We especially loved how dog-friendly they are - so rare to find! It’s a bit remote, so expect some long drives to the coast, but the beautiful scenery and cosy cottage more than made up for it. Louise’s home-cooked meals are a real treat too!

We just got back from a lovely three-night stay at Poole Farm Cottage. Greg and Lou are really welcoming hosts, making us feel right at home. It was our wedding anniversaryand Lou went above and beyond by setting up a banner, balloonsand flowers for my wife. Greg and Lou also left us a bottle of Prosecco, a cardand a small welcome pack for our Labrador-such thoughtful touches! The hot tub was a real highlightand we’d definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway. Highly enjoyable!

We stayed at Journeys End over October half term and had an amazing time! Lou and Gregg were so welcoming when we arrived, along with their adorable dog Rufus. The cottage was spotless and topped off with homemade scones, chocolate cakeand a nice bottle of red. Lou’s cooking was fantastic-especially the roast dinner, chilliand cottage pie. Our kids, aged 6 and 10and Jess, our 8-month-old Golden Retriever, all had a brilliant week. Totally recommend it!

We spent four lovely nights here with the family and honestly, everything was spot on. Lou and Greg are such warm hosts, making us feel really welcome. Lou's cooking is fantastic - we enjoyed a full English breakfast and a delicious evening meal. The Sunday lunch on arrival was just what we needed after a long day of travelling. The hot tub was the cherry on top. We’ll definitely be back!

The place is beautifully decorated and very well equipped. Lou's home-cooked meals are packed with flavour - seriously delicious.

This place really is a good place! Perfect spot away from the hustle and bustle. The dog paddock was a lovely touchand Louise’s cooking was absolutely delicious-delivered right to the door.
