    On arrival the appearance was beautiful, inside some of the lights were not working, when we took our bags upstairs the bathroom floor was wet due to the toilet leaking, a jug had been placed underneath to catch the water, which had now overflowed, issues experienced by us and previous holiday makers have still not been addressed which is concerning, this could be a wonderful place to stay, but at the moment it is not worth the amount of money that we paid, we have been on numerous holidays ...

    On arrival the appearance was beautiful, inside some of the lights were not working, when we took our bags upstairs the bathroom floor was wet due to the toilet leaking, a jug had been placed underneath to catch the water, which had now overflowed, issues experienced by us and previous holiday makers have still not been addressed which is concerning, this could be a wonderful place to stay, but at the moment it is not worth the amount of money that we paid, we have been on numerous holidays with sykes and have always been more that satisfied with the accommodation but this time we were rather disappointed

About the location

WHITCHURCH CANONICORUM

Bridport 5.4 miles.

Referred to as the capital of the Marshwood Vale, Whitchurch Canonicorum is an attractive mix of farms and cottages. Whitchurch Canonicorum is where you can find the very ancient church of St. Candida and the Holy Cross. It is unique in being the only parish church in England to contain the remains of an ancient saint. There is a well nearby, also named after the Saint, which is also rumoured to have similar healing properties. The attractive market town of Bridport grew up around the River Brit and was shaped by its extensive history of rope and net making. The long, wide streets and alleyways between the houses were once where the flax strands were twisted into rope, while today those streets are filled with an interesting variety of shops, restaurants and inns.

Note: Those with younger children should be aware of the garden stream, supervision may be required.
Note: Bedrooms are all linked with no separate access. Upstairs bathroom is accessed via bedrooms 1 and 2. Note: short staircase with no handrail
