Sea Pink Cottage

The accommodation and its location were ideal.

We understand the best has been done while the development is ongoing. We have booked the accommodation for next year and hope that the access to the cottage is more straightforward.

This was our third stay at the cottage .

We like almost everything about it but especially the location. The bed is unbelievably comfortable! Even the entrance situation can have an advantage though it would help if the two heavy doors could be fastened back while unloading and departing. We've had key box trouble but maybe that's us and it can be sorted.

So happy with everything cottage couldn’t have been better we loved it didn’t want to leave will defiantly be going back thank you

This is the second time we have stayed and we loved it again.

It was clean, cosy and just what we needed. Close to Swanage to meet family and close to fields to walk the dogs. Welcome pack was lovely. We really enjoyed our time there. Thank you.

After some searching we found the cottage.

We weren’t expecting the building work close by . This being said the cottage was well equipped, clean, cosy and everything was aswe expected. From the description.it was a good base for exploring the area and we would recommend it to anyone. We will be back!

Really enjoyed this cottage.

Plenty of room for the 2 of us. Very clean and well equipped. It was a chilly May but the heating worked well and kept us warm in the evening. Good bus service and local pub. Had a lovely holiday. Would return.

Fantastic break and the property was perfect for our needs.

Off road parking, enclosed garden and everything that you needed was catered for. Lovely little touches such as pack of biscuits and milk in the fridge to welcome you. Perfect for our furry friend and the location was perfect for plenty of places to visit locally. The only criticism would be to buy a larger fridge and a more comfortable bed but literally everything else was perfect. Thank you Martin for renting your property out and keeping it up to such a high standard.

Lovely warm cottage which is well equipped.

We had an issue with the shower the first morning but Martin, the owner, came and fixed it the same afternoon. Martin was available by phone, and checked in to make sure everything was OK after the shower issue. There was milk and biscuits for the humans and dog biscuits for our dog. Sea Pink is situated on the main road through the village but it was not very busy. There is building work going on at the back, but again this was quiet. There are some good walks not far fro. The front door. We walked along the Priests way to Worth Matravers, past an old quarry where you can see dinosaur footprints. The kings arms just down the road serves lovely food.

Lovely cottage and very comfortable, and as described, but it would have been nice to know at the time of booking (rather than a few days before arrival) that there was a large building site adjacent to the property.

This affected access, as I had to go through an old empty school with fog and all my luggage to get to the cottage. The site was also not securely fenced, so my dog, or I, could easily have taken a wrong turn and fallen into the area under construction.

Lovely cottage.

Sofa is a bit hard but not an issue. Good facilities. Nice to have the enclosed garden. Great location

House was okay although dog don't like the floor too slippery.

Not very clean lots of cobwebs and cooker not clean. Sofa wasn't comfortable. No problem with works or parking. Not an easy entrance lots of steps,up and down.

Ideally situated in a lovely village location very near to Swanage.

The cottage has everything you need. Near to a great, friendly village pub which serves lovely food if you don't always feel like cooking. Really enjoyed our stay.

Nice accommodation.

Needs a repaint in places. Bathroom skirting needs a good clean as these were full of dust and dirt. Ideally it needs a better sofa as it was like sitting on a box.The only other thing was the door coming in to the entrance of the corridor leading to the property needs a key for the tenants for safety

We had a really great week at sea pink cottage.

.ideal location for brilliant walks on the jurassic coast. The cottage was very clean and the bed very comfortable. We found the area wasn't as noisy as stated the road being very quiet . The only drawback was the parking spot.as the spot given to sea pink cottage which was very bumpy .but you can park on the road after school hours (recommended).would stay there again if we came back to Dorset

This was our second stay at Seapink and I hope won't be the last.

Really we don't want to big it up too much as we want to find some vacancies in future! The accomodation works so well, the bed is super-comfortable but it's the marvellous location that makes it so right for walks. Along to Worth Matravers, down to Dancing Ledges, another great walk to St Adhelms head, then a day around Studland. A bus to Swanage if you wanted it. Or a walk there. We're used to the unusual entrance situation now and actually it can have its uses. Yes the parking could be closer but unloading and loading at the door is easy. We had a hiccup with the key box one evening and the unobtrusive closeness of the friendly owner is another asset. All in all a great cottage.

