  • "This is the third time I've stayed, previously it was booked under my parents name (Mr & Mrs Wilson) it's become a family tradition."

    I can honestly say it is like a second home now, my parents and I always enjoy staying and this visit was no different. I look forward to our next visit.

    It's in a great location, there is a nice garden with trees and plenty of parking. Also it's very quiet at night with little passing traffic which is good for sleeping.

  • "We had the most wonderful few days in the corner barn."

    The setting is beautiful and the barn was so well equipped and beautifully clean. The beds were comfortable and the sofas were comfortable too. Lots of thought has gone into making the experience of staying there pleasurable. The property is surrounded by stunning countryside but central to reaching places like Poole and Christchurch both of which we visited. We have already booked for next year.

  • "The property is stunning and suited our needs perfectly (2 adults, 1 teen, 1 preteen and our dog)."

    The games room was very popular with our kids (and my husband!) and the garden area was perfect for the dog. It's in a perfect location too - we visited Lyme Regis for fossil hunting, Poole and Bournemouth, Sherbourne Old Castle and Durdle Door, all of which were around 30-40 mins away in the car. A highlight was visiting Dorset Adventure Park which is overlooked by Corfe Castle - we went on a very rainy day and it was really good fun even in the rain! I'm going to be recommending Corner Barn to everyone I know

    Hannah, thank you for your lovely feedback. You brought a smile to my face this morning as I read it. Thanks for your booking and so glad you enjoyed your holiday. Margaret (owner) Property Owner

    ). Extra bonus of having Podpoint charging stations for our electric car at a very reasonable rate. The only downside to our property was the kitchen and dining area were poorly lighted (we were there when it was grey and rainy) making it hard to see things such as settings on the toaster etc. and dingy to eat. The rest of the barn was lovely and light though. Highly recommend visiting the National Trust property Kingston Lacy and on a rainy day the local Royal Signal Museum.

  • "We had a great stay in Corner Barn."

    We stayed as 3 adults - my husband and I and my father in law, as well as 1 dog. Having 2 bathrooms was perfect though do note the main bedroom is not en suite. It is next to its own bathroom but not connected directly so you do have to go in to the main room briefly. I like a firm bed but I did find the main bed a bit too firm. A mattress topper would have made it much more comfortable for me. The cottage was amazingly equipped though - any cooking utensils you could want, more crockery than just for 4 people, full tea, coffee and sugar, a hoover, broom, mop and even laundry detergent and dishwasher tablets. I’ve never used so little of my own stuff that I’ve brought! The bridle path opposite the cottage leads up to a lovely woodland walk where you can find a war memorial hidden in the woods where a pilot lost his life in the war. If you’re walking your dogs up the bridle path, please do pick up your dog mess - too many people were leaving it, making it a bit of a gauntlet! Good location for visiting lots of the Dorset coast. We’d definitely stay again!

    The property was clean and extremely well equipped. I know not everyone cooks on holiday but if you do everything you needed was there - saucepans, cooking trays, casserole and baking dishes etc with enough crockery to wait to fill the dishwasher before putting it on! It was nice to have our own small enclosed garden outside the property too We did lots of walks from the property into the woods and along the farm tracks. Although we were inland, it didn’t feel that we were far from the coast either - around 45 minutes to the coast. We visited Lulworth Cove, Durdle Door, Studland Bay and Poole. We did a walk in the New Forest using the New Forest app which was great. We would definitely recommend the property and hope to return again soon.

    The site is well maintained, and private. Furniture is clean, leather suite well cared for, scandi style floors make care easy. Directions good. Would have liked an extra seat in the lounge area and the external benches are a bit pub garden uncomfortable. Would say the two singles arrangement is probably more fitting for a family than two couples, but all in all a lovely place.

    Needed to be not too far, (1.5hrs was a good target), needed to be dog friendly, with safe space for them at the accommodation area. This place ticked all the right boxes. And what a stunning little place! Finishings of a very high standard, very clean inside, very comfortable. The dogs were able to roam between the fenced-off garden and inside the accommodation without worry. Everything needed was supplied, with the bonus of a fireplace, enough wood for 2 nights, dishwasher, many various books, games room. etc. My only suggestion is perhaps to have an option to send £ rather than cash into an honesty box for the homemade jams, extra wood etc. (PayPal perhaps?) Can't remember when I last carried cash. Overall, I could go on and on with a review here, but that would be overkill. 10/10 recommended ... and I do think we'll be back again, very soon!

