Clean, immaculate garden and setting. Great to have large open space for kids to play in and see the cows. Good base to explore Dorset.

The chalet was very well presented and had everything that we needed in order to enjoy our stay. The host and her family were very friendly, and the kids enjoyed seeing the calves and meeting other children from the adjacent chalets. We had a lovely time.

Well presented with everything you could ever need for a great stay in the countryside! We had a great time, loads of space for everyone to relax and the outside space with hot tub was ideal for a glass or two of bubbly whilst taking in the views.

Absolutely brilliant! Our whole party really enjoyed staying in the chalet, it has everything that you need. The owners made our stay even better by allowing us to help feed their cows and milk their calves! The hot tub was the highlight and was covered by a canopy. We were lucky to have had great weather but if you are not so lucky it would still be usable. The local pub (the ship inn), serves great food and drink and has a lovely garden, be prepared to walk though as there are no taxis/or buses.

The house was beautiful and was very clean. The hot tub was great and the host was very helpful.

We only had a weekend stay but we would definitely be keen for another trip. The Chalet has everything you need, very well equipped and clean. The main open plan area is great to entertain for anything from a major feast to board games or just sitting back to read a book. The local "Udder farm shop" is just 6mins down the road and has everything from fresh strawberry and cream scones with tea to a huge variety of foods and other local fresh produces (great butchery selection as well) And if you are in a pinch there is a Tesco 10mins away that's open till midnight (apart from Sundays). The hosts are very friendly and accommodating and went out of their way to make our stay very enjoyable. 5 stars! :-)

High quality accommodation in a central location. Lodge was spotless and very well equipped with some welcome extras. Owner Christina was very friendly and helpful in an unobtrusive way.

We had a lovely time. Property is 5 star quality. Games room is great. Plenty for the children to do even when the weather is bad. Could not fault it. Our thanks to Christina, for a lovely stay,

Just returned from a weekend in the Melbury Chalet. Chalet was pristine and well equipped, hot tub was lovely!! Highlight of the weekend was going to see the cows being milked. Will be coming back for sure! Thank you Christina

Perfect New Year break for three thirty-something couples. The hot tub was lovely, the fields were fantastic. The owner even let us feed the calves! Well equipped and thoughtful accommodation. Highly recommend!

Chris and Martin are the perfect host and the lodges are the best we have stayed in. Very clean and they have everything you could ever need, even a washing machine. The farm was fabulous for the kids and they loved seeing he calves being born(even Wayne enjoyed getting stuck in delivering some calves) The kids (and me and my wife) loved seeing the cows being milked and it was great that Martin asked our kids if they would like to feed the calves their milk. The lodges are an ideal base to just stay and relax or if you want to see the sites like monkey world and the tank museum etc they are not to far away. The local pub offers great food and the staff are all very friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be looking into going back as soon as we can and would recommend these holiday lodges to any one.

The lodge was very nice but I would have liked a zip and link bed for the master bedroom, also the shower cubicles were a bit on the small side. The owner is very nice and helpful

This rental property was delightful. Set on the top of a hill with wonderful views, it was a clean, well furnished and very comfortable home to stay in. Ten minutes from Shaftesbury and within easy traveling distance to Salisbury, Sherborne, and many National Trust properties. A great opportunity to spend time in one of the most historic and beautiful areas of England. Christine and Martin were very welcoming and helpful. Would not hesitate to rent this property again
