Holiday rentals with a fire pit in East Dorset District

The house was our home for a few days celebrating a 70th birthday. The glorious weather helped but the garden spaces with toys and sports equipment provided was great for young and old. Add in the hot tub, bbq and the ample fire pit for the cool evenings and everyone was happy. The house was spacious for 15 of us, with everything provided to cook up a storm and a games room offering a bit of friendly competition when it was needed. We had a great time.

We had a wonderful stay in the lodges while visiting family in the area. Andrea was incredibly helpful from first communication and just the loveliest, most accomodating host. The lodges are idyllic and situated in lovely surroundings with nice walks. We will not hesitate to book again.

Just wonderful. The place was so cosy and we were given accurate, easy to follow instructions. The host was lovely and provided us with lots of information! I would definitely recommend x

Great location for Cowes and walking to transport links. (Loved the bus service on IoW.) House was perfect for a large group with loads of bathrooms and superb amount of kitchen equipment/ glassware etc. Very clean and tidy whilst at the same time comfortable. Would go back with a big group.

WOW! This is the best Airbnb we have ever stayed in! If you’re staying in Glastonbury but want a peaceful place to stay (which is ten mins from the walk to the Tor) just book it ! The house is absolutely stunning but we spent most of the time in the garden which is out of this world and very private. The hot tub was a huge bonus after a trip into town to relax away from the crowds – Sophie has made her home so welcoming & its perfect for a group. The beds are so comfy and all you can hear is birdsong each morning – its is so gorgeous and tranquil. The location couldn’t have been better – we went into town to eat (Queen of Cups is fab) one night but stayed ‘home’ for the rest of the time. Chalice Well & White Springs also within walking distance (down dirt track). Celebrated my 50th here and from start to finish it was the perfect weekend. Thanks so much Sophie. We were blown away by your beautiful home in our beloved Glasto - we will be back xx

What a wonderful find, location, location, location! The lodge is right on the river where you can watch the daily foray of boats, paddle boards, canoes and wildlife. The lodge itself was very clean with plenty of storage and cupboard space. Gorgeous outside space with strategically placed hammocks and chairs to watch the world go by. I had a massage in the spa which was wonderful and we all went in the sauna with its cold water pool, all on site, what an experience! Christchurch high street is 2 mins away with its many restaurants and shops. I would definitively recommend this Airbnb.

A lovely, relaxing couple of nights stay. The Coach House has all you need, is warm and cosy and very comfortable. The beds are super comfy and the duvets really warm and cosy. The garden is very private and a lovely feature, and for anyone staying in warmer weather has everything you need to spend plenty of time outdoors. If you're looking to keep your steps up, try a walk round the lakes, lots of bird life, very interesting. The lighting system took a bit of getting used to but is very ambiant and well thought out. The kitchen has plenty of space so you can cook and chat. It would have been good if the oven had worked but we were told about this beforehand and provided with an airfryer so could work around this quite easily. The host was always quick to respond, kept in touch and made our stay very easy. I would recommend The Coach House for a very relaxing and comfortable stay. All the quirky little touches make The Coach House quite unique and we would definately return.

Our family of four, including our two teenagers, really enjoyed the cozy relaxed wholesomeness of Felicity’s house and garden. The house is warm and spacious with all the necessary amenities a family could need. Our dog loved the garden and the easy of the nearby fields and woods for walks. It is a short walk to a few pubs and a short drive to the shops. We recommend staying here 100%.

I went for the Easter long weekend with my mum and friend. Anna is super lovely and made the whole stay great. It was self check in but she was available over message and very responsive. The flat is super clean, comfortable and spacious. We had treatments at Annas salon (massages and facials) and we all agreed they were the best we ever had. Couldn't recommend enough!

We had a wonderful stay and couldn’t have been made to feel more welcome by our lovely hosts.. The location is fantastic with good restaurants, an incredible harbour and miles of white sandy beach within walking distance. The novelty of staying on Sandbanks added a unique interest .. we loved it 😊.. Thank you Madeleine, Michelle and Nick for your warm hospitality 😊 x

David and Pamela were very welcoming, friendly and accommodating. We stayed for 1 night and all went as well as the description stated. Thank you for your hospitality and would recommend staying at their apartment. Easy parking and close to town and amenities.

Thank you Ruth. We had a lovely short stay. It worked brilliantly for us. After a long and wet walk at Lulworth Cove we took advantage of the lovely warm fire. Relaxed and watched a movie. Great memories.

Incredible place to go with kids. So much outdoor space and things to do in the garden, including the cutest fairy house! Also a 5 min walking distance from an awesome family friendly pub.

