Wow what a gorgeous garden cabin, so comfortable with the most amazing bed. The kitchen has everything you need with a lovely hot shower. Right in the heart of Bridport but tucked away in the oasis of a garden so really quiet. We will definitely go back as the owners are lovely and offer hypnotherapy, massage and yoga classes in their lovely studios.
We loved the privacy and security of the garden studio, it was clean, tidy and had everything we needed and the hosts were lovely! Great value for money! Would happily stay here again :)
Julia and Paul were friendly and welcoming. Accommodation clean and tidy. Close to town centre and bus station.
Lots to do in area either cultural or active.
All in all a very relaxing break.
Julia and Paul are great hosts, the welcome pack was useful, the location to Bridport is excellent. This was the third time we have been here and will go again in the future. Thanks to our hosts.
Warm welcome on arrival. The accommodation was very clean and well stocked . Very comfortable stay .

This was a good holiday property with plenty of room for the two of us. The location was quiet and peaceful with shops nearby and West Bay, Lyme Regis. Poole etc within easy reach by car. There is on-street parking which was quite busy but we did always find a space close by. Helpful and caring hosts.
Just want we wanted somewhere to sleep eat and chill and just round the corner from shops and bus to take you to west bay .Plus hubby didn't have to drive anywhere once arrived .
Paul met me as arranged & showed me around the garden studio. It had everything I needed. Very close to Bridport & an ideal base for some lovely walks. Comfortable, private and cosy. Just what I wanted.
It is a wonderful place to stay. Very quiet but very close to all the shops etc. Well maintained, very welcoming and ideal for two people. We would like to add a big thank you to the owner for her patience in trying to show us how to work the TV. This is our second time and hopefully will return again.
thank you Gill and Roger
When we first arrived, I must admit I had reservations. The area is a large housing estate.however, once you enter the garden and the property it is like an oasis. Very welcoming hosts, generous welcome pack including lovely fresh bread, butter and jams.
Great for 1 person with dogs. Two people might struggle with the limited space. Lovely shared garden down a narrow pathway. Difficult for mobility challenged people, to access
Not enough outdoor space to relax. Not suitable if taking a dog. Would only recommend for a short stay. TV didn't work well and was very small. Easy walking distance to Bridport.
We stayed three night in the garden studio and it was great.
We were provided lots of information prior to our arrival. Paul met us when we arrived and showed us around.
The garden studio is lovely. Very comfortable bed room with a table and chairs. Well Stocked kitchen with plenty of utensils, a single ring camping cooker if you want to cook.
They provided breakfast foods for us which was a lovely touch.
We really liked it and the location is great, two minutes from the town centre. Great for a long weekend stay.
I phoned the host (Julia) when i was half an hour away. They came out to meet me and showed me in. She showed me where everything was. I had her number in case i needed something. The accomodation was spotless, lots of info regarding taxis etc. I was there for a wedding but wish i booked an extra couple of days. Can highly recommend this accommodation. Lovely hosts.
Julia and Pall, the host, very welcoming. Garden Studio very comfortable. Had everything we needed. Welcome breakfast was provided. Tea & coffee available. Cleaning items. Bathroom just perfect with a shower.
Great location, easy walking distance to centre of town.
Parking can be a bit of an issue, but, there is free parking after 6pm at the police station, a 5 minute walk from the property.
Thank you Julia and Paul for a fabulous stay. Will definitely be back.