This is a lovely place to stay, very well equipped.

Quite a lot of building work at the back (which is buried a bit in the booking information). Not a problem for us as it was Easter weekend and nobody was working. However I would imagine quite a bit of noise when they are working.

Sea Pink was a lovely cottage for our stay and we understood about the building work before booking.

The builders had used our allocated parking space one day though. Cottage had everything we needed, was comfortable and we enjoyed the local walks with our dog. The Kings Arms is a lovely local pub too. We would stay at Sea Pink again.

The cottage is well designed and spacious for a small property.

Very comfortable and well appointed. A new sofa would be nice as you can feel the wood through the upholstery. The building works described in the listing were not a problem. It should be pointed out that for unloading on arrival there is a 50m walk to the cottage which is difficult luckily a lovely builder took pity on me and helped me carry all my stuff. The parking for the cottage is further 100m away but that's OK without luggage. In all a very pleasant stay.

Building site was mentioned so no complaints but it was a bit more intrusive than expected.

Good to watch. Great local pub.

Great location and a lovely light and airy living space, so we would definitely like to return.

That said, we do feel the price is still quite high, considering the access/parking/noise issues while the building works continue and we would also hope, as a basic courtesy, that Sykes/Dream Cottages could ask the owners to address some of the other ongoing issues, some of which have already been pointed out previously eg. 1. Could do with a casserole dish with lid. 2. Better power shower (especially as no bath). 3. Proper freezer space (ice box ok for short stay but not for a week). 4. Minimal welcome pack (eggs and bread are usual these days as well as the milk and biscuits) 5. General cleanliness - kettle hadn't been descaled in ages, nespresso machine not emptied. Don't mind the odd carpet stain and a few scuff marks on walls, but also noticed several dusty surfaces, cobwebs and dirty skirting/ceiling filter in bathroom. Hope this is all helpful and fingers crossed much of this can be addressed before our next stay, as it is a really lovely cottage!

The cottage was clean and cosy.

As it was February we didn't use the garden, so the ground works didn't bother us too much, but it was interesting that there were no tissues nor any kitchen rolls for us to use to keep everything tidy! We know the area very well and it is well situated for great walks.

The accuracy of the description was good.

This is particularly important given the current temporary access route to the cottage. From a few reviews it appears that some guests have not paid due attention to the warnings. We had no problems. Cottage is well and stylishly fitted, very comfortable and clean apart from the oven.

Initially apprehensive to find my way to the cottage and where to park,but on arrival everything so plain and simple .

parking obvious ,route to the cottage clear and precise,very well set out and organised.inside the cottage was like new.tastefully set out.pictures on the walls maybe indicated the owners were fellow travellers explorers, .There was a picture of the Great Ocean Road( The twelve Apostles) in Australia.A lovely touch ,a picture with Wanderlust, which is my motto ,saying, well that's me,having spent the last 36 years on various expeditions around the world.Also Wanderlust is on the back of my campervan.i had no idea where , langton Matravers was,in relation to anywhere in Dorset, but fate landed me in exactly the perfect location and perfect cottage and basecamp to explore.Every where I wanted to go was close by. Absolutely perfect sojourn.

Initial dismay- took a while to realize first door was open and then cottage key box hard to operate.

And of course the building site. .... But after that everything was fine, so comfortable and in such a great location for the walks we'd come to do. We would be glad to come back.

Sadly we were very disappointed.

Whilst the listing mentioned building work nowhere did it say how bad and dirty it made the cottage. The entrance is disgraceful and unsafe. The parking is ridiculous and so muddy. The reduction in price was an insult. The garden furniture is filthy as are the inside windows. I took pictures of how bad it was but nowhere to post them. Certainly nowhere near a dream cottage.

We were pleased that the entrance to the property was less arduous than as described in the instructions.

The lane was extremely pot holed. A dishwasher would be an asset. Mugs were difficult to Clean, some had stains difficult to remove. The tiny freezer compartment was unusable.

Lovely cottage, really comfortable stay with everything you need.

The instructions for finding the property from the parking area could e clearer but not a big problem. Would happily return.