A fabulous place! I stayed with my wife and two children (4 and 2) and couldn’t recommend it more. The accommodation was perfect, it’s private, quiet, clean and has everything you need. A well organised pool house, with a kitchen and clean amenities you need. The pool and hot tub was a great addition that the children loved. The house is set in a quiet residential area that was perfect for exploring Winchester and Paultons/Peppa Pig World. Stephanie and her husband were attentive, polite and communicative if we needed anything. Made the 3 nights stay very easy, enjoyable and relaxing. Highly recommend.

I took my wife away for her birthday along with our 19month old little girl and golden retriever, I’m not sure who enjoyed it the most. The incredible garden and fields the accommodation looks out to was not only stunning but ideal for tiring them both out. Lovely walks from the house to the woods and lots of other great days out within 30mins. The accommodation itself is clean and cosy with everything you’d need. Would highly recommend.

We had a wonderful stay here. The place was so clean and had everything we needed. The pool and hot tub was fantastic. The beds were so comfy (and I am super picky about this). The location was great, we had such a great stay, my daughter did not want to leave.

WOW.....Outlook Lodge has got to be one of the best UK holidays we've been to: * the photos don't do it justice in the layout, quality of furniture/beds/bedding. The attention to detail is amazing. *the view from the Lodge is just spectacular, breath taking. *Debbie is an extremely friendly, approachable person, nothings to much trouble. Her pre-arrival info is awesome. Lots of recommendations ref pubs for dining, places to go, dog walks, cycle tracks. *Hot tub is lovely & hot, watching the stars over the Mendips is fabulous. *The Lodge has all mod cons. Streaming TV, full WiFi, beds are just so comfy, central heating makes the Lodge snug & warm, full range of kitchen utensils (if you want to cook). *Can't not mention the gorgeous small herd of Alpacas, who are sometimes in the field next to Lodge, they will come and say hi to you 😍 If you want a relaxing tranquil quiet/peaceful break then we can't recommend Debbie's place enough. We will definitely be back very soon 😘 🤩👍xxx

Beautiful cabin and so well thought through and made. Lovely spot and quiet during the day. Could hear bit of noise during the night from the container dockyard fairly close by. Really comfy bed and still slept pretty well

We have visited and stayed in the New Forest many times as a family but this was by far our favourite stay at this wonderful Cabin in the woods! Michael is an extremely attentive host and made sure everything went smoothly for our stay. The welcome basket was an incredibly kind touch. The Cabin itself is just wonderful - extremely comfy beds, beautifully decorated, well equipped with everything you could need and beyond. It is well stocked with games for both indoors and outdoors which our children loved. But the location and surroundings are the real stand out - utterly idyllic in a peaceful and private patch of the forest. Our children loved being able to roam free and explore and an evening spent by the fire pit listening to the sound of birdsong will be etched in our memories forever. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend a stay here - book it now!! And we will definitely return as soon as we can.

This is a fantastic little find for the New Forest. The studio itself has character, charm, and everything you could need for a short or longer term stay. Easy to find everything, and most of all, a lovely cosy comfy bed. Alison was a warm and welcoming host, who provided a list of recommended restaurants in the area. Responsive to messages, couldn't have asked for better. If I'm ever heading back to the New Forest area, I'll definitely be looking up this property first!

was lovely, stayed with my partner for a week and we loved the hot tubs and log burners in the evenings. Great location and I'd highly recommend.

Absolutely gorgeous property hidden away in the woodland. The photos do not do it justice, it is much larger than the photos make and super cosy ! The cabin is a short walk from where you will park 5-10 minutes but the walk is lovely and very easy to find. The host was really helpful and replied very fast to any questions and queries. We will be looking to book again in the next year. The photos do not do the property justice !

We loved our stay at the cabin in the woods. Peaceful surroundings and a beautiful cabin. A perfect location close to quaint villages and the New Forest National Park.

We had a memorable stay in Ryan's Cabin. We can echo many of the lovely comments from the previous reviews. The Cabin was a perfect base for our 4 night stay in the New Forest - comfortable, spotlessly clean, having everything we needed, including the super breakfast selection. We struck lucky with the weather as well so enjoyed two bbqs outside in the warm evenings. Our other highlights included the 4 mile circular walk from the cabin to the Lamb Inn for lunch, a walk from Linford Bottom and a super lunch at the Alice Lisle pub. We had a lovely welcome from Patrick and Margaret, they were fantastic hosts. We really appreciatived the very helpful guidance they gave us during our stay. Highly recommended.
