Holiday rentals with lake access in West Dorset District

Our stay was brilliant, the surroundings were perfect and the secure walled garden was excellent for the dogs! Would recommend the Talbot Inn in Mells for food and drink too, only 8mins drive. Would love to stay here again, thanks Marie.

we stayed here to celebrate my husband's 60th birthday with friends and had a fabulous time. Beautiful location, very peaceful and relaxing. Good kitchen and comfy beds.

Lovely warm welcome to me and my friends .The location is super , right get next to the water with a slipway to launch canoes and paddle boards , yet a 5minute walk into town . Enjoyed the hot tub in the evening. The Chalet was very spacious and well appointed . Great for few days away with friends , we would book again .

We stayed at Mel's place for two nights for a family funeral. From the very start, she was kind, flexible and very sensitive to our situation. The house itself is beautifully decorated, and one of the best equipped Airbnbs I have ever rented. Mel has thought of everything! Parking on the drive is OK for one car and Mel sorted us a permit for another. We loved the outdoor space for our wine and fish and chips. You are really close to a supermarket, nice pubs and walks along the harbour. We were won over by Poole, and Mel's place and would love to return. Thanks for your kindness and warm hospitality.

We had a wonderful stay at Mandy’s place! Beautifully decorated, fabulous views of the lake and extremely clean and well organised. The property is spacious and had everything we needed for our trip. Mandy provided us with lots of great recommendations including the New Inn which we visited numerous times for its excellent food and lovely views! Mandy was a very responsive host and made sure we felt welcome! Would happily return and definitely recommend for a trip to the Mendip Hills!

A lovely, relaxing couple of nights stay. The Coach House has all you need, is warm and cosy and very comfortable. The beds are super comfy and the duvets really warm and cosy. The garden is very private and a lovely feature, and for anyone staying in warmer weather has everything you need to spend plenty of time outdoors. If you're looking to keep your steps up, try a walk round the lakes, lots of bird life, very interesting. The lighting system took a bit of getting used to but is very ambiant and well thought out. The kitchen has plenty of space so you can cook and chat. It would have been good if the oven had worked but we were told about this beforehand and provided with an airfryer so could work around this quite easily. The host was always quick to respond, kept in touch and made our stay very easy. I would recommend The Coach House for a very relaxing and comfortable stay. All the quirky little touches make The Coach House quite unique and we would definately return.

We had an amazing weekend at The Bungalow in Dorset. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the stunning lake view and the peaceful setting. The bungalow was spotless, beautifully decorated, and incredibly comfortable. The living area was cozy, the kitchen fully equipped, and the bedrooms provided a perfect night’s sleep. The bathroom was modern, with a powerful shower and fresh towels. The outdoor space was perfect for relaxing, and the Wi-Fi was fast and reliable. The hosts clearly put great care into ensuring a fantastic stay. We loved exploring the nearby walking trails and charming villages, but the bungalow itself was so wonderful that we spent most of our time enjoying its tranquility. Everything about our stay was perfect, and we left feeling completely refreshed. If you’re looking for a relaxing escape in Dorset, The Bungalow is an absolute gem. We can’t wait to return!

Really great house - a brilliantly equipped kitchen and excellent quality bedding and soft furnishing. The house is a real haven. So close to the beach, the quay and Christchurch and yet once you’ve shut the door it’s a little oasis of calm with a beautiful outside space leading down to the river. Chris and Claire were super responsive, check in was easy and great pointers given on places to go things to do!

Lovely tractor house to stay in. Has all the things you’d expect in a studio flat. Not very accessible if you don’t have a car fyi (not a fault of the place at all) but otherwise lovely.

This property has got to be in the best position right on the sea front. Everything on your doorstep including the beach. The flat is deceptively spacious and has pretty much everything you need and more. Don is a legend and from the moment I booked this flat nothing was too much trouble and very informative. can't wait to go back!!!

We had a fantastic stay with Jay and Jo! The lodge was absolutely beautiful, was spotlessly clean and had everything we could have needed. The breakfast basket and fresh eggs were a lovely welcome and Jay and Jo couldn’t have been friendlier. We would absolutely recommend the lakeside lodge and cannot wait to return!

