The Coach House - Trinity Lodge

We really enjoyed our break at The Coach House.

The property is stylishly furnished with everything you might need for a self catering stay. The hosts are lovely and helpful and we very much appreciated the little hamper of goodies we received on our arrival Godmanstone is a good place to explore Dorset from. We particularly enjoyed the Symondsbury Holloway, Bridport (for quirky shops) and a trip to The very friendly Cerne Abbas brewery (essential!) If you like star-watching, by the way, the star-speckled night skies are an utter joy

ideal place for Dorchester and coastal areas, with plenty of walks just outside cottage.

very conftable beds. this place is very cosy, and would well recommend.

We would highly recommend staying here, it just close enough to everything you need.

A great base to start from and come back to . Chris and Pru are amazing and they have thought about the needs of the people staying with drying space , cosy furniture , and a lovely lay out to the accommodation.

Stylish comfortable apartment, everything that you need.

Lovely quiet relaxed stay. Friendly helpful owners

Excellent accommodation.

Very clean, everything you need for a great stay. In a lovely area, many places to visit and amazing beaches. The host , Chris was very helpful. We loved our holiday in this unusual accommodation and this beautiful area!

what a wonderful stay I had at the Coach House…it was the perfect getaway location, such a beautiful area and the cottage was amazing, comfortable and peaceful…and had everything I needed.

Many scenic walks right from the front door meant a very happy dog! A gem of a place

The cottage was very comfortable and ideally situated.

The Owners could not have done more to make us feel welcome.

We really enjoyed staying at this lovely spot.

It’s an ideal base for lovely day trips. The garden (with garden chairs under the tree) is a lovely bonus in warm weather.

We had an excellent stay and felt instantly comfortable and settled.

The subtle 70s decor reminded us of our childhood and felt quite nostalgic. Everything was spotlessly clean and well maintained and the bed is huge and super comfortable. The welcome hamper was a lovely touch and the best one we have ever had. Cerne Abbas is a very pretty village just down the road and the brewery is well worth a visit. Chris was very welcoming and helpful on our arrival and made sure we had everything we needed. We had a lovely chat before we left and it turned out Chris and my husband lived in the same town in the past! We would highly recommend the Coach House and are already looking forward to visiting again in the future.

Perfect little getaway for our long weekend!

Chris and Pru were lovely hosts and the Coach House is a lovely little private apartment with everything you need. Have to point out the bed had the softest sheets! And thank you for the little hamper welcome gift with Easter goodies! Jui x

Great property.

Very clean. Lovely welcome basket which was a nice surprise. Owner Chris was very approachable and introduced himself on our first day. Would recommend this property.

We had a lovely stay at the Coach House.

It was beautifully designed, and very well equipped. It was located in a very picturesque valley and we could hear the gentle sounds of water in the background as a little river went by the property. Chris and Pru welcomed us with a generous hamper full of goodies which added another very thoughtful touch to our stay. If you are a rambler you have amble tracks right on your doorstep without having to drive anywhere. We can highly recommend this lovely place!

This was a great find.

The place has been very beautifully decorated and fulfilled all my needs. It is spacious and well kept. The hosts also placed a very good basket of essentials in the kitchen. They were friendly and helpful and responded immediately when contacted. Thank you.

This is a fun place to stay.

The Coach House is cosy and comfortable, characterful and very clean. The owners have provided for all needs, including technological, and a delightful hamper of goodies awaited our arrival. The inland location is good for exploring the Dorset countryside and coast.

We had a very relaxing and comfortable stay at the coach house with everything we could possibly need.

We were welcomed with a beautiful basket of goodies which also included treats for our lovely dog. The owners were very pleasant and the property was close to many outstanding areas of beauty and wildlife. We Would definitely recommend this accommodation to family and friends in the future.

When we booked our stay we were looking for a quiet place to chill for a week after a very busy summer.

We also wanted to get away from November 5th celebrations which are intense where we live and seriously upsets our dog. The tranquility of "The Coach House" was perfect for this! We loved the layout and found it comfortably spacious for the two of us. We found the furnishing and decoration charming. We explored many of the footpaths in the immediate area and all were in good condition. We intend to book again.

Glorious weather whole week, friendly and considerate owners.

