of hours they responded straight away with a telephone call and gave a very different version of events, stating that they met with you around 0945 when you asked if you could use the car parking for a little bit longer to go to the beach, which they tell me they agreed to. Clearly the cleaning company needs to get in and carry out their work before the next guests arrive and we understand that too. It is clear that there has been a break down in communication and quality of service on this occasion,which we do not want repeated and can only apologise for the inconvenience, nonetheless we are pleased you had an otherwise wonderful holiday in our accomodation and look forward to welcoming you back again in 2027 With regards to the 'musty smelling' towels, they state in 5 years of trading they have never received a complaint of this nature (we actually use them for our personal linen too).
This was our second year at the property, we enjoyed staying there both times.
The accommodation was well equipped, very clean and comfortable, and was a good base for exploring Dorset. Good communication with the owner, and the welcome pack was appreciated by all of us. Would fully recommend staying at the property, we would stay there again when we go back to Dorset.
Thank you very much for your lovely review. It was lovely to welcome you back again. You had some amazing weather which always makes a difference. If you ever come back to Weymouth again you are more than welcome back to Chesil Retreat.
This is a great little place to station if you want to enjoy the many activities in and around Weymouth and the Dorset coast.
Perfect for people partaking in water sports. While some may be put off by being near busy roundabout that leads to Portland Isle, it didn’t bother us; the windows are double glazed and shuts out noise very well. The property is very well ventilated when windows are open and even in hot weather it was fairly cool indoors! You have a parking spot around the back and easily accessible (I also liked the shingled area around the parking spot so that we can easily unload our luggage. The property itself was immaculately clean; felt really clean in every way. The bedrooms are perfect for a small family; whilst the shower takes a while to get used to; there were no issues in anything else. Luckily the owner got in contact with me out of courtesy and they are lovely people. They also gave me another fan for the impending heatwave! You have everything you need at the property and a lot of thought has lovingly been put into making our stay as comfortable as possible. The only thing missing were dishwater tablets but I bought some down Road at Lidl which was perfectly located for us! I had a little issue with booking the property originally with booking.com but I then booked it directly through Sykes. I’m glad the owner checked in on us; as they helped resolve a couple issues for me in terms of booking…! All in all this place is really good value for money, and perfect for small families (there’s a small beach nearby for kids to paddle in too), and of course you have Chesil beach nearby and you can watch some amazing sunsets from Portland Isle down the road! I would definitely stay here again should the opportunity arise again int he future.
Thank you so much for the amazing feedback, we are really happy that you enjoyed your stay. It was lovely to meet you. We make every effort to ensure that Chesil Retreat feels like a home from home. We are so pleased that you appreciated the location and stunning surroundings as this is why we live in the location too. Thank you for booking with us and we hope to see you again soon.
I would highly recommend this property.
It is well equipped with everything needed for your self catering holiday and was very comfortable and spotlessly clean. The conservatory an added pluss. It's location is ideal as it offers a lovely walk along a disused railway which has been converted into a pedestrian and cycle track. Also being located on a main road gives good access to the local busses. All in all no quibbles. Thank you Julie
Thank you so much for your lovely review, we work really hard to make the house a home from home and it is lovely to see our guests recognising our efforts and also the stunning location that the house is in. We love living here too. We are over the moon that you all enjoyed your stay. It was lovely to meet you and we would love to welcome you back again soon.
I would never have booked this property if it had been clear from the description that it fronted onto a roundabout which is on a very busy main road.
The road is busy twenty four hours a day and extremely noisy. Despite double glazing it was noisy inside and if it had been hot the bedrooms would have been suffocating. Fans were provided but that would not have been acceptable to us. Secondly the situation of the property is extremely windy as it’s right by Portland Harbour. Otherwise the property is well equipped and comfortable.