    The barn was extremely clean and despite covid measures milk, biscuits and tea, coffee and sugar were provided which was a lovely welcome gesture. Basic cleaning products were also stocked in the cupboards including washing up liquid, hand soap and tea towels. The barn is very spacious and the communal green space outside was a lovely safe area for our children to play. Unfortunately the games room was not open due to covid restrictions. Corner barn is set in a beautiful peaceful area. There is a nice pub just down the road in the village of Winterborne Stickland called the Crown, which was open on certain days. Seating was provided outside due to covid. A large tesco and other shops are only a 10 minute drive to Blandford forum. Corner barn was a great base for exploring the stunning Jurassic coast which was about a 40 minute drive away. We had lots of days at different beaches and enjoyed crabbing in Weymouth harbour with the children. We also went on a lovely walk up bulbarrow hill which is one of the highest points and has lovely views of the coast. I would definitely recommend staying here and would visit again as we had such a great holiday.

    We left a note to tell the owners to replace. The toaster had crumbs so had not been cleaned. We did not use it and used the grill instead. Also put this in the note. A few points that they might like to observe: They need to get stronger lighting as the open plan area was quite dark I ended up putting a bedroom lamp on the kitchen units! The slate shingle was difficult to walk on where the parking was its possible without strong shoes on to slip, sandals were difficult to walk on it. for your information: Hedge End is a good 4 miles to drive to so anyone wanting to be close to amenities might find it a drag to drive to Blandford Forum, there is no local shop now in Winterborne Stickland, I understand from locals the local shop closed down 2 years ago. Google unfortunately shows the shop! Apart from that we enjoyed our stay at the barn and the milk and cake when we arrived was a nice gesture.( I see below you ask would we like you to publish our feedback we have put the above for your information so they can correct the rusty tray and dirty toaster! so they might not want that on...

    It was larger than the photographs suggested (we couldn't find a way to capture the size in photos either!) and the owners had thought of everything. From a cake, coffee, tea and milk waiting for our arrival, to a comprehensive booklet of cottage information and tips on local places to visit, we wanted for nothing. The cottage was well-stocked with all basic household items, and there was even a hosepipe outside to rinse down a muddy dog after a day out. It made an excellent base for us to explore the area. The building seemed well-insulated so we didn't use the wood stove or electric heaters, nor could we hear any of our neighbours. All in all, a lovely place for a relaxing getaway. The TV has spare HDMI ports and the WiFi strength was perfect so we connected a tablet and had family movie nights in the evenings after long days of hiking and swimming along the nearby coast.

    The cottage came with a secure, fenced grass area (with a picnic style table) making a safe place for the dog to wander before his daily walks (great walking right on the doorstep too). The cottage itself was very comfortable, with everything you'd need for an enjoyable stay. We made use of the games room (Big Barn) for table tennis and billiards/snooker/pool (?) The cottage is well placed to explore both Dorset and Devon, although some of the country roads can be a bit narrow!. We'd love to come back with our daughters and their families, as it suits all ages (the play equipment in the Big Barn is great for small children) and families with dogs. The opportunity to buy rapeseed oil and flour produced by the farm was another bonus, as was the lemon cake and milk ready for our arrival. Thank you for a great mini-break!

    Usually we find there are items, such as washing soap, scourers, kitchen paper, not provided. Corner Barn provided just about everything we could need to make our week stay a truly worry free holiday. The appliances were all of a high standard, and felt new. Household utility items were all neatly stored. There was a well documented book of appliance instructions, and during our stay, we found the Internet connection always worked, and fast enough for our needs. It was sometimes the little things that impressed us. The well sourced water, free of chlorination, was great, either neat, or in tea. We had some nights of ground frost, and found the cottage stayed warm, even just using the electric radiators. With the wood burning stove suppling heat as well, things were really cozy. Did we have any problems? Well, we never got to grips with the wi-fi linked TV. The guide made it sound easy, but to be honest, most nights we preferred to read or watch a DVD, so we never tried that hard to understand the system. We had a lovely time. The mid Dorset setting, just below the Ridgeway, with loads of good walking straight from the front door was our main reason for booking. The dog loved the holiday as much as we did. Any suggestions for improvement? A hosepipe in the central courtyard, so dirty footware and muddy dogs could be cleaned would be appreciated. Perhaps there already is such a facility, but we never found it.
