The Shippen♡

Guest review

7.0

Good facilities and environment. 30min driving time to the beach (Jurassic Coast), and supermarket.

− The cottage is advertised as dog-friendly, but we’re asked not to allow our small dog on the sofa and to keep the bedroom door closed, even though our dog never on the bed, which felt unnecessary and uncomfortable. We’re also asked to sort all bedding (sheets, duvet covers, pillowcases, towels etc) by category and whether they had been used, which felt more detailed than usual. the duck egg price on the window (£2.40) did not match what we’re charged (£2.80). Overall, a pleasant stay, but clearer and more consistent communication would improve the experience.

We truly enjoy our stay at the Shippen

We loved our stay at the Shippen. Lovely and well equipped house and welcoming host. Lots of things to visit around, and had a great time in the game room on rainy days!

Would stay here again in the future

Beautiful view from the lounge. Very rural atmosphere. The friendly hosts left a few welcoming items (eggs, some cake, milk and tea) to start your stay. The hosts also sell some farm produce - I recommend the sausages! Visits from the farms guinea fowl and the duck on the pond. Very well equipped accommodation.

− Bathroom steamed up easily and was slow to clear. You need to bring some toilet roll as only 1 roll is supplied at the start of your stay!

Superb

Quite rural retreat. Clean & spacious.

− 2nd bedroom was a little drafty through the external door.