Thank you for your feedback, we are glad that you enjoyed the outstanding facilities that we provide and the ‘home from home’ experience we aspire to achieve, many of our repeat guests love the fact that we are situated on the main thoroughfare, between Portland bill and Weymouth as highlighted in the information provided - the only road onto the Island of Portland, with Chesil beach and the Jurassic coastline only a few hundred metres away. Chesil beach faces the prevailing westerly winds and as such yes, we do get those prevailing winds, drawing in windsurfers and sailors from across the world. Luckily we have smallmouth beach only a few minutes away which is sheltered and perfect for those that choose to bathe in the local waters. We are sorry that the weather was not on your side on this occasion, but we would gladly welcome you back in the future to enjoy our beautiful location.
Very comfortable house with all amenities, couldn’t think of anything that wasn’t provided.
Very close to a small beach and great cycle path. Good rear access for sporting equipment. There is road noise at the front of the house but very peaceful at the back. Bus stop across the road for easy access to town. Would recommend.
Thank you very much for your great review. We are so pleased that you enjoyed your time here. Thank-you for booking with us, we would be very pleased to welcome you back at anytime.
Always a lovely stay easy access to beach and Weymouth via bus.
Accommodation was clean and comfortable.
Once again, thank you for booking with us for the 3rd year running. We are so pleased thar you have once again enjoyed your stay here at Chesil Retreat and thank you for the review. We hope to see you again in 2026
Overall the property was good and had everything we needed.
The location was not what we were expecting as it was by the roundabout on the only road onto Portland which resulted in constant traffic noise which had it been during the summer/ heatwave would have made it impossible to have the windows open. The shower was a little temperamental and kept going from ok to very hot, also the left side of the toaster didn't work. The person in the adjoining house was either drumming or doing work most days for at least 2 hours. It was good that there was a parking space but on occasion when we returned people had parked by the garage making it tight to get into the space,which is a shame. The property had everything we needed but we wouldn't return due to the issues with the road noise as that is something outside of the owners control.
Thank you for your review Mrs Crabtree. We are sorry to hear that you were disappointed with the location. it is made very clear on the website information and the map as to where we are located. We are just off the main Portland Road, but we are very fortunate to be walking distance to Smallmouth beach, the Rodwell Trail, Chesil Beach and the Southwest coast path with easy access into Weymouth and onto Portland which is what attracts our repeat guests each year. The shower is only 3mths old, we asked the guests about it who came in after you and they didn't report any problems with the shower or the toaster and we actually checked both ourselves upon changeover. We are however, sorry that you had problems with them. There was a new kitchen being fitted in the house on the other side of the walkway and so this may have been the noise you heard and once again we apologise although this was clearly beyond our control. We have never had an issue with the parking space before, so an apology again for this. We know all the residents and this is a very rare occurrence as they all have their own garages and parking spaces.
We had a lovely week at Chesil Retreat and although our weather could have been kinder we were warm and comfortable in our accommodation.
The house was immaculate and had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. We would not hesitate to recommend Chesil Retreat. Clive&Maureen Goff
Thank you very much for the lovely feedback. We are really pleased that you enjoyed your stay and would recommend us. It would be lovely to welcome you both back again. This review hasn't been published, if possible would you mind making it public if you are happy too please as it really helps for future bookings
Having stayed in many holiday cottages/houses over the years, we can honestly say that this is one of the very best!
! A real home from home. It’s is immaculate in every way, top quality equipment to use in the kitchen, pristine bedding, comfy beds and sofas and the list could go on and on……. The house is in a great location and even though it’s close to a road there was no noticeable traffic noise, there are bus stops close by and a few shops and takeaways of good quality. We would highly recommend this property and a big thank you to the owners.
We couldn't ask for a better review. Thank you so much, we really appreciate your feedback. We work very hard to make sure that the house is as perfect as it can be for each of our guests. We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay. We hope that you will come back again soon
A very clean, comfortable, well equipped house with all the mod cons to make it a lovely home from home.
