Field House Reviews

Andrew
A great family holiday house in a lovely location.
Peter
Field House offers plenty of space. The 'garden room' proved very popular and functions as a large lounge/dining room. This, together with the original dining room, lounge and large hall means that there is an exceptional amount of internal space. The size of the front and side gardens are unlike any that we have encountered elsewhere. The pictures do not really do justice to the view from the front door across the valley. We divided our time between Swanage and Studland beaches - the journeys were straightforward. The real test is would we be happy to book again? Yes we would.
Christine
This property is very spacious. Great having the two rooms with 2 tvâ??s, could spread ourselves out. Not on top of each other. Also a dining room, which we played games in there and did puzzles, so not disturb the tv watchers. The kitchen was fabulous, very well equipped and having 2 fridges was handy with big families. The bedrooms were great and very comfy beds. The small bedroom with bunk beds had a step, which could be hazardous (trip over it) especially for children. We put grandad in there, he was ok! The outside was fantastic, so much space for the family to play games, especially cricket, football and badminton, they had great fun outside. Was lovely to see the horses and the deer and lots of birds, which we fed with the seeds from the porch. Was great sitting in the porch just chilling. We visited the steam trains and the beach every day, the kids loved it. Thank you for a lovely holiday and would highly recommend to others.
Andrew
The property and grounds are extremely spacious. The house is in an excellent location. The property owner was very helpful accommodating all of our family. Would definitely recommend to all.
Hamish
Field is comfortable and unfussy. Great space for families.
Michael
Lovely location very quiet apart from the odd car , house ideal for large families with dogs well equipped Road into house could be better maintained a few pot holes but used other entrance love to come back again
Jill
We always look forward to coming back! We have already booked for next Easter!
Marion
Very comfortable and super location - great for exploring the area. We had a very pleasant stay and enjoyed having so much space.
Catherine
A gorgeous house in a beautiful part of Dorset. We loved the walk to and from Corfe Castle along the hill at the back. On the stormy day we three generations and dog enjoyed each other's company in this cosy home with plenty of games and films to catch up on. Many walks and beaches to explore.
David
Stunning location and very good value for money. Good dog walks from the door onto the hills. Easy reach of seaside. Seven adults and one child had plenty of room. Downstairs has three roome meaning you can get away from the rest of your group to read or do jigsaws. Good amount of equipment. Garden not enclosed but is not near any one else ofrmajor roads. This was not really a problem for our dogs. Highly recommend!
Nikki
This is a lovely large holiday cottage set in a large garden overlooking Purbeck countryside. Ideal to use as a base to explore the surrounding area, we all thoroughly enjoyed our holiday.
Denise
Large property set in a quiet area but close to the coast, brilliant for bird watching and wildlife from the front door. We have stayed here 4 times now and will be returning again.
Gary
Lovely big house ideal for large family or multi generation holiday group. Ideal location close to Swanage, Corfe and surrounding Dorset coastline. Lovely large garden for a dog but not enclosed. Very well equipped kitchen.
