Late arrival, early departure. Was a stop on the journey. But would certainly consider for a stay

Plenty of space, clean and well equipped in a great location close to local shops and pubs. Off street parking is a bonus. Host lives on site and is very helpful. This is the 3rd time I've stayed there and its always good.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay. The bed was very comfy, and we slept very well! The accommodation was cosy and had everything we needed. The information booklet provided by the host was very useful and made our stay much easier in finding places locally to eat. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Weird I know, but a table lamp in the living room!!!

Great facilities.

Left a list of improvements for Shaun to think about whether he takes these on board ?

Very handy for my stay and to get around Dorset and local area which I do know well

Nothing but i would say it be good to have a lock on the bedroom door

Very nice place, very well kept and everything you need for a couple days, there is so many great places around here, you have a lounge area you can use also.

A microwave would be very useful !

Nice house in a quiet street, in a perfect location, near to all local attractions. Perfect for exploring the Isle of Purbeck. Information booklet was very helpful. Would recommend to anyone and definitely go back again. We liked everything - really friendly and helpful hosts, everything we needed.

Only downside was that we had to leave early after one night due to family emergency and couldn't get a refund which was a shame but i understand. Will stay again if in the area.

Really close to arne and studland and wareham which was great. There's a little shop around 5 minute walk away. Bed is really comfy and shower is great. There's a nice little lounge area with a big tv with netflix and youtube and other streaming services and kettle and little fridge was is very handy.

Everything was perfect, great for my 1 night stay.

The only thing was the mirror in the bathroom, which wasn't big enough or hung high enough for the tall fella like me. :D

Near perfection. Cozy, clean, comfy. Short walk from village center, short drive from my travel destination, which was the Tank Museum.

What a lovely experience we had staying at Ballantrae. The property was cosy and welcoming, very clean and comfortable. The location is also excellent, on a quiet street, within short walking distance to the train/bus station, shops and the local pub which we found to be superb. We were also kindly provided with a kettle, a mini fridge, TV and fresh water/snacks every day. We did also enjoy reading the Welcome booklet very much upon arrival, so nicely put together 😃 Shower was sparkling clean and working perfectly. Bed was comfortable. Last but not least, the price was very affordable. Everything was great really. We would definitely like to stay at Ballantrae again when in Dorset. Thank you very much Shaun.

The lounge could do with dimmer lighting but this is only a minor point.

Well located room with a private lounge only a short drive away from the sea. Comfy double bed. Sofa in the lounge with a smart TV, little fridge and tea making facilities. Great curtains that keep the sunlight out, ideal for lie-ins. We had a great weekend!

Nothing

Set in a quiet street with parking right outside the door. There were pubs and shops within walking distance. Perfect for Monkey World or the Tank Museum (5 minute drive). The bedroom was small, but cosy and it was really good to have the separate lounge. The bed was comfortable and the shower was hot and powerful. The rooms had everything that we needed. We were only there for one night, but it would be ideal for a longer stay or for anyone working in the area.

Great location if you want to visit the Jurassic coast. The room is exactly as shown in the pictures. it was tidy, clean and comfortable.

Great location for what I needed. Simple accommodation but comfortable and clean. Shaun was very helpful during my stay. Highly recommend if you're visiting the tank museum or monkey world in the vicinity.

Lovely cosy bedroom

Stayed in February 2024

Nothing really in terms of my specific needs.

No breakfast was provided but a kettle with drink options were there. A TV with satellite access in a separate private lounge was also provided so that was a bonus. The location was also very quiet being away from a main road so that ensured I had a good night's sleep. Location was also ideal to walk less than 10- minutes to a local Pub for my supper.

Great room with en-suite and additional living room area. The landlord couldn’t have been more helpful during our stay.
