Reviews
"We stayed here for 5 nights in October half term with our teenage daughter & 2 dogs. The cottage has been very well converted & everything you may need is provided. The beds were of good quality & comfortable ( not always the case when renting a cottage!) & the kitchen had a good dishwasher & washing machine. There is a small enclosed garden which is also a bonus when on holiday with dogs as we were able to let them out in the morning without worrying about the road ( or getting dressed!) . Lovely walks opposite too. There are lots of places to visit , we loved Burton Bradstock & the Hive Beach Cafe (see separate review). We also went to the New Forest as our son lives in Southampton & we visited him a couple of times whilst there. Would definitely recommend this property."
"On arrival we found a wonderful courtyard of cottages, the whole outside area was very clean and tidy. On entering the cottage we found a cake, pint of milk tea and coffee, which was a lovely touch. The cottage itself is furnished to a very high standard with plenty of room. It is perfectly sited to explore Dorset with lots of lovely walks and beautiful scenery on the doorstep. You are only 1 mile from Winterborne Stickland which has a very friendly pub serving good food and a post office with small store. Everyone we have met was very friendly. A great holiday experience, we will definitely be returning"
"A beautiful, well appointed cottage which we would book again. The only downside from our perspective was its distance from the sea and local amenities."
