    The location of the B&B is great! Lovely view when having breakfast in the morning. Breakfast was great, toast and croissants with ham and cheese, fresh eggs and honey and marmalade. Yogurt and cereal was available, too. We explored Lulworth and the coast, which took only 10min to get there by car. Irene and Vince were very hospitable, we had some nice chats with them before we left. Would always come back :)

    Its a personal choice but would have preferred some additional options at breakfast and to include a cooked breakfast rather than just a continental. Seating in the bedroom would also have been a great addition to the stay.

    Vince and Irene are lovely people and very welcoming. The property is in a fantastic location to get around to various Dorset attractions and there are a couple of great local places to eat that are on the doorstep. Clean and well maintained with off road parking.

    There wasnt anything to dislike about the stay. I do have but some overall thoughts, so others booking can be aware of. The property is on the main road, but it's set back, and there is no noise. We stayed in the front room and I was worried we would hear traffic but actually we didn't hear a thing. Out of personal preference, I think my partner would have preferred a cooked breakfast, whereas I prefer continental. It is quite secluded, so if you want something a little more lively I would recommend staying in the centre of West Lulworth itself.

    Irene and Vince are lovely and very welcoming. The room was very clean, modern and comfortable. We both slept really well. The property is close to the Red Lion pub, which we recommend as the food is great and the people are super friendly. The breakfast is continental and there is a nice selection: toast, croissants with ham and cheese, fruit jams, honey, yoghurt and cereal etc. Sitting in the dining area in the morning was really pretty by the window. The sun was warm and we were watching the chickens.

    I was perfectly satisfied with my booking, but guests should be aware the breakfast is continental, the bedrooms are not en-suite and there is no EV charge point. That said, nearby Dorchester is well-equipped for public charging.

    Good location close to the Jurassic Coast. Irene and Vince are hospitable without being intrusive. The accommodation is clean, beds are comfortable and there are plenty of cupboards and wardrobes for storage. Despite only staying four nights, our towels were changed mid-stay. The breakfast is continental with home baked bread and good quality coffee.

    The Check-in time could be earlier as by 3 pm, half of the day is being over. Rest is apt.

    This property exceeded my expectations. The location is very easy to access and very near to Durdle Door Beach (8 mins drive). The rooms are spacious, neat and clean & you will find everything in its place. The hosts Irene and Vince are very adorable and professional. They have maintained the property with love, which is reflected in each section of it. They served freshly prepared breakfast. The view from the rooms is so calm and beautiful. It also provides ample parking is available. The Pub/Restaurant is just 1 min walk.

    Not ideal for families with younger kids since they are expected to avoid any noise when walking from own to parent's room.