We loved the little garden & conservatory & ended up sitting out in both a lot! Ideally situated just off the main road to Portland or Weymouth but only 195 steps (yes, I counted them
Thank you very much for the excellent feedback. We are both so pleased that you had a lovely stay. The weather helped enormously too. Thank you for booking with us and we hope that you may return some day. I am guessing you mean 195 steps to the beach
There is nothing negative we can say about Chesil Retreat.
This is our second year staying there and we enjoyed it again that much we booked for next summer before we left this year. Julie and Steve are both fantastic and are always on hand if anything is needed. It's the little things that go along way, for example the thoughtful welcome gifts left for us and our little ones. Thank you again for a wonderful stay.
It has again been an absolute pleasure to welcome your lovely family to Weymouth. We are over the moon that you are coming back again. I hope the children aren't asking to count the days down yet though or you will have a job on your hands. Thank you once again for your repeat bookings and we will see you in 2026
The cottage was beautiful could not fault nothing as we walked in the smell was really nice and welcoming.
Had a lovely week and will be returning thank you
Thank you very much for your kind review. You had some lovely weather thankfully. Thank you for your booking and we hope to see you return one day
Enjoyed our stay, very comfortable, well equipped, friendly and welcoming owners.
It was ideally situated for us to explore Dorset. We enjoyed it so much, we booked the cottage again for next year, we did that before we came home!
Thank you for the great feedback Mrs Pullan. It was lovely to meet you all. You were so lucky with the weather. Thank you so much for booking again with us, we will see you in 2026
We had a very comfortable and enjoyable week in Chesil Retreat.
It was spotlessly clean, thoughtfully furnished and equipped and the decor was attractive. The owners made us very welcome, and we found the location very convenient, with a bus stop just across the road for Weymouth and three minutes' walk away for Portland. Although we didn't use the nearby beach, we thought its very close proximity (2 minutes) would be a bonus for those with children.
What a lovely review, thank you so much for your support. It was lovely to meet you both and we are really pleased that your stay was enjoyable. We would most certainly welcome you back in the future if you visit Dorset again.
This is a very well appointed house, near to the beach.
only thing I would say if it is possible to provide bus timetables and perhaps where to get the bus, as we don’t all like to drive all the time.
Thank you very much for your review and feedback. We are really pleased that you enjoyed your stay. Information about which bus to take to which location is provided in our folder but i will add bus stop location details too, so thank you for highlighting this. Bus timetables are all online these days unfortunately so it's very hard to find paper copies for guests. We hope that you will return here again one day as you would be most welcome. Thank you for leaving the property so clean and tidy, we really appreciate it
Another excellent stay at Chesil Retreat.
A clean and comfortable house. Ideally located for water sports in the harbour. Many thanks.
It has been lovely to welcome you all back for a third year. Our location is ideal for anyone that loves the beach and sports of any kind but especially watersports. We hope to see you again very soon.
A most welcoming holiday property.
Clean,comfortable and well furnished. The kitchen is well stocked with china and cutlery. A lovely conservatory. Ideally situated for nice walks and also buses to either Weymouth or Portland.
Thank you so much Mrs Walker for your lovely review. We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay. We look forward to you visiting again in the future.
Excellent as advised to owners.
TV functons need attention. Kitchen hob may not be working properly. These are minor points.
Thank you for your feedback, the temporary issue causing the tv slowness was quickly resolved this morning, with a phonecall to the provider and an internet update. Having checked the hob, it is working perfectly. We were really pleased to receive your text message whilst here, stating - 'Our accommodation is excellent with everything we need ... 5*.' We were really happy to know that you appreciated the extra festive feel we had provided, with Christmas decorations and festive treats. We look forward to seeing you again very soon.
Have a wonderful time.
Welcome gift from Julie & Steve was such a lovely touch. House was excellent, beds Ultra comfy. All the facilities you could need. The area has so much to do, and the beach is such a short walk away.
Thank you so much for your lovely review and thank you for being one of our lovely return guests. We are pleased that you liked the extra bits in the welcome pack and we hope that you return again soon . Thank you, we really appreciate your support in booking with us.
