Lovely setting and ideal for a reunion of old friends. Comfy and spacious with everything we needed for the trip.

We had a fabulous long weekend celebrating my 50th birthday at Rushay. The house is beautiful & location perfect, Jason was welcoming and a great host. Comfy beds, well equipped kitchen and lovely big dining table, house was warm plus plenty of wood for the fire. Loved the walk to Charmouth beach from the house. Thank you for a lovely stay!

This house is packed full of charm and character, with everything we needed for our stay. The wonderful grounds and tennis court kept the children entertained for hours and we loved being able to walk directly through the fields to Charmouth. Jason is an excellent host, nothing was too much trouble and we would highly recommend this property.

Great house and super location. Lovely long walk to beach. Excellent hosts.

Rushay was perfect!! Thank you for our lovely break

We have just enjoyed a brilliant family Christmas at ‘Rushay’ in Dorset, a large Edwardian house with stunning pastoral views, a fireplace, an aga, and a big family dining room. Outside there is a courtyard, a huge garden, with a stile leading to fields and a coastal walk. The children were in seventh heaven, and the adults found it welcoming and relaxing, with a tempting array of good reads, including the owner’s own published thriller. Many thanks to Jason for a memorable stay!

A beautifully situated property within easy reach of country walks and sea . The house is beautifully spacious and thoughtfully furnished. Jason was welcoming and quick to respond to requests.

This is a lovely, very well equipped house, which is light and airy and in a lovely position. Jason, the landlord, couldn't have been more helpful and friendly, and our family party of 16, whose ages range from 14 to 80, all had a great time. I agree with one of the previous holiday makers that it would have been nice to have more showers, even hand held showers over each bath would be good! Our only gripe, and this applied to every house we looked at in England, is the price - it was as third as much again as the house that we'd booked in Tuscany where all the 6 bedrooms were ensuite and there was a pool, a gardener and a cleaner. But that's the market, so I don't blame Jason for responding to it!

We had an absolutely fantastic week staying at Rushay in early August, 2021 along with a group of university friends and their children. We feel extremely fortunate to have stumbled across Rushay having all but given hope of finding somewhere suitable of accommodating our group during the summer of 2021. For a couple of the nights we were running at capacity including children but never felt remotely cramped owing to the wonderful size of the house, including the cottage. The garden was fantastic for entertaining the children and we loved the section that had been left uncut and untrimmed which provided ample opportunity for exploration and adventure. The views from the western part of the house over the rolling hills made for a perfect afternoon BBQ. The location of the house was excellent with just a short jaunt to Charmouth beach and the lovely town of Lyme Regis which everyone in the group enjoyed. Thought we weren't able to enjoy any of the nearby country walks with small children I can only assume they would be fantastic diversions with unbelievable views of the Dorset countryside. Jason was a brilliant host throughout. Extremely responsive before our arrival and very accommodating. We had a change over between some guests and he helpfully put us in contact with the cleaner to facilitate a tidy up. His suggestions for the local area were always spot on, we particularly enjoyed the produce from the local farm shop and the little honesty stall in Wootton Fitzpaine. If there was but one small issue among the group, the house only contains one shower (albeit an excellent shower) along with several baths. This caused a bit of a crunch in the mornings with a large group, but obviously easily remedied and didn't materially impact our stay. Overall we could not have been happier with our week in the Dorset country. If you're fortunate enough to be able to spend time at Rushay I'm confident you would not regret it.

We loved this house, loads of indoor and outdoor space and a great location - quiet but within easy reach of coast/countryside and local attractions - all of which suited us perfectly. Nesting swallows and house martins were fledging when we were there and we enjoyed the walk into Charmouth from the house.. A great deal of care has been taken in equipping the property, making for a comfortable stay. Jason couldn’t have been more helpful, both before and during our holiday with suggestions. We are so glad we took the chance and booked it - as a new property there were no reviews - and would love to return.
