We are a large extended family staying for 5 days. It is a place suitable for all ages.

Overall a comfortable house although the three bedrooms in the roof were very small and low. The kitchen was adequate but some detailed instructions for the dishwasher and induction hob would have been very useful. 14 occupants pushes it to its limits, particularly when there are only 13 spoons! Guests should be advised to take there own coat hangers as there is little in the way of wardrobes, only wall/door hooks.

Excellent host and property

From the moment we arrived we knew this would be a special property; the Studio exudes charm, warmth and a real family feel. It was a perfect backdrop to a 60th birthday celebration. The hosts, Steven and Timo, were welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. We would definitely recommend this property, you won’t be disappointed and we will definitely return.

Ok

We enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend.

We had a wonderful stay in the Studio. We went with four families and all had plenty of space and loved the garden, BbQ, hot tub and surrounding forest. Only 15 mins to the beach! Timo the host was great, very helpful and nothing was too much trouble.

This property is ideal for a large group of friends or family. It comfortably accommodated 8 of us across 3 generations, including 2 small children - a great kitchen, lots of sleeping, chill out and dining options, plus plenty of bathrooms! We lit the huge log burner each evening (logs provided) as a little chilly, which was lovely and cosy. The garden is large, mature and beautiful, with plenty of outdoor seating plus a bbq and firepit, and we made full use of the hot tub. Enough space too for children to explore and play, very safe. Communication with Timo was great, he was patient with our questions and responded very quickly. An added bonus was having the lovely Luigi cook us a fabulous Italian meal, he was great fun and so patient and kind with our 7 year old whom he had as his “sous chef”! Ringwood forest, moors valley country park and go ape are easily accessible either walking out of the back gate or a short drive. Parking is plentiful and safe as gated. All in all, a fabulous weekend. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that the property, although quirky, very clean and welcoming, is tired and in need of some tlc and maintenance in places.
