    “We had a lovely stay at sunny croft, the property was very clean and comfortable with plenty of room for 5 of us and 1 dog, we made full use of the garden and loved the hot tub, the living area was very comfy and we loved cooking in the kitchen although would have been nice to have had a fifth chair at the table but we made it work.”

    We had a little issue with the front door lock but was told about that before we arrived however we feel that this may cause some problems for people that may have some issues with being able to grip properly also the lock in the bathroom we found to be quite difficult to unlock. Some of the sockets on the walls were quite loose and could do with a little attention. Just a little constructive feedback.... a broom to be able to sweep inside the property would be really handy, as you can imagine ...

Some of the sockets on the walls were quite loose and could do with a little attention. Just a little constructive feedback.... a broom to be able to sweep inside the property would be really handy, as you can imagine having 5 of us with a dog aswell it was quite difficult going around the place with a dustpan and brush. It would also be really lovely to have a few solar lights around the garden for the evening as it gets very dark and we found that we had to use a torch and some candles to be able to sit out in the evening. However we did have a lovely stay and would love to revisit. Thank you for our welcome pack with tea, coffee, milk and biscuits. Thank you again for a lovely stay and we do hope to revisit some time soon. Donna, James, Ann, Phil, Lou and Rocco.

About the location

DORCHESTER

Weymouth 7 miles.

A trip to Dorset is not complete without visiting the market town of Dorchester, with its Roman roads, museums and a wide selection of pubs and restaurants. Enjoy a scenic walk around Maiden Castle, the largest hillfort in England, or visit the County Museum which has a room devoted to Thomas Hardy, born just two miles away in Bockhampton. Just seven miles away are the glorious gently shelving beaches and picturesque harbour of Weymouth, and the rugged peninsula of Portland, linked to the mainland by Chesil Beach, part of the breathtaking World Heritage Coastline. In fact, you’ll find yourself so intoxicated by Dorset’s magic spell, you won’t want to return home at the end of your stay!
