Having previously run a guest house for 13 years, we have moved from Dorset to the beautiful village of Kilmington in 2020. Linda used to be a nurse for many years and with her husband Cyril, enjoys meeting and looking after people from all over the world. We have dogs ourselves and the cottages are in a perfect setting for dogs to enjoy a holiday alongside their owners
