“Perfect location and facilities.”

Owner met on arrival otherwise I was left on my own and not disturbed. I’d certainly return to enjoy the peace and quiet

“I AM PARTIALLY DISABLED AND I COULD NOT SAFELY GET IN AND OUT OFTHE VERY SMALL SHOWER SO ENDED UP HAVING A STRIP WASH INSTEAD.”

FLIES WERE ALSO A PROBLEM INDOORS. DONT FORGET TO TAKE YOUR TOILET ROLLS AS NOT MENTIONED ON THE LIST AND I HAD TOASK FOR THEM. DONT EXPECT A WELCOME PACK EITHER AS WE WERENT GIVEN A NYTHING EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE THEIR OWN COWS,! N

We would like to point out that you can see from the photos, plus the property description that the lodge is not suitable for a disabled person, the shower is a standard size but if you are disabled I can see that it could be a problem. Flies, theres not alot you can do about that, its summer and you get flies in the countryside and it is a particular problem this year, but we will provide fly spray as this problem has now been pointed out. With regard to toilet rolls, we do provide them, unfortunately it was an oversight on our part, but as soon as Mrs Gore asked for some they were provided straight away plus most of our guests bring their own.(we have now changed our policy so that guests are informed to bring their own, to limit contact between us and our guests) Finally, welcome packs, we have always provided welcome packs to our guests in the past, but now with the worry of Covid-19 we do not put anything apart from the necessary items in the Lodge.

“The photos don’t do it any justice.”

The lodge is beautiful, much bigger than expected. It’s very quiet which is good when you want to relax and so much to do around and all within easy travel distance via car. I would recommend this lodge to anyone. We will be back!

“Whitey Top lodge was just great!”

everything there you could need, lovely countryside views, so peaceful, and just great! Peter & Julie met us when we arrived early and were very welcoming. Many thanks also for the eggs and milk too. We went out and about exploring Dorset, such a lovely county for that. So many pheasants everywhere, and also saw a young deer at dusk one evening! The binoculars were very useful.

“The lodge was very isolated which was not reflected in your literature.”

There was only 3 wine glasses for 4 adults and a shortage of cutlery

Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry that you had issues during your stay. We feel the photographs on the advert accurately show the properties location. There was a breakage in the property which a guest had replaced a wine glass which does not fit with the other glasses, so this is kept on the shelf below. There is also 6 sets of cutlery in the property. If you had any problems with your stay we are available to rectify any issues. Owner relations

“Lovely lodge in a beautiful location.”

Has everything you need for a peaceful holiday. Plenty of places to visit and lots of local walks on your doorstep. Owners were nearby and could not have been more helpful. All in all we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. We will definitely be going back.

“Wonderfully peaceful”

The accommodation was well presented and included all the essentials, plus a few more things like binoculars, robes and slippers. We really enjoyed sitting outside in the evenings just enjoying the tranquility. If you want a peaceful holiday, this is for you. We also loved watching the wildlife through the binoculars provided. There are walks on the doorstep, although with a young child we preferred to travel to tourist attractions. There are many within easy driving distance, including Monkey World and the Heavy Horse Centre near Verwood. Our hosts were brilliant and let us stay beyond 10am on our departure day as the accommodation wasn't booked out again that afternoon. All in all, a really enjoyable, tranquil break at Whitey Top Lodge.

Mrs Pilatowski February 2019

“Fabulous setting and great lodge- Julie and Peter are most welcoming and very attentive to any needs.”

We were spoiled with the weather so had a fab walk on our doorstep with superb views, would be great for a picnic :) we will definitely be returning as our 7 year old is desperate to go back ASAP! Very relaxing and tranquil weekend away from the normality of a busy life. Thank you

“Perfect, peaceful weekend”

This place is amazing. The lodge decor is fab, really up-to-date and wonderfully clean. Owners ask if shoes can be removed on carpeted areas for which they provide slippers and as an extra,robes. Lazying in the hot tub whilst admiring the stunning scenery was perfect. There are binoculars and telescope which we used, great for watching the birds and star gazing at night. On arrival Peter came and welcomed us, we took advantage of his offer to go and watch his cows being milked! If you're looking for peace and quiet in a superb setting, this is the place to go. Loved every minute. Will definitely return.
Miss Strange October 2018

“We had an absolutely fantastic time at the lodge.”

It's such a beautiful place, like home from home and incredibly well equipt. The location is incredible! so peaceful and quite. If your like us and want as much privacy as possible, this is definitely somewhere you need to visit! The hot tub is a amazing added bonus. The owners Juile and Peter are absolutely lovely, so helpful and accommodating. We even got the chance to watch the cows being milked! This literally made the trip for us, our 4 year old son loved it! We were incredibly grateful for the opportunity to get up close and learn about the process.

“Best holiday I've had in years nice place so quiet lovely area”

“quiet comfort”

We very much enjoyed our stay at Whitey Top Lodge. The lodge is very comfortable and clean, with everything you need and more! The owners Julie and Peter are very friendly and helpful. Apart from the crows (which are just part of the country-feel) it was very quiet, which we love. The only reason why we won't be going back there is the fact that another lodge will be built next to this one and we are very fond of our privacy. For anyone who doesn't mind that or even likes to have neighbours, this is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy your vacation. We wish Julie and Peter all the best!

“Easter break”

Well presented lodge just like the pictures shown. Welcomed by both owners upon arrival and departure which was a lovely gesture. Wasnt expecting all the little things thought of...i.e: tea, coffee, sugar, milk and even some bicis, also complimentary toiletries in both bathrooms.... dont drink but also 2 bottles of alcohol in the fridge. Even had washing powder and as we had an 18month old definitely came into use! We had a lovely time here and due to a family emergency couldnt make it on the friday booked and the owners were really understanding and allowed us to stay an extra day and arrive a day later at no extra cost! Hot tub was amazing...older 2 children enjoyed it however we only managed a couple of times due to our little one. Lovely weather during our stay...managed to go out and take the kids out..lovely views and walks. On the negative side we think this may be more suited for adults or families with older children not toddlers! If your looking for peace, quiet and a relaxed break this is definitely the place to be! Thankyou Mr & Mrs White.
