A very well kept, cosy house with enough space. Nicely equipped, there is everything you need. Very clean. Quiet neighbourhood. Easy parking in front of the house. Railway station, shops and restaurants about 10-20 minutes walk. One of Hardy's houses only five minutes walk away. Dorchester is a nice town with some attractions of its own and lots of shops and restaurants. A perfect starting point for trips all over Dorset by train, bus or car. Clearly much better value for money than in the seaside towns. We really liked our stay there.
