The holiday couldn't have been any better, the property is presented perfectly and the workmanship is to perfection let alone the amazing customer service we experienced.
After numerous holidays in the same area paying more than this one or slightly less we always got the feeling that no one really cared and take it or leave it as there's no where else for you to go. We also had to highlight health and safety issues and missing important items and reminding places we were renting from that its not our job to check the inventory just because the last guests didn't complain you should be checking everything during the handover clean for the next guests to ensure its safe and has everything you're paying for as advertised.
But no not here, its clean, well stocked and there's other household items that are provided for your comfort. The property owners cant be any more helpful and friendly and accommodating if you want to ask about something and very understanding with the dogs which is important to us. Lets put it this way, if all my bedrooms and facilities were this good in previous jobs as a 4 star hotel maintenance manager I'd be well pleased. Why cant the other lettings around Swanage be as nice and as well ran as this one? I'm sure there is but for around £1000 a week you expect quality and this what Coombe Orchard gives.
When you take your dogs out its just out of the front door and round to the side on the drive through a gate, best keep supervising your dogs as there's wildlife the other side of the stone walls. This place is perfectly centred for travelling about and walks with your furry friends. Its just off the main road into Swanage, and just to note we were not disturbed by the traffic either. And bring some extra throws as your dogs will love the massive bed, i know ours did along with us too.
There's a lovely spacious bathroom with power shower which maintains the right temperature which also doubles as a bath with underfloor heating.
There's also plenty of instructions for everything and local maps for walks rather than being left to work it all out which is nice and thoughtful.