Our thanks to Julie, we just loved your cosy and spotlessly clean town house, with everything you could want for a comfortable holiday.
Being only 2 minutes from the Small Mouth beach and the start of the Rodwell Trail, the position was ideal for a short evening stroll to take in the views of Portland and the beautiful coastline. We walked the Rodwell Trail into Weymouth several times, and recommend getting of the trail at Sandsfoot castle, to call at the cafe in the gardens, going down the steps onto Castle Cove, a lovely, quiet sandy bay, and then to continue round via Belle View Road to Brewers Quay and the harbour, or up through the park for lunch at Nothe Fort. Using the regular bus service to return to Wyke Regis was easy. If we visit Weymouth again, we will certainly consider staying at Cheslt Retreat.
Dear Mr Redfern, thank you so much for your wonderful review. We are over the moon that you both enjoyed your stay here. You clearly took advantage of the location. We love it too and we love it when our guests feel the same. I know the weather wasn't fantastic all week but that clearly didn't stop you exploring. We would be absolutely delighted to welcome both of you back here again.
We were very disappointed to find the holiday house in the middle of a large housing estate, this was by no means stated in your write up.
Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback, we are very pleased that you found the property clean, with good facilities and very comfortable as you have given us a 100% score for these 3 aspects. With regard to the accuracy of listing, the property as you are aware is within the immediate vicinity of the beach and Portland Harbour at the entrance to a small, bespoke estate called Harbour Point. Chesil Retreat isn't described as being in an isolated or secluded hideaway location. It's position is very clearly marked on the map provided within the ''write up'. Like many other 'holiday lets' in Coastal resorts it is located in a popular and convenient location and has the added advantage of its own dedicated private parking which many other coastal properties do not offer. We are sorry that you were dissatisfied with the positioning of the property, as you can see, the majority of our guests, many of whom are repeat guests are extremely happy to be so close to Chesil beach, Smallmouth Cove, The Rodwell Trail and other amenities as described.
Had a lovely stay at Chesil Retreat.
The house is beautifully decorated with a well-equipped kitchen perfect for both short and longer stays. The location is great, with a lovely little beach close by, it is a short drive into Weymouth centre or a peaceful walk following the coastal path. We walked in one morning and enjoyed a well deserved breakfast at the palm house. Guest information with places to eat and visit was very useful and the welcome card letting us know about the fireworks was a lovely personal touch. Look forward to staying again in the future!
Oh thank you so much for your lovely review. We are so pleased that you enjoyed yourselves and went exploring. The fireworks are always amazing, especially seeing them over the bay. Thank you again, we would love to welcome you back soon
Had a fantastic stay at Chesil Retreat and the owners went above and beyond which was hugely appreciated.
Was perfect for us being close to a lovely little beach with a great cafe/bar/restaurant within a short walk as well as good road access to visit places further afield or even jump on the bus to the town centre. The house was really clean and very well equipped with everything you may need. Thanks very much, we’ll certainly be back.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. It was an absolute pleasure having you all as guests. Thank you for looking after the place. We are so pleased that you all had a great time. We would definately love to welcome you all back again.
What can we say about Chesil Retreat, it was exactly that a lovely retreat.
There is nothing we can fault about this property. The entire house was cleaned to an exceptional standard prior to our arrival. The owner contacted us prior to arriving and managed to have the house ready an hour and a half early which was brilliant. She also left our 2 young children a colouring book, pencils and some sweets each, not to mention a welcome basket which was a lovely touch. The amenities in the house were perfect and everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The beach accessories also proved a hit with our children. The location of the property was ideal for access to Weymouth and also Portland. We would highly recommend this property for those looking for a clean, well kept home away from home. To put it another way if we decide to have a holiday in Dorset again, this will be the place we will stay.
