We loved it. Very well located in the beautiful village of Upwey, with most major attractions (Lulworth Cove, Durdle Door, Chesil Beach, etc.) no more than a 25-min drive away. Dog-friendly too, which was a must for us!

The property was not clean. Dirty cutlery, crockery, fridge, bedding, and shower. The dishwasher was not working, new one fitted the afternoon before our last day. Spiders in every room, peanuts on bedroom floor. Reported to Sykes on arrival, who sent a different team of cleaners, we sat while they cleaned around us, they did a good job and were very apologetic. The owner offered one of the other properties and a washing up service after a couple of days, we declined due the upheaval and autistic child who became upset of an unexpected change of environment.
