Not dog friendly .

Reply from Classic Cottages

We're sorry that The Guardhouse was not as dog friendly as you were expecting. We do ask that dogs are not allowed upstairs or on the furniture at any of our properties. We would also unfortunately never be able to claim that any of our property's gardens are completely escape proof. You can see more details in the booking conditions or on our website and if you have any specific requirements in the future, please don't hesitate to get in touch and we'd be delighted to help.

Very clean, comfortable and cosy with woodburning stove. Kitchen had everything we needed and amazing to have the beach on our doorstep for walks with our dog.

September 2019

Not really suitable in the winter, quite damp, despite central heating. Some kitchen equipment needs replacing.

A bag of logs would have been nice.

Reply from Classic Cottages

Thanks for your comments - we're really sorry that you felt the property was a little damp on this occasion. We've certainly had our fair share of wet weather recently which can add to any damp feeling but we'll certainly forward your feedback to the owner for their attention along with your thoughts on some of the equipment. The first basket of firewood should have been available for you so we're sorry if this wasn't the case - we'll pass this to the housekeeper as well - thanks for letting us know.

Fabulous location, views and added bonus of great pub metres away.

August 2019

A stunning location. Not the best value for money given that some equipment really needed replacing.

Thanks so much for your review of The Guardhouse. We're really pleased that you liked the location with those stunning views. We're sorry that you felt some equipment needed replacing and we'll certainly ask the owners to have a look. Alison, Customer Support

Fabulous location for local walks and a good base for exploring the Jurassic coast. Comfortable accommodation. We all enjoyed being so near the sea and the feel of being in the countryside. Shop and pub being so close were very convenient.

June 2019

Stunning location - second to none . Little more care required in general upkeep of what should be an exceptional holiday home. Immediate response when we shared our concerns with Classic Cottages so hopefully moving forward issues can be addressed and this amazing house can live up to it’s 5 * potential.

The cottage is expensive for a week and perhaps the cost of logs for the wood burner should be included

Reply from Classic Cottages

We're sorry that you felt the cottage was expensive. We do carefully consider the pricing of all of our cottages for every week of the year to reflect changes in season and various other factors. We do feel that The Guardhouse is fairly priced but we'll certainly forward your comments to the owners for their consideration along with your thoughts on complimentary logs.
