  • "The kitchen was inadequate,nowhere to prepare food not enough items and only one blunt carving knife."

    The freezer is in need of defrosting.in need of some TLC.doors don’t fit well.The master bedroom has inadequate room for the wardrobe in the position it has been put.no need for a big 4 poster bed in such a small room.Bed very uncomfortable and it creek’s every time you move.Gardens a bit unkempt.one of the garden chairs had a large hole in the middle of the seat.overall the site was very untidy.no segregation for recycling which in these days is quite poor.

  • "We booked the Lodge solely for the Hot tub which broke virtually every day."

    Judging by the staffs reaction this had been an ongoing problem. After the third time we gave up. Also on the description it said there was an onsite restaurant which was never open just a burger van and the bar was constantly running out of beer/lager

  • "The lodge is a lovely little lodge."

    It was our honeymoon getaway so we specifically wanted a hot tub, and unfortunately it constantly tripped so we couldn’t really use it for the 3 day break. There were a few things like a dirty pan in the cupboard and wood shavings in the bath, plus some spider webs so not sure how thorough the cleaners are. I did mention about the hot tub and the lovely lady said she could refund any money but could give a discount on a future stay. Apart from that, it was a nice little break and easy access into the town.

  • "I personally thought it wasn't to bad my mum however at age 85 is very house proud said chalet was dirty she pd for accommodation and she said it's not worth £809."

    The only thing is maintenance on property needs urgent attention all doors in property needs sorting out ie bathroom door didn't lock patio doors would not shut you couldn't even lock it.

The property

Resting in the wonderful holiday park of Herston Yards Farm, on the outskirts of the seaside town of Swanage, Dorset, lies this delightful, two-bedroom holiday lodge, Cherry.

Boasting a lovely, wooden-clad exterior, enclosed, outdoor decking area with garden furniture and hot tub, and superb proximity to an onsite shop and restaurant, this delightful property welcomes a family of four and their well-behaved dog to enjoy a refreshing, self-catered getaway within the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Park up, unpack, and settle into your new lodgings.

Set the chosen chef to work in the well-equipped kitchen, wherein they can find all the utensils required to prepare a delicious, home-cooked dinner to be enjoyed at the dining table, or even alfresco on the outdoor decking when the weather permits it.

After your bellies are full, take time to unwind by sticking a film on the TV in the sitting area, which is kept nice and warm by the crackling embers of a woodburning stove, or why not indulge in a long, hot soak in the outdoor hot tub and peer up as the dazzling, starry night begins to appear above.

As day rolls into night, refresh with a bath or shower before you eventually hunker down for a well-earned slumber in either of the two inviting bedrooms, each accompanied by its own Freeview-enabled TV.

If you can tear yourself from your fabulous new base, head out and explore your local surroundings.

Take a brief walk to The Shop to stock up on essentials or book a table for four to dine at The Old Mess Room, both locations located on the holiday park and just a stone's throw away from your accommodation!

A day spent in Swanage is also a must whilst you're in the area, where you and the family can take the dog for a walk along the peaceful spots of Swanage Bay and Pier, or you can even hop onboard a ride the historic Swanage Railway attraction during your visit to town.

Be sure to make your next trip to Dorset unforgettable by booking a stay at Cherry.

About the location

SWANAGE

Wareham 9.7 miles; Poole 20 miles.

The small, family-friendly seaside resort of Swanage is situated at the eastern end of Dorset’s famous Jurassic Coast, on the celebrated Isle of Purbeck and is probably best known for its wonderful, gently shelving golden sands. The little town offers visitors plenty of shops, good pubs and restaurants, some of which specialise in locally caught seafood, and is also well known for its annual jazz festival, which takes place each July. The attractive, Victorian wooden pier offers a great place for a stroll or try fishing, and often used a departure point for divers, it’s a wonderful place to watch the world pass by. The historic Swanage Railway has its terminus in the town and regular nostalgic steam engine trips take tourists for a picturesque 6-mile journey, chugging through lovely countryside to stop just beyond the romantic ruin of Corfe Castle. Nearby Durlston Country Park offers a lovely day out with spectacular coastal walks, dolphin spotting and wildlife watching, together with comfortable viewing points and a well-stocked cafe for a treat after all the fresh air. Take the short drive to Studland, which has one of the finest beaches in the country, surrounded by heathland, together with the regular chain ferry, which crosses the mouth of Poole Harbour to Sandbanks. This truly is a delightful holiday destination at any time of the year.
