The Old Dairy

Beautifully decorated barn with great connections to the rest of Dorset. We visited as a family of 3 with a 6yr old. Lovely surroundings with the interesting Knowlton Church and earthworks just a short walk. Outside space is really nice in the morning or evening to watch the swallows or the sunset. The barn is on a fast road as others have said. You can hear it if you listen for it, but this didn't bother us. If you are a light sleeper and are easily woken by the sun, take an eye mask as one of the bedrooms gets very bright early, the other stays dark. We found getting around really simple. I wasn't sure what to expect in terms of small country roads but every direction we chose to go in was easily accesible on main roads. We visited Lulworth cove and Durdle door, Kingston Lacy etc. Supermarkets a few miles away. We left feeling that there was much more we would have liked to see. ...

Everything about The Old Dairy exceeded our expectations. This is a beautiful property that is obviously very well looked after by the owners and it’s so comfortable and cosy that it’s makes an excellent holiday destination all year round. There is plenty to do close by for children and there are also some lovely forest walks and local pubs serving good food, so everyone is happy. We hope to be back again for another stay soon! ...

This was a first class property, well equipped with nothing spared to make it feel luxurious. The electronic gates made it very secure. It was very convenient to head out to various coastal locations. Our worry regarding the goats was unfounded as there was no noise or smells from them. Highly recommend....

Lovely cottage. As a family of 4, we were so happy with our stay. The pictures don’t do justice of just how spacious it is. I cannot recommend this cottage enough. We will definitely be returning. Congratulations to the owners on doing such a great job!...

Our recent stay at The Old Dairy was just lovely in every way, from the welcome G & T on arrival to the bath salts to enjoy in the roll top bath. The refurbishment of the The Barn is finished to a very high standard and quality throughout together with beautiful decor. Also, to wake up next to the goats was a delight , they are very quiet lovely creatures and it was lovely to watch them over the fence with morning coffee and in the evenings with a glass. We very much hope to return and would highly recommend this jewel of a find in a beautiful part of Dorest. The Rozario family ,Surrey...
