Excellent stay! Would return!
Absolutely amazing stay in a gorgeous setting. I can't recommend the Belhuish Farmhouse enough! The location is perfect for many attractions and helps add a relaxing setting to any trip. 100% will be recommending to any friends and family that we have coming out this way.

Lovely peaceful farmhouse
Such a great farmhouse. Stayed for two nights for a friend's wedding nearby. Having breakfast cooked for us each morning was really lovely. We all enjoyed our stay and would recommend to others.

A two night relaxing stay in a beautiful location. The cottage had a wonderful feel and had everything we needed. Lots to see locally, the cottage was a great base. We are already planning our next visit. Rod, you were a wonderful host! We highly recommend the walk to Lulworth from the cottage, it’s worth it!

Good location, close to Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door. Our host was great, he made us English breakfast every morning using local ingredients. Told us about the local area and places to eat for dinner. The room was as described and it was everything we needed. We would differently go back again

The perfect base for exploring the Jurassic Coast
We had a great stay at Belhuish Farmhouse. The location was perfect for exploring the Jurassic Coast. The historic farmhouse was in a beautiful setting and we really enjoyed chatting with the owner and learning about the local area over our (delicious) breakfasts! One extra perk was the great water pressure in the shower after a big hike :-)

Family Dorset Break
A beautiful, rural B&B with plenty of countryside charm. Rod is an excellent host who makes a great English breakfast (& coffee) & made our family feel very welcome. The location is great for local walks & wildlife, & only a short drive to local amenities in Wool. Perfect for visits to Lulworth Cove & the rest of the Jurassic Coast. Our room was spacious enough for 4 (2x adults, & 2 young children) and well cleaned inc. very fresh smelling sheets/cosy bed. Great value. Pleasure meeting you, Rod!

Rod is a very kind host. We arrived late (aprox. midnight), but he had prepared our room. The farmhouse and its garden were breathtaking. The room was comfortable and clean. The shared bathroom is well equipped, in which modern and old styles are mixed. We loved being here. We recommend this accommodation for everyone, who likes to rest peacefully.

the location is brilliant lots of walks around and 6-7 mins drive to lurworth cove and 10 mins to nearest town for shops. Rod the host is a retired thatcher and full of interesting stories to tell at breakfast time. you have to pay for cooked breakfast but the included cereals and bread from local bakery were just nice enough.

Excellent host-Rod entertained us with anecdotes and lots of local knowledge on places to visit. He has top sense of humour and definitely very welcoming. The surroundings are serene and beautiful. Regarding cleanliness...there were lots of visible cobwebs around the corners of the rooms and walls..it is a pity as it is the only thing that needs attention however I canwsit to go again !

Response from Rod on 30 May,2023
Thanks for your feedback. Sorry about the cobwebs, unfortunately it’s something that comes with a 16th century farmhouse. We do clean regularly but you can clean them away daily but they still come back. Hope it didn’t ruin your stay and I hope to see you again in the future.

Family stay
We stayed to visit Bovington Tank museum, though traffic caused us to arrive very late, Rod (the host) we on hand, happy and helpful when we finally arrived. It feels more like visiting an old family member than staying in a B&B. Very personal experience and a pleasure to stay, especially over breakfast.

This accommodation is a wonderful alternative to characterless hotels. Everything was spotlessly clean, the bed very comfortable and the breakfast came with the lovely surprise of having it in a traditional farmhouse kitchen. The delicious food was complemented by the warm, homely ambience as well as the interesting chats with Rod about history, local places and also his adventures abroad.

Well Belhuish Farmhouse was very pleasant relaxing and enjoyable on the whole, a bit rustic so might not be to everyones taste, as slightly out the way but thats part of the charm and the farm house has that in spades, If you drive its no issue. The Farmhouse still looks and feels like you could be anywhere in time, from today or back 20-30 years. Rod the host is a very nice straight up fella and does a smashing poached egg on toast. My partner and I had a great time visiting various places that are within a short drive away, which for us meant cabs as we don't drive (Dorset bus services being a bit variable and not cheap) Still all attractions can be reached and cab drivers are friendly lot and not too costly and the Jurassic coast the scenery is beautiful (Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove especially) definitely worth it, do the coastal path walk. Lots of rural pubs that serve nice food and drink fairly local in Wool and Lulworth providing a friendly atmosphere in fact everywhere we visited; Lulworth castle, Monkey World Tank Museum all had the nicest most helpful people and the farmhouse is great place to go back to after the days visits to relax in a quiet tranquil country setting, sitting in the garden (with a beer) with just the noise of nearby sheep, cows, songbirds and a few chickens Rod has about the farmhouse, in a few words, the Farmhouse is friendly, pleasant, quiet, relaxing and enjoyable and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a break from city life.

Rod was a wonderful host. We felt really at home in the farmhouse. Our 5 year old chose it from viewing the photos on Expedia, and we are so happy he did. We had a three night break between Christmas and NY. We vsited the Tank Museum, Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door, as well as enjoying the local pubs and cafes for excellent food. We left feeling relaxed and rested and plan to book again when warmer weather arrives. The chickens in Rod's garden and pheasants in the nearby fields were a lovely added bonus for us. Rod is a wealth or knowledge and has many funny stories, which we thoroughly enjoyed. Altogether a relaxed, inviting and easy going stay for our family. Thank you very much from the three of us.

Pros: - location was very very good - has a nice bathtub Cons: - was not made to feel welcome by the host from the moment we arrived - was very noisy as could hear people speaking underneath our room, one night the host was having a bbq with friends directly outside our room when they have a HUGE garden but decided to have it outside our room. We got woken up MANY times during this which was not nice considering the host should be aware that we could hear everything. We felt that wasn’t very considerate. The room also smelt of smoke all night and the next morning (despite our window being closed) - no milk in the room for tea - host didn’t bother asking if we needed anything the entire stay / breakfast option / where breakfast was - lighting is off in the room and flickers

A lovely idyllic setting where you can relax and switch off, surrounded by fields and seclusion. Large garden was great for the kids, as well as horses, sheep and chickens for them to see. Room was spacious and plenty of towels. Owner was very friendly and welcoming too! only negative was no bath (just shower) in family room, which isn't ideal with toddlers..

Cosy farmhouse near Lulworth Cove & Durdle Door
We enjoyed our stay at Belhuish Farmhouse. Rod was a lovely host who made us feel welcome. We had beautiful garden views from our bedroom with an en-suite and the bed was very comfortable. The garden is large and is surrounded by fields. Moreover, the shower is powerful and the location is good; it is in the peaceful countryside and a short drive to Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door. It is close to the village of Wool which has a Spar shop and places to eat. I was happy with our stay but the WiFi could have been stronger in our room. To get a strong signal, we had to go in the hallway but it was nice to have a break from technology. The tv was also very small in our room. Overall, I would recommend staying here and I would stay here again if I was to visit the area in the future.

Thank you for your lovely feedback. Glad you had a great stay. The issue with the WiFi is noted but as we live in a valley and also in the countryside the signal is weak. We have tried a couple of providers but all have the same issue. Hope to see you in the future Take care Rod
