"I would like to give this property 5 stars overall."
The location was lovely. A beautiful woodland was nearby with acres to explore. It had various spots along its pathways with a croquet lawn set up, a tree swing and many other spots to sit and take in the gorgeous scenery. We were lucky enough to have a Fawn come into our lodge garden one evening and we spotted two in the early morning. A treasured memory!!There are also two sheep (mellow and repunzle) in the next field; to whom my Husband liked to go and say hello to each day.
The lodge was well equipped and a great base for our week of exploring Dorset. The bed was very comfortable and we slept well. The hot tub was a great treat at the end of each day. There were towels, towelling dressing gowns and hot tub slippers waiting on the bed when we arrived. With a lovely welcome sign and goodies in a basket. All in all, a lovely place to just relax and unwind.
Best wishes Louise and Kevin.

"A great base to explore the area from."
We loved the closeness of the local wildlife. An owl and four deer, and the resident sheep.
The facilities were high spec, and the hot tub was superb.
We could easily recommend this lodge to friends and family.

We had a wonderful stay at Pheasant lodge and wanted for nothing! The lodge has everything you need for a relaxing stay and also has its own grounds which you can explore at leisure. There is a wood that leads to wildflower meadows where you will find a bbq fire pit and a croquet lawn too!
Located within easy reach of the ‘Jurassic coast’ and all other attractions this is ideal for a romantic getaway. We will be back.

There are loads of facilities at the lodge which make every penny of the stay worthwhile, coffee machine, tea, locally made biscuits and chocolate and plenty of board games for an intimate romantic weekend away.
We didn't indulge in the country walks around the grounds but that was because we couldn't source any suitable footwear (Wellies) for doing so. Kellie & Steve informed us of all the different locations we could walk to with seating areas and heating facilities at each one.
The area is lovely, and the food and staff at the nearby pub were equally wonderful.

The inventory is perfect: lots of kitchen utensils, plastic cups to have a drink in the hot tub, slippers and robes, soft blankets, games, the list goes on! The information folder in the cottage is a brilliant source of info - we barely used our car, as there are so many great walks in the area. Hot tub a great bonus of course! We really enjoyed bubbling away in the tub while watching the stars at night. The surrounding (private) countryside offers a few shorter walks and hidden places to have a sit around a fire pit. The cottage also boasts a pizza oven and little chiminea (we didn't use these, but nice to have the option!).

There is an information folder that contains everything you need to know.

The hot tub is brilliant, clean, checked everyday by the owners and it's so nice sitting in even when the weather is not the best, you can still enjoy the incredible view from the hot tub. It clearly shows that the owners are working hard to make everything clean and tidy while keeping the original miracle of this place.

They literally have thought of everything in this lodge. From fire pits with wood and firelighters ready to go and blankets to keep warm, to a beautiful woodland walk light up dimly by little fairly lights.
The hot tub is fantastic, and the view from it is even better, most nights we had a little deer visit us.
The wildlife in the area is outstanding, we saw pairs of green woodpeckers, a pheasant that would feed from your hand and walk with you in the fields, swallow flying around everywhere and much more. Including the two fluffy gentle natured cats that take a stroll on a morning and night.
The owners were so tentative yet you felt like you were completely alone, thanks to the view of fields and woodland in front of the lodge, and a fence on the left tucking away the owners house. We were surprised to find a lovely bottle of bubbly and homemade lemon drizzle cake set out for us.
The lengths the owners have went to, to deliver a relaxing and really enjoyable holiday, is ridiculous. We cannot fault them!
I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone, whether your looking to chill out and enjoy a drink and the hot tub, or watch nature come right up to you. This has it all. I really could keep going on!
Thank you so much, and we hope to stay and see you guys again!

The BBQ pits placed around the land are another example of just how well thought out this is, and are perfect for cooking a delicious BBQ whilst sitting back and enjoying a cold beer, with a gorgeous sunset as your backdrop.