We booked this place for my dad while he was moving house, so it needed to be on the ground floor, easy to access and a good location. It was all these things, and Katherine was a great host. We had an issue with the internet half way through the stay which meant that he had no internet connection at all, this was a problem with the provider that was not able to be resolved despite her many attempts. In every other respect Katherine was a great host and the house was very tidy and comfortable.

Beautiful stay over the easter weekend. Lovely lodge immaculate condition. Smart decor and everything we needed was there. The lake view was stunning and perfect for our dog to come with us aswell. So peaceful and relaxing, thankyou for an amazing stay will definitely be returning and recommending to family and friends.

What an incredible stay for a special occasion. The place is more beautiful than the pictures, especially the views, it is truly a special place. We enjoyed having our coffee and breakfast in the garden and watching the tide go in and out. Erika & John were perfect hosts and made us feel very comfortable, going the extra mile. We can't wait to return!

absolutely amazing place to stay felt right at home first place we have stayed where we had different things already provided we packed lots to come with us tea sugar coffee dish cloths fairy liquid so we was stunned to see that all this was already provided we had a fantastic stay Debby & Grant was amazing from booking to getting home we will definitely book through you again and be back beautiful caravan in the perfect spot close to the heart of everything thank you both me my partner and children had the best time and made amazing memories 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Great location for a getaway from city life! Flat is situated in front of the beach, Terry was extremely helpful and communicative with lots of local recommendations. Flat is provided with basic amenities but you don’t need a lot if you’re in such a beautiful scenery. If you’re after a restful time in a nature, with lots of hiking / walking paths then this place is for you!

So sorry I forgot to write in the book. Fabulous cottage. Outstanding location. Very relaxing. Will definitely book again

We had a brilliant stay at the Pink House! The house itself was beautifully decorated and was warm and inviting - we felt really at home here. Deborah was very friendly and responsive in her communication and sent us lots of local recommendations of things to do and places to visit. The garden was really private and we loved the built in BBQ and home-grown tomatoes and cucumbers, and the welcome basket that we're waiting for us when we arrived. The Pink House is in a great location with walks right from the front door and only 15-30 mins drive to the various beaches. We had a wonderful stay and wished we booked for longer - we'll definitely be back again!

This is a great place to stay . Catherine, the host was superb . Really helpful when I asked questions, and always replied promptly . The accommodation is great , with an AGA cooker , log stove , and a very comfy bed ! The lane to get there is very narrow, but you soon get used to it. We will be back !

Great location just a 20 minute drive from Bath city centre. Deborah was very friendly and greeted us when we arrived. The Airbnb was clean and exactly as described.

Four of us stayed for a girls weekend and thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful place. The home was beautifully furnished and decorated. The photos don't do it justice. Comfy beds, fab bathrooms and very warm and welcoming.

Abby is very welcoming and friendly host. We loved staying at the cottage. The view was beautiful, the surroundings very peaceful, the house was very clean and comfortable. There were many things to do at the property for families with children, very big gardens, you can play outdoor games, visit the sheep. Cat named Ozzy came every morning and evening to visit. Also there is plenty of things to do near by. There is lots of suggestions in a guest book. We liked it so much we wanted to extend our stay.

Stunning location, a beautiful and peaceful lodge. We especially loved the hot tub and the amazing views. The lodge has lots of windows and bifold doors which can be opened right up. Really good black out blinds for a nice lie in. The showers and kitchen appliances were great and easy to use. I highly recommend staying here!

What a fantastic house in an amazingly beautiful location. We met up as a family for the weekend and don’t think we could have found a better place to stay 👍 The house is well equipped and well laid out with great rooms throughout. The comms from Sally were timely, accurate and very helpful. The access to Stourhead and grounds were a bonus we weren’t expecting, so we had a fabulous day waking the gardens and house, with the Spreadeagle Inn ideally located for food and pit stops. I’m sure we’ll return when we can find the next excuse to meet up again 👍
