"We had an amazing stay here, very comfortable beds and well equipped kitchen."
The conservatory could do with some sun shading and a fly screen , we rescued many bees and butterflies! We watered the courtyard and pots out front and enjoyed the fragrance from the flowers. Made to feel welcome in the nearby pub, shop and bakery.
Beverley,
Thank you for your lovely review, and so pleased you enjoyed the cottage and had a wonderful holiday. Will certainly look at a fly screen for the conservatory doors, as well as exploring some screens/blinds for the conservatory roof, especially if sunny summers are the thing of the future.
We are blessed to have these wonderful facilities in the village and so close to cottage too.

"Lovely historic cottage in a beautiful part of W Dorset."
Useful shop, baker and pub all very close.
We enjoyed the gardens, (and the strawberries), the kitchen was well equipped, WiFi excellent.
The stairs were awkward and the sloping floors, ceilings and low beams could make it challenging if mobility was limited.
Karen,
We were pleased that you enjoyed the cottage and the beautiful Dorset countryside.
I note your comments regarding the sloping floors, low beams and stairs, but these are pointed out in the description of the cottage. However, taking your point perhaps we need to review the description to stress these points.

It was like walking into the 17th century. For anyone liking that kind of building and we did it was amazing. One must remember to duck in the doorways but that’s being picky. A truly lovely holiday complimented by the pub over the road.

We loved the quirky mix of the old cottage with the modern kitchen diner. The gardens were relaxing and well maintained.

Quirky, interesting and comfortable. Such a shame the weather didn’t allow us to enjoy your beautiful garden. This would be a great place to stay in the winter with the aga warming and fires roaring! Took a while to get used to the water, being so hard. I even descaled the kettle. The Dorset water makes good beer though. :) The back door key was a little tricky. Had to really pull the door to turn the key. We also could have done with a spare front door key as all guests were adults and wanted to do different things. The beds were very comfortable and it was great having 2 areas to chill out. A real gem in a beautiful, friendly village. Thank you.
Julie, thank you for your valued feedback. We have taken on board your comments regarding aspects that require immediate action and will ensure that a second key is available in future, where appropriate.

The kitchen is very well equipped, and the dining room/kitchen/conservatory is a lovely space. Comfortable beds, a good shower upstairs, and many decorative touches throughout the cottage. The courtyard garden is totally secure - we have a small dog who is an escape artist but had no worries there. We went on day trips to Charmouth (found some fossils!), Hive Beach and Chesil Beach, all of which are dog-friendly in parts, just check online. Bridport market is worth a look. The White Lion pub across the road is very friendly and the food is good, can recommend the Friday night ribs. The Tuesday evening fish and chip van is great, worth ordering beforehand.

The house was spotless, very quirky and lovely touches such as the housekeeper leaving a pint of milk, tea, coffee, sugar for our arrival.
The gardens & surrounding area were beautiful, a great pub and local shop across the way and everyone was very friendly.
Unfortunately due to the one track roads we weren’t able to safely walk with our children but not a problem in the car; we visited Lyme Regis a number of times and the beaches were very clean. It’s a shame the parking was quite expensive; especially when we had 2 cars to pay for but we made the most of spending the whole day there when we visited.
All in all, was a lovely break and would definitely go back.

The garden is absolutely amazing. So lovely to eat outside on the secret terrace. The kitchen has everything that you need and we welcomed having a dishwasher and washing machine. The wifi was fine - which we needed with two teenagers. We loved the location - it is utterly beautiful countryside, with lots of amazing local walks. It's not too far from the sea and we swam most days. There are many houses and beautiful gardens not too far away and no shortage of things to do. We loved the local shop and stocked up on basics, but there are large supermarkets not too far away. The second downstairs bathroom was really useful, especially after coming in from the beach. I would very much recommend the New Inn in Stoke Abbott and The Anchor in Burton Bradstock to eat. Both lovely food.

The owners went out of their way to make sure that everything was ok for us, which it was and they were so helpful and friendly.
The 'Secret Garden' was a big surprise. We thought it was the courtyard garden at first not realizing the door at the bottom led into a much larger garden where we actually ended up spending a lot of time just chilling out.
We knew that we would be restricted visiting pubs, historic houses, museums etc. but still found plenty to see and do.
The Community Shop is a credit to the village, it caters for almost anything you may need; the local sausages were really tasty and there is so much more besides.
It would be nice to return when hopefully all restrictions have been lifted and we can fully enjoy all the attractions of the area.
More importantly we can restock on the ciders from Isaacs Cider Farm, just a few miles down on Bridport Road but they sell it in the shop as well !!

The upstairs bathroom was largely unusable due to shape of room; the sink was too small to brush teeth, the shower enclosure was too small and the ceiling above the toilet too low.
The location of the cottage was very isolated with a hours drive to reach amenities. Pub had very limited open hours which we would have like to be informed about before booking as this was a major selling point for us.
Our welcome pack wasn’t welcoming at all and more like a list of restrictions.

Heating is available to all clients and nowhere in the welcome pack does it state that it is not. There are also two log fires available.We have used the beds and found them very comfortable.The upstairs bathroom is small but useable.