Very nice place to stay , close to swanage town centre so everything we needed was available, just a shame no mention of the building site behind us , but overall a very nice stay

It was a lovely cosy cottage.

We were welcomed with a basket of scones and jam (cream in fridge) and dog treats. Cleaning stuff was there, soap and toilet rolls. All bedding and towels. We covered the sofa with blankets and towels and used our own duvet as were worried about dogs jumping on them. The lady we spoke to said it didn’t matter they were used to dogs but thanked us for caring. We loved that there were beautiful walk just across the road - dancing ledge, wild meadows. Everyone we met there was very friendly and we would certainly go again and hopefully the new houses will be finished.

We booked Sea Pink as a last minute get away.

We booked on the day of arrival and were pleasantly surprised that even with the quickest of turn arounds we still arrived to a lovely clean cottage with a nice welcome hamper including a treat for our dog. We can agree with other reviews that the cottage is a little difficult to find and the instructions could be a little clearer and they seem to only detail from one direction. We came up from Swanage. We were fully aware that the area was being developed as this was clear on the website but this didn’t affect our stay. Noise was minimal while we were there and we hardly noticed it. The area is beautiful with walks suitable for all abilities. The Kings Arms is a lovely pub just a few minutes walk down the hill with a great selection of drinks and food. The village does lack a shop for any bits and pieces. Yes the pub does serve this but only during the day but we didn’t see any evidence of this. All in all Sea Pink was perfect for us. Both ourselves and the dog found it comfortable and had everything we needed. The local butter was a nice touch!! We would have left a message in the visitors book but the pen had run out

Property is nice and clean.

The area is lovely. The access to the cottage is a disgrace to be honest. Nobody would rent if you show the access on your advert. I wouldn’t pay more than £100 per week if I’d have known. Being on the edge of a building site didn’t go down well with the wife either. Barry.

Very disappointed with exterior of the cottage, as access was difficult and directions to get to the property were not as per website.

The garden of the cottage is a building site, which was not expressed in the description on line. Also access to the cottage itself is not very easy, car is parked some distance away and access involves going through an old run down wooden door, through an old school reception hall, going down some narrow steps, down some more steps and then to entrance of the cottage. Cottage itself was lovely, but everything around it was not. Cottage not that clean either which was disappointing. over all ok for few days as a base but not for a long stay.

Loved the cottage and our miniature dashound enjoyed it he garden, sooo disappointed with the he building site but these things can't be helped and we didn't let it spoil our holiday.

Cottage needs an indoor back door mat, one dumped outside is growing grass and a mixing bowl would have been useful otherwise cottage was well stocked, bed very comfortable and I am sure the pillows were filled with clouds as they were sooo soft. We will be back again one day so we can see what happened to the building site, and have another lovely holiday.

We had a lovely time and the cottage is ideally located in Langton Matravers to explore the isle of Purbeck.

There are regular and reliable buses from the village to Swanage, Corfe Castle, Poole and elsewhere. The cottage is nicely designed though visitors should be aware that the shower isn’t very good as it leaks from the hose and so you get not much than a dribble. There is no freezer and only a small ice box in the fridge, which doesn’t close properly and is consequently too iced up to fit much in. The WiFi is sketchy so you have to be patient with that. Cleanliness not great - floors not properly cleaned and found half eaten biscuit under the sofa and had to wash the crockery as had food remains still on them. It’s good that we knew about the construction before we went but it inhibits sitting in the garden on a nice day due to the noise in particular. Plus there’s a smell of wee so maybe there’s a septic tank nearby. There was a nice welcome gift on arrival, which was appreciated. We booked through Sykes and although we had a good time, in general we have come to expect better from a holiday cottage booked through them.

Very difficult to access property especially with cases etc , parking 100 yards away .

No drinking glasses to speak of. TV did not work despite rep calling in to try help . Left some clothes in draws by mistake but had no reply after two messages sent to recover them . Pub too far to walk . Cosy little cottage , warm etc. dog was happy .Bathroom fine . Sadly this one was not for us , two pensioners .

Lovely little cottage.

Perfect for our needs. Great garden for our dog as well.

A lovely property BUT: - the property sits within and is directly severely impacted by the building site and the access arrangement to the property via a derelict, dirty other building that adjoins.

