Leah made us a cup of tea when we arrived which was also a nice touch. We had a lovely breakfast lovingly prepared which we ate in the conservatory overlooking a delightful garden - thank you Leah The location is very convenient for us as we were catching a ferry from Poole Harbour so we would definitely stay here again. We would highly recommend Weston Cottage. 10 out of 10.
