Tallet Barn West Reviews

Kirsty

We went for a long weekend to celebrate my birthday and it was the perfect location for what we needed! The views and setting were beautiful and not too far away from exploring little villages near by! The hot tub was the cherry on the top! Mum and I loved it, thank you!

Caroline

Beautiful location, great hot tub, plenty of amazing local walks right from the property. Indoor tennis court afternoons only.

Ian

Our countryside holiday lived up to our expectations. The accommodation in Tallet barn West is accessed by a long narrow and bumpy lane off the main road so be prepared. Being able to sit in the hot tub and take in the scenery was lovely. The surrounding area is covered with a network of footpaths to get you out to discover the landscape. Young fooRead moretball players are able to make use of the small pitch at most times however the indoor tennis/badminton courts need to be booked 24 hours inadvance. Hide

Natalie

Beautiful property in a rural setting, comfy beds and everything you need there. Hot tub was a winner with the boys and such a quiet peaceful location. The lane up to the property is abit bumpy. Would recommend great little property

Linda

A lovely place to stay. I would recommend it

Laura

Lovely barn, with excellent views and good facilities.

Simon

Cottage is lovely. It is in a beautiful location for exploring. A couple of niggles but overall it's a great base to explore from.

Helen

Absolutely beautiful barn conversion in a beautiful setting. Peaceful and quiet. We had an amazing week at Tallet Barn West, and look forward to staying again soon.

Lynn

We really enjoyed our stay and using the tennis facilities. Property is somewhat remote which is good and peaceful but does mean driving a few miles to shops etc. would recommend for a quiet hideaway or family holiday with space to play and walk Thank you for your hospitality

Clare

A hidden gem the view every morning was spectacular! Lovely clean and tidy accommodation. Will definitely stay here again.

David

We booked this for 3 nights mid week break and the accommodation was really lovely. Not really cold outside for being November but couldn't resist putting the log stove on and watching a real fire. Hot Tub was also lovely to use. Everything was clean and had everything need to enjoy our stay - the bread/milk/butter/cake and biscuits was also really appreciated on arrival after driving up from Cornwall. Very peaceful area. Thank you Simon and Lisa.

Ian

Simon

Lovely comfortable unit, quality fit-out/furnishings with log fire, hot tub and access to indoor tennis and badminton courts (note: 9-5 weekdays only). Nice location with lovely views across the hillside. A good place to relax/chill (although there is an adjoining unit, this was unoccupied the week we were there).

Monkey World is not only a local attraction but the work they carry out is amazing.

Open year round we think this is one of best attractions in Dorset and you even get the chance to adopt a monkey if you choose.
