What people are saying.

We loved our week at Greenbanks. We have stayed in many holiday homes over the years and loved pretty much all of them, but Greenbanks is an absolute star. The location is delightful and so quiet, which is great. The house is beautifully furnished and very homely. It is made extra special by the mentions and photos of Gt. Uncle Edgar and Aunt Marian and all the family books and furnishings. The kitchen is exceptionally well equipped with just about everything you need and all of it is high quality. You could even bake a cake if you really wanted to go that mad on holiday. Thank you to the lovely owners and to Nina and co for their wonderful care.

Five of us stayed in October including my 80year old parents. We had such a wonderful time. The location is stunning with sweeping views of the English Channel. The house is big and has lots of different spaces to get away from each other if you need to! Kitchen is fully equipped - you don’t need to bring anything. I also love that the house is still owned by family members, I wouldn’t ever sell it. It’s gorgeous.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay - fabulous location and very well stocked house right on the beach. The house felt so homely - more like someone’s home than a rental - great cafe/restaurant 20 mins walk down the beach.Our age range was 23 through to 88 - something for everyone.

Very spacious property in a wonderful location overlooking Chesil beach.

We have just enjoyed our second wonderful stay at this lovely property. The location is stunning and the house wants for nothing. Highly recommended.

Paul, January 2023

We just wanted to say what an incredible house you all have, and we had the best time! Can’t wait to book again. My family were blown away by it all.

Thank you.

Fantastic introduction to the property from Shirley. Beautiful property, clean & equipped with everything you may need. You can forget all your troubles when you are surrounded by such comfort and views out to sea. A few metres walk to the shingle beach and a great base from which to explore the surrounding area. Traveled with 3 generations, with party members aged 3-80. Visited Abbotsbury Gardens, the Swannery, Weymouth & Lyme Regis. Unable to get a table at any of the recommended eateries, so booking in advance recommended.

Emily, July 2022

This was the second time we have stayed at Greenbanks, and it didn’t disappoint! We were a family group aged between 14 and 86, and we all had a super time together.

Ruth, June 2022

It was the best house I've ever stayed in! We took my dad there for his 80th and he loved it.

Jim, June 2022

As ever, Greenbanks provided the base for a lovely family holiday. Its greatest feature is the location, which really has to be experienced to be believed. To relax on the terrace with its dazzling sea view, the only sounds being the soft shushing of waves on shingle and the song of the skylarks high overhead, is to truly appreciate peacefulness and calm. The house is very well equipped and provides flexible accommodation for a family group.

Anthony, June 2022

It’s our third visit to Greenbanks and its always such a wonderful place to spend a few days away. The house and garden have everything you might need - including the magnificent new Weber gas BBQ! Thanks as always for allowing us to enjoy your property... we will definitely be back again next year!!

Mike, June 2022

Our third or fourth stay now, so we love it. Secluded, great views, lots of room and character. Updated shower room and premium kitchen gear tailored for those who like to cook. Want to book for 2024.

Bob, April 2022

This really is the most fantastic location. Fabulous sea views, beautiful sunsets, rabbits playing on the lawn, great walks, quiet and peaceful but near lots of places to visit if you want to. The cottage itself is also wonderful - very comfortable, well-equipped, spotless - the pictures don't do it justice, even though they are lovely! Communication with the owners and their team was excellent, they were very responsive to any queries we had. On their recommendation we had a delicious Sunday lunch at the Manor House in West Bexington, just along the coast path from the cottage. I would recommend this as a great holiday destination to anyone, and really hope to be able to return some day!

We had a fabulous week – fantastic house – everything catered for. Some of us even went for a dip in the sea!! The location is incredible. Would love to come back sometime soon.

Ann, January 2022

The house was very comfortable and clean. Lovely location with sea views from all windows. Walks straight from the house onto coastal path and beach. We had a great week with family and a dog.

Paul, January 2022

Lovely to gaze out to sea whilst enjoying a book & coffee (or glass of wine)… The bed in the master bedroom was so comfy, our friends said their beds were comfy too. Loads of hot water. Would love to visit again.

Paula, January 2022

A fabulous property, very well appointed in an outstanding location.

Mark, December 2021

We all were very impressed with the property, clean, well maintained, and beautifully furnished. The views from all windows were stunning, log fires in evening, well equipped kitchen everything you could need. There was enough room for everyone to relax in comfort, hopefully we will return again.

Marylin, November 2021

It was a perfect place to stay - so near the sea, very quiet and plenty of room for 8 people to spread themselves. Also immaculately equipped.