Thank you so much for your absolutely fantastic review. Reading it last night, really made our day. We are so pleased that you had a lovely holiday. We are also really pleased to hear that if you holiday in Dorset again, then Chesil Retreat would be your choice. You and your family are most welcome back and we really hope to see you all soon.
This is our second visit the Reason we booked because we knew standards would be high bus service handy it not everyday you meet the owners mother very pleasant lady she was off for a swim x
Mr Herrmann, thank you so much for your lovely review. It has been a real pleasure to welcome you back. We try very hard to ensure that the property is immaculate for every guest we have and it clearly works as you returned for a second year. My Mum said she had met you all, I hope that I can meet you if you return again. You would all be very welcome. Thank you once again for booking with us and thank you again for the review. It makes it all worthwhile, knowing our guests have been happy here.
This compact property is situated on a roundabout on the only and extremely busy road to Portland / Portland Bill.
It is thus very noisy except for a few hours in the early morning, making it impossible to sleep with the windows open in the second bedroom. It also detracted from enjoyment of the outside space at the back iof the house.
Dear Ms Dugdale, we are really sorry to read your review. as it appears on the face of it, that you didn't enjoy your stay despite the very positive scores you have given us. Our understanding from your text message that you sent us was that you were "having a great time" and your summing up was "All in all a great success". Many of our previous guests have complimented us on the fact that the property is ideally located and as such affords easy access to the wonderful Jurassic coastline. Our property location is clearly marked on the map provided in the online information and over the last 3 years, traffic noise has never presented as an issue to our customers, many of whom return regularly, we hope that you do too. Kind Regards Julie and Steve
Comfortably furnished, clean house, relaxing decor with everything you need on a holiday break in an ideal location for exploring the area.
Very helpful host. Highly recommend.
Thank you both so very much for this fabulous feedback. It was so nice to meet you both and we are really pleased that you had a lovely time. Your Mum saying that she loved the decor and coming back to the house after a day out made my day as we work so hard to make it perfect for people. We would love to welcome you both back very soon
Brilliant property Very comfortable beds Spotlessly clean Good location, though traffic noise can be heard Our only negatives…and this is just constructive criticism… - not enough room in bathroom to hang 3 - 4 towels, to dry them - would be good to either move wardrobe or have an extension socket so socket is nearer to mirror in main bedroom - to facilitate leaving by 10:00 am on departure day & to ensure thorough hygienic cleaning of crockery etc used that morning, it would be useful if dishwasher could be loaded and left to clean on departure
Thank you for your kind feedback. We know you had a very restful sleep as you asked for the details of our beds which was lovely. Regarding drying of towels, we provide a washing line for when the weather is dry and an airer (in the cupboard) for the wet days which can be left in the conservatory while guests are out. We will have a think about the wardrobe and hairdryer situation as it's the first time anyone has ever raised it as an issue. Lots of our guests as they are leaving, fill the dishwasher and leave it on so all the items are cleaned so this would never be a problem. We really appreciate your score, we work really hard to ensure that Chesil Retreat is clean, tidy and a comfortable home from home. It would be lovely to welcome you back one day
Beautiful cottage, has everything you need, it’s comfortable perfectly located and you can see the amount of hard work that goes into maintaining the property, recommend for anyone.
Mrs Bonser, thank you so much for your fantastic review. We are so pleased that you had a lovely time and that you were happy with Chesil Retreat. It would be lovely to welcome you back soon
Lovely warm and comfortable house.
Kitchen has great appliances and has the required equipment to cook any dish. Really appreciated the treats left for us. Lovely conservatory but too cold to sit in at this time of year. Easy drive to Portland and 3km walk to Weymouth along a trail. Disappointed about no sea view.
Thank you for your feedback and we are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay, it was lovely to meet you. We have taken note of the conservatory issue and will see if we can address this. I note you were disappointed not to have a sea view and we are sorry that you were disappointed but I would like to highlight that we do not advertise having a sea view in our property description. We do have a sea glimpse from the main bedroom but have chosen not to mention this in the information because even though we are moments from the beach and harbour area other properties restrict the view.
