Lovely location and plenty of space , it has potential!

We chose this property for the location near to a wedding. The view and property itself were lovely but there was a lot to be improved upon . Small things really ,to bring this place up to an acceptable standard. Between the windows in every room there were a lot of dead insects, cobwebs etc and they had been neglected for a long time. Damp on the kitchen wall with flaked paint on the work surfaces. The downstairs rooms were OK with the exception of the main sitting room which smelled very badly of damp/mildew. The main bedroom has a large upholstered headboard which had dust clumps along the top , the bedlinen was very shabby .Two tiny thin cheap towels per person was inadequate . Under the bed was fuzzy with dust and pretty grim. The main bathroom window was broken there was no seal on the shower so water leaked on the floor , a hopeless wooden bathmat was provided and it was not safe for the more elderly in our party. Some of the beds were very comfortable but in two rooms the beds were very very squeaky! The cheapest possible garden benches were plonked in the garden and in a property such as this there really should be something better ( again these benches are not suitable for older people) Sunloungers were promised but nowhere to be found. The main issue outside was the huge amount of broken glass, directly outside on the lawn and in the swing area. There were also a lot of cigarette ends strewn about the place. A bossy notice saying that guests would be charged extra for not cleaning the barbecue was fair enough but no cleaning brush or barbecue specific cleaning materials were anywhere to be found ... Another little thing which would be so easy to remedy was that the cheapest possible hand soap was provided in slightly grubby pump dispensers . We had a lovely stay in spite of these small issues but this should be a luxury holiday cottage and the only luxury was the view .

Magical location to see the New Year in with friends

10/10. Incredible location. Exceptional welcome basket on arrival. Only thing to note is spacing out showers if large numbers of guests are staying to give the immersion tank a break. We will be back soon!

Stunning Location!

I booked this property with a group of friends because of it's fabulous location. I already knew the area well and it did not disappoint! We took along a few paddles boards and enjoyed being able to get straight out onto the water in the early morning mist, sit around the fire pit in the evening and enjoy the local walks. The house itself is old and full of character with plenty of room for a large group.

Special family time

Our family had a wonderful stay at Ower Quay Cottage and rarely left the property during their stay. It's rare to find a house in such a beautiful location. Even though we know the Isle of Purbeck well and have our own house near Church Knowle this was a new discovery. The house is vey well equipped and very comfortable inside. We all enjoyed spending time outside, on the grass and beach and watching spectacular sunsets. Unfortunately the outdoor equipment and furniture could do with replacing as one of the benches is cracked, fire pit on the way out, and the gas BBQ very temperamental. I'm an avid gardener/garden designer and would love to give the garden the care it needs.