Ruth, October 2021

Very comfortable house, have booked again in March!

Karen, October 2021

This was our second visit and it’s the most wonderful place. The location is perfect. The house is beautiful, you couldn’t wish for a better escape.

Angela, September 2021

Another lovely week at Greenbanks, you won’t beat this place for location or accommodation!

Chris, September 2021

Have been coming here for a few years, it is amazing, house and location. Wonderful.

Chris, July 2021

Staying at Greenbanks is very special indeed. The location and views are both spectacular and we were lucky to have glorious weather. There’s nowhere better to access the coastal path and Chesil beach. The house is very well equipped and loads of space for everyone, with comfy beds too! We would go back in a heartbeat.

Nicola, July 2021

Lovely house in a wonderfully secluded spot on Chesil Beach. We all thoroughly enjoyed our few days at the house and plan to return again!

Mike, June 2021

Another lovely week at Greenbanks, peaceful and relaxing as ever. Even the weather played its part!

Anthony, June 2021

Simply an amazing house in an amazing location.

Jim, June 2021

A wonderful property in an ideal location if you want to stay away from the madding crowd. Easy access, by car or foot (if you enjoy long walks) to West Bay and Abbotsbury. Great restaurants in the area. The house equipped with every single thing you could wish for, from games and cots for kids to cooking equipment. Great beds and comfy sitting areas. Magnificent views. We will be back.

Linda, May 2021

Perfect weekend stay for the family, beautiful house and scenery! Definitely be back again.

Aisling, May 2021

Magical place. Wonderfully comfortable and spacious property in a stunning location with fabulous views.

Anna, April 2021

Fantastic location, right on Chesil beach. Some amazing sunsets enjoyed. The house is really well set up, with all you need for your holiday, nicely furnished, with modern bathrooms. Pictures don’t really do the location justice, very special.

Natasha, April 2021

Beautiful property, well equipped with all amenities, very cosy and comfortable. The highlight was the location and if you looking to get away from it all, this is the perfect place.

Stunning house in a stunning location.

— Sarah, October 2020

The most wonderfully peaceful location. A place to relax, quiet and tranquil with the most amazing views.

— Angela, September 2020

As usual a wonderful stay and the accommodation is excellent.

— Chris, August 2020

Just back from our annual trip and already booked for next year. The location is hard to beat, a great spot for star gazing and fantastic sunsets. I’ve been coming to this spot since I was a toddler (50+ years) and I never tire of it. There is a new gate at the start of the track this year which kept the fishermen from parking up (& littering) - a welcome addition. The house is lovely and furnished throughout to a high standard. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you could possibly need. Very hard to find fault!

— Laura, August 2020

Greenbanks is a beautiful home in a beautiful location. Waking up everyday to those views makes you want to get up and get out and then when you are out you look forward to coming home again!

— Adrian, February 2020

Excellent and generously furnished accommodation in beautiful location. Most enjoyable stay in a house that is very much, but appropriately, a home from home.

— Simon, November 2019

“Lovely views, great location, beautiful house. 7th time for staying here, it never fails to amaze us. The views, the house, we all just love it.”

— Chris, July 2019

We love the house. Another great fortnight in Dorset. Have rebooked for next year. We liked the small changes you had made to the property and the housekeeper is always very helpful. Many thanks.

— Betzy, June 2019

A fantastic house with stunning views. Perfect for our family of nine with three generations.

— Linda, May 2019

A stunning location on the coast within easy access of all the Jurassic Coast has to offer!! The house has all the amenities you need to feel right at home. Plenty of space for everyone and if you are lucky you will be treated to a sublime sunset.

— Dan, April 2019

This property is gorgeous, the photos don’t do it justice. It is extremely well equipped, the kitchen in particular is very well stocked. The whole house is very clean and very comfortable, and much bigger than we expected. The location is amazing, down a remote coastal path, right on the edge of the beach. We watched some pretty spectacular sunsets sitting on the rocking chairs on the terrace. We loved our stay and would definitely go back.

— Kate, Feb 2019

The most beautiful house so homely we wanted to stay forever at Greenbanks. Amazing.

— Donna, December 2018

What a beautiful setting. We had a lovely stay at Greenbanks; the scenery is absolutely amazing and the house has everything you need - the local restaurant The Club House was also fantastic. Communication was excellent prior to our trip which was really helpful. We would absolutely recommend Greenbanks to anyone looking for a relaxing, quiet escape.
