This accommodation in a beautiful setting was ideal for our family of 8, and ideally located for all the Purbecks have to offer. There is ample parking for 3 cars. It is well equipped for those who wish to eat in. Aspects of cleaning require attention though.

Braeside is a charming coastal property in a stunning location, and we loved the beach theme in all of the rooms. Much thought had been given to providing a relaxing environment in which to take in the stunning views. There were so many thoughtful touches, like the numbered stones hidden around the garden for lively children to find. The well equipRead moreped kitchen provided everything we could possibly need to cater for a family Christmas dinner. Our grandchildren want to go back in the Summertime! Hide
