Great location and property
Nice place and have been twice now but I have to be honest that I was shocked at damp and mould on walls/ceiling and around patio doors in back bedroom. No problems anywhere else in property with damp. If this property has a cleaner coming in to turn it around then I think they need to be spoken too, as when you look close it’s not great. I would return if things improved as it a lovely setting and location

Lovely little cottage, peaceful location with lovely walks for the dog. We all really enjoyed our holiday. Shame only one pub within walking distance but we travelled a bit further afield and found some very nice ones! Hot tub much appreciated 🙂

Amazing hidden away gem
A lovely gem of a place in an old style village with all you need, the property has all you need even for your dogs. lovely hot tub to soak in, some lovely local walks meeting the locals and there dogs. Local to Weymouth with a fantastic beach and the Jarassic coast just 15mins away. But overall we will be returning as like i have said its a gem of a place to stay with that little bit of luxury. See you again soon

Very pleasant little place to visit, cottage had more than enough space for my family of 4x good communication from host, lovely little village and nice local pub and shop where the people couldn’t do enough for you. Weymouth beech very close and Dorchester, had nice visits to both. Overall a very nice little trip just before xmas.

Great Holiday Cottage
Very clean and comfortable cottage. Owners very friendly. Great to find somewhere that really welcomes dogs, with added touches of dog toys, towels, throws. Gardens very safe. Great central location for visiting the whole of Dorset and local amenities close by. Certainly hope to return in the future.

Our stay
Excellent booking process overall stay very good. The 2 issues we had please bare in mind my mother is 83 and both blind and hard of hearing. It would have been useful to know about the steep pathway to the property and also the very steep steps in the back yard. But the hot tub was excellent we would come back just for that.
