'Cycling Active' magazine
Top cycling magazine 'Cycling Active' loved staying at Rosie, the Gypsy Caravan and Sam, the shepherd's hut on their cycling tour round Dorset.
"Arriving at the Old Forge we were immediately given a warm welcome by Tim and Lucy and their numerous dogs and horses (and donkey). Our gypsy caravan accommodation for the night kept the spirit of life on the open road while providing the kind of luxuries weary cyclists appreciate — a hot shower, pot of tea and roaring log fire."
