Oct 28, 2025 Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy A lovely old building which could have been so nice but it really wasn’t. On the plus side it was warm ( October stay ), plenty of hot water, a good location for visiting the coast - Durdle Door, Lulworth Cove, Weymouth. Unfortunately it smells very damp and is in need of upgrading. It also should have been cleaner, especially the kitchen. The surfaces were sticky and greasy, the seals are mouldy and coming away from the walls and worktops, there was mouldy bread in the bread bin. In my opinion overpriced for this standard of accommodation ##### Jane B.