Fantastic very clean & tidy property with great attention to detail (board games, books, dvd player etc).
All of the information about local places to visit along with restaurants & attractions are in handy well labelled files. The location of the property is equally fantastic as close to the beach, local amenities and some eateries. Weymouth centre is within a 20 min walk & the South West Coastal Path is on the doorstep. The property owner is very helpful too
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. You were lovely guests and we would be very glad to welcome you back again. Thank you for booking with us.
A beautiful house which was ideal for four people.
Well located for walks into Weymouth and Portland and on good bus routes. I would highly recommend this property.
Thank you so much for your feedback. We are really pleased that you enjoyed your stay. We hope that we can welcome you back again soon
Very nice property in a good location for walking, water sports, fishing, transport (busses), running and visiting nearby places on the south coast.
Would have liked a few more basic provisions in the kitchen such as tin foil, a small frying pan, and rinse aid plus salt for the dishwasher as we couldn't get it to operate. Hob a little tricky to use. Enjoyable stay despite the weather
Thank you for your feedback. We provide baking paper rather than tin foil as it is more eco friendly. We apologise if you found the appliances complicated to use, we put modern appliances in including the ceramic hob to provide a high end kitchen. Instructions for all appliances are contained within our information folder at the property. Thank you for choosing to book with us, we are pleased that you had a comfortable and enjoyable stay and we look forward to seeing you in the future.
We had a lovely week at Chesil Retreat, a lovely clean and tidy house, with all the facilities and only a stones throw from the beach, ideal for early morning dips.
In walking distance to Weymouth town and Portland. Highly recommended. I would love to stay again.
Thank you so much for the Great review, thank you for the card and chocs too, went down a treat. You and the family would be absolutely welcome to return again in the future. Thank you for booking with us
We felt very much at home.
The property is very well equipped with quality furniture, fittings and is tastefully decorated. Designated car parking space is big plus for us. The location is great only a few steps to the beach. We happened to met Julie & Steve the owners on arrival and were made to feel very welcome. We have already booked again for next year so what more can we say!
It was lovely to meet you both, we are really pleased that you had a lovely time and we are over the moon that you are returning next year. We look forward to welcoming you back and thank you so much. We really appreciate you booking with us.
Another great week at Chesil retreat.
Excellent location. Clean and comfortable with everything you need and more. We enjoyed the welcome gift, thank you. Would highly recommend and we will return.
We are so pleased that you came back again this year, it is lovely to know that you and your family enjoy it here and you are all most welcome back anytime. Thank you
We had a lovely stay at Chesil Retreat cottage and was real home from home comfort.

A true home from home property, well equipped, lovely furnishings and in a fantastic location.
Thank you very much for your lovely, positive feedback. We try very hard to maintain the property so it is perfect for each of our guests. We hope that you return to visit us again one day
We had a fab time at Chesil Retreat.
Jools was so helpful with places to eat and places to visit. The house is lovely with everything you need. Perfectly clean and everything you could want. Loved using the conservatory on a rather wet bank holiday Monday. Minutes walk from the sea front with seats to just sit and watch the world go by and in the other direction there’s a small sandy area where kiddies and use the buckets and spades left in the box in the garden. Would definitely recommend the house again, in fact we have already and will return really soon.
Thank you for the amazing review, it was lovely to chat with you even though it wasn't in person. We are so glad that you loved staying at Chesil Retreat and we would be over the moon to welcome you back.
The property was very well maintained and comfortable.
The kitchen equipment provided was very good. Would happily recommend this property to anyone.
Thank you for your lovely feedback, especially the note you left. We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay and we would welcome you back at anytime
Thank you for such a great holiday, the property was well kept,very clean and cosy.
The goodie basket and milk were a super surprise,thank you.
We are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Chesil Retreat and thank you very much for your kind feedback, we hope to see you again soon. Kind Regards Steve and Julie
