    We loved the views, the living space, the amount of rooms, bathrooms, and the baby gate! Made it very nice for our large family to have enough space to be together, comfortably.

The Fairy tale Scandinavian-style houses at the Dorset Resort are very different types of buildings not often seen in the English Countryside. Made entirely from trees grown in the Nordic forests of Finland, these houses create a unique healthy living environment because the wood “breathes” whilst at the same time being a better insulator than brick. The homes combine simplicity with luxury, the natural oiled pine floors, walls and ceilings create a remarkably relaxed living space and all the furniture and fittings are of very high quality. People are able to rent periods from 2 days to 4 weeks in these wonderful homes, enabling them to spend quality time in this picturesque area of Dorset. All the houses are set in a quiet woodland glade surrounded by stunning fir trees and wonderful wildlife, birds, Butterfly’s and animals abound in this forest setting. The 12 Log homes are all furnished to the same high standard each featuring a Log Burning Stove, Balcony and Private Sauna to relax and unwind. A truly tranquil and unique experience whether your on a golf break or family holiday!
The Dorset Resort Team are here 7 Days a week from 8am to 8pm and want to help make your break a memorable one any way we can. We enjoy over a 70% repeat booking rate with some of our guests visiting us for up to 15 years consecutively. We look forward to getting to know you.
The county of Dorset is one of if not the best place to visit for a UK short break or holiday. From world class beaches, stunning wildlife and superb history Dorset has something to offer all ages. Situated conveniently and central is The Dorset Resort not far away from the breath taking Jurassic coastline of Lulworth Cove & Durdle Door, a perfect base for a break with every attraction easy to reach for a day trip. Not to mention Dorset 2 most visited attractions of Monkey World and The Tank museum are located just 2 miles away.
