Lodge 14

In Lodge 14 the corner sofa, the TV and the woodburning stove share one open-plan room with the kitchen and dining table, so the whole day can happen in one space. The lodge has two bedrooms on a single floor, and it is on the outskirts of Corfe Castle.

The kitchen is equipped with an oven, hob, fridge and dishwasher, and the dining table is next to it. The rent covers bed linen, towels, fuel, power and a starter pack for the stove. One bedroom is a king-size with an en-suite bath and shower over. The other is a twin whose zip/link beds can be made up as a double on request. The remaining bathroom is a shower room with a walk-in shower, basin and WC.

Private decking has furniture, a barbecue and the hot tub. Parking is off-road, WiFi is included, and there is central heating. It is 2.8 miles to a shop and pub.

Dogs and other pets cannot stay, and smoking is not allowed. Anyone arriving after 6pm should phone for key collection. A cot and highchair can be provided on request, charged per stay, and infants count towards the party of four, so the lodge suits a family with an infant as well as a couple who want a hot tub and a barbecue on their own decking.
