A super short break

c1j3h4 Berksire
Review Submitted: October 8, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
We had a long weekend break in Studland with two grandchildren, under 3, and their Mum and Dad.

It was a wonderful holiday in a great area with loads of things for us ALL to do.

The closness of the beaches was a great advantage and we manged with buggies!

Vine Cottage was lovely and it suited our gang prefectly and we all felt immediately at home. A close all providing little shop was another added bonus and I got lots of walk with the 3 year old

Magical Stay in Studland

Birthday-Gal London
Review Submitted: June 10, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
I spent my birthday weekend at Vine Cottage in Studland with 5 friends and had a fantastic time. We loved the old world charm of the cottage (which was very comfortable and well maintained) and found Studland the perfect holiday retreat. If getting away from it all is what you're after I would definitely recommend.

If you're after a treat I would recommend trying the tea and scones at the Manor House down the road, where you can relax in their garden and take in the views.
