“The farmhouse accommodation impresses with its access to the Jurassic Coast, proximity to the South West Coastal Path, and gardens alive with animals; it's a place for families who love animals. I especially note the farm's 35 acres and the availability of fresh eggs and honey, showing a commitment to local produce; a taxi to Weymouth costs between £7 and £9. It stands out as an ideal spot for those seeking a blend of rural charm and coastal exploration.”
