We chose this property for the location near to a wedding. The view and property itself were lovely but there was a lot to be improved upon . Small things really ,to bring this place up to an acceptable standard. Between the windows in every room there were a lot of dead insects, cobwebs etc and they had been neglected for a long time. Damp on the kitchen wall with flaked paint on the work surfaces. The downstairs rooms were OK with the exception of the main sitting room which smelled very badly of damp/mildew. The main bedroom has a large upholstered headboard which had dust clumps along the top , the bedlinen was very shabby .Two tiny thin cheap towels per person was inadequate . Under the bed was fuzzy with dust and pretty grim. The main bathroom window was broken there was no seal on the shower so water leaked on the floor , a hopeless wooden bathmat was provided and it was not safe for the more elderly in our party. Some of the beds were very comfortable but in two rooms the beds were very very squeaky! The cheapest possible garden benches were plonked in the garden and in a property such as this there really should be something better ( again these benches are not suitable for older people) Sunloungers were promised but nowhere to be found. The main issue outside was the huge amount of broken glass, directly outside on the lawn and in the swing area. There were also a lot of cigarette ends strewn about the place. A bossy notice saying that guests would be charged extra for not cleaning the barbecue was fair enough but no cleaning brush or barbecue specific cleaning materials were anywhere to be found ... Another little thing which would be so easy to remedy was that the cheapest possible hand soap was provided in slightly grubby pump dispensers . We had a lovely stay in spite of these small issues but this should be a luxury holiday cottage and the only luxury was the view .

10/10. Incredible location. Exceptional welcome basket on arrival. Only thing to note is spacing out showers if large numbers of guests are staying to give the immersion tank a break. We will be back soon!

I booked this property with a group of friends because of it's fabulous location. I already knew the area well and it did not disappoint! We took along a few paddles boards and enjoyed being able to get straight out onto the water in the early morning mist, sit around the fire pit in the evening and enjoy the local walks. The house itself is old and full of character with plenty of room for a large group.

Location: paradise Cleanliness: could do with a good clean, under beds, for example Kitchen: well stocked but missing garlic press and vegetable scraper Garden: gorgeous but the garden furniture an embarrassment and really took away from the cosiness and homely feel of the cottage both outside and inside. Would highly recommend this retreat, it is a unique property providing a tranquil bolt hole from the rat race, a gem.

Our family had a wonderful stay at Ower Quay Cottage and rarely left the property during their stay. It's rare to find a house in such a beautiful location. Even though we know the Isle of Purbeck well and have our own house near Church Knowle this was a new discovery. The house is vey well equipped and very comfortable inside. We all enjoyed spending time outside, on the grass and beach and watching spectacular sunsets. Unfortunately the outdoor equipment and furniture could do with replacing as one of the benches is cracked, fire pit on the way out, and the gas BBQ very temperamental. I'm an avid gardener/garden designer and would love to give the garden the care it needs.

We all (from 8 to 81) had a wonderful holiday. The children could safely run free outside and enjoy the swings, beach, climbing trees etc. The adults marveled at the beautiful outside space and were very comfortable inside too. The shallow water was ideal for the inflatable boats we took and the fire pit was great, especially when there were fireworks in Poole. Wild life was constantly interesting. I feel grateful that such a place has survived! Thank you Emma Heather

Ower cottage is quite possibly the most beautiful place to stay in for a tranquil relaxing break. The views from the garden/ beach are magical. From watching the tides go in and out to observing the birds. The beach and garden are perfect for children to play in. Close by there is Studland beach, Corfe Castle and Swanage which offers lots for children to do. Or simply just walk out of the house across the heathlands and don’t take the car. The walks are beautiful. The house itself is stunning. We had a party of ten and there was more than ample space, with the children occupying one sitting room setting up camp. The welcome basket was the best we have ever been given, especially the home made apple cake! Emma the host was very helpful and made sure we had everything we wanted. We will most certainly return.