The comfortable accommodation has many thoughtful unexpected welcome touches and safe environment for our dog. Convenient parking. The location is ideal for trips inland e.g. Sherborne with fabulous Abbey (dog friendly) and museum, or to Hardy 'land' and further to Jurassic coast area. Scenery delightful and roads clear with easy passage, if narrow at times on side roads. Highly recommended.

Had a fabulous stay and were made very welcome.

What a brilliant hamper you left for us. It even included doggie treats! Very well equipped cottage and well situated for exploring the beautiful sights of the south of England.

My search for a nice place to stay while visiting the Dorchester area was surpassed by this little gem.

Lodge was clean and spacious with everything you need for your stay, also had Outside seating area with garden,the Lodge was easy to find with parking.village had nice pubs a short drive away and a lovely coffee shop within walking distance, if you like walking then the area had great walks with beautiful views overlooking the surrounding country side.so if you are looking for a place to stay while visiting the area I would highly recommend you book this lodge Thank you for a lovely stay tom & Sharon

Stayed at the Coach House, Godmanstone for 5 nights.

The cottage was great. We loved the retro style and attention to detail that Chris and Pru had done. Very well equipped and the enclosed garden ideal for our dog. The welcome hamper was also a thoughtful touch as it meant we didn't shop until the next day. We certainly hope to stay there again as it is a beautiful area and Cerne Abbas a little gem of a village. Thank you Chris and Pru for making our stay just right. Lesley & Roger

A lovely place to stay for two The lodge was beautifully decorated and had some fun quirky retro furniture All kitted out very well and didn’t want for anything Very good location for exploring Dorset and lovely walking from the door Chris and pru the owners were very helpful and friendly

We loved our stay in Trinity Lodge.

Perfect hosts. The accommodation was of the highest standard. Thoughtful welcome gift. We enjoyed beautiful sunny weather so also took advantage of the peaceful outside garden. Would definitely stay again

Thank you Pru and Chris for a wonderful stay at The Coach House.

The welcome basket of goodies on arrival was lovely. We loved the retro vibe and having a record player was great. Excellent location, very easy access to all locations. We would love to stay again.

Really enjoyed our stay at the coach house, property was wonderful and a credit to the hosts who were on hand but not intrusive .

Had lovely welcome pack on arrival and was met by Christopher who is a real gent.Thank you for contributing to our lovely stay.

We had a very lovely stay.

The converted coach house was beautifully designed, comfortable and very well equipped, right down to the dog bowls! Our old dog loved the box of treats left for her as did we - the welcome hamper for the humans was so carefully presented and it was very useful to be told in advance that we would have milk and bread. The home made jam , local beer, g&t and lovely little dish of butter etc were added delights which made us feel very welcome! The hosts were excellent- helpful, kind and charming. We would certainly recommend this to anyone who loves peace and quiet, beautiful countryside , near interesting places . The New Inn and Giant pubs in Cerne Abbas are well worth a visit.

This is a super place to stay .

Everything from the outstanding welcome pack to the decor ,comfort and attention to detail. Chris and Pru have provided everything one could need for a home from home in lovely surroundings. Thank you so much.

Loved this place and would certainly return.

The cottage is long and thin but there’s excellent use of space, especially in the kitchen area. There are multiple areas to sit and relax, work, read or eat all near windows, good light and heating. The kitchen is very well laid out and equipped for a small space and has a good sized freezer plus small dishwasher and oven. There is a good range of cooking and baking equipment and utensils, crockery and glassware. The décor is eclectic, furnishings hugely comfortable, there’s good hot water, towels, bed and bedding, lots of windows and natural light plus modern touches such as mood lighting, plenty of sockets and even USB ports. The friendly owners are nearby if you need them but otherwise leave you to your own devices. We were welcomed by a lovely basket of goodies that would have been plenty for a dinner, breakfast and even a lunch before getting to the shops. There is good heating throughout and a washer and a dryer are available for an extra charge if needed. We would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended.

Quiet, clean, comfortable twin beds, safe, good equipment, welcome breakfast pack, very helpful and friendly host.

Lots to recommend.

Lovely welcome basket when we arrived.

The lodge has been renovated well. Chris the host was very friendly and helpful.

Great place to stay.

Well located to access the south coast and the rest of dorset.