This fully detracts from the property experience. -the access building is not secure as it is open to the public as both doors are not lockable - anyone can enter - how safe is this? - what are the fire safety arrangements as there is no other way out as the derelict buildings are attached and the building site adjoins? - keeping long lawn grass for wildlife is applauded but what about recycling- only one bin provided - but we must recycle into 3 bins - as you state in the information pack and as we all should? not environmentally friendly sadly. We tried our best with sorting in our own bags in the living room - not ideal. - the TV didn't work - only on our netflix account and we reported this but heard nothing - Wi Fi kept dropping out - it is clear parking is an issue being distant and with the unpleasant access through the derelict building not easy/nice. Clearly all concerned with the letting know that the access and parking arrangement won't work until the new development is complete and bays for the rental properties delivered next to them. Years away? In the meantime the arrangement is not acceptable as others have said previously. I have a video and I am happy to share with future bookees so that they really know what awaits them and informs their decision to book this property. When all of the adjacent building work is complete and access and parking sorted out this will be a fabulous property to rent but not til then. Happy for you to discuss the return of some of our monies as we feel this would be reasonable.

It was nice.

However, we weren’t told that we would have to go through an abandoned/very run down construction site building to get through to the cottages. This was difficult as my partner is disabled. We also were sitting outside and saw a rat go under the wood patio which was obviously alarming. The cottage was beautiful and the design inside was great and allowed a cosy vibe.

AVOID, if you don’t want to stay on a building site.

This property should not be let whilst all the building workS around it are continuing. 19 new houses and flats are being built in the adjoining building and on the land at the rear of the cottage. It was impossible to find the entrance as the instructions were so out of date. The builders kindly showed us how to gain access as you now access the property through the adjoining derelict building. You have to walk down mouldy, dirty corridors with steps to come out on a rough uneven path at the rear of the property. None of this is detailed on the listing. Parking is also an issue. The gravel area is a fair distance away and very badly signed. If you park in the lane you receive rude notices on your car by the opposite house. So the only option is the main road. This should not be currently let or at least described with updated information clearly detailing the current building work which will only make the situation worse as it progresses in time. If we had been made aware of the building works we would have booked another property and feel Skye’s are at fault over this.

Lovely comfortable cottage.

We enjoyed our stay. There is a lot of building work going on around it which distracts from the holiday atmosphere. Also we are an older couple and there are two steep steps from the living room into the bedroom which we personally found difficult although this I’m sure would be no problem to most folks.

Great cottage- even better when building works complete.

Would have liked blue washing up cloths and a sponge dish scrubbers. Foil and cling film would be good and some smaller glasses.

Entrance to cottage quite confusing.

entrance was through scaffolding poles Looked quite off putting.didn’t look like the entrance to a holiday cottage.

Booked this cottage as stated one level which was not the case as steps into bathroom.

Our mobility is very poor. The building site and noise . The unkept pathway and the gravel is not safe for limited mobility .

Really clean wi fi very slow , the building work at the rear is far worse than web site suggests , it is major earth works with heavy machines working , the dust was really bad my car looked as if I parked at a quarry , apart from this cottage really nice we went out most days to get away from construction site , the surrounding countryside is beautiful .

Lovely , comfortable cottage.

Ideal for one or two. Current building works are a nuisance and temporary parking was inconvenient but were manageable and didn't spoil a pleasant week. Okay for the dog and plenty of easy walks from the door. Village shop and pub a real asset, pub meals simple and excellent..

Finding the area was fine, locating the cottage was a challenge, with all the building work that’s going on in the area, you have to go down 5 made up steps, along side a narrow gravel path walk way to the back of the cottage garden.

The lawn was overgrown, I know they would cut it if asked, but it looked a mess. Inside was nice, good kitchen, and lounge area, but the sofa could do with new cushions as they worn and have lost their shape, not comfortable anymore. Stairs to the bedroom are steep, could do with a hand rail on one side, bathroom very nice, overall a nice cottage with all you require, I personally think once the outside building works, parking, and paths are completed it’s a nice place to stay.

The only drawback was car headlights during the night - blinds or black out curtains on the bedroom window facing the road would be helpful.

Otherwise, this was a fabulous cottage in a fabulous area - thank you.

lovely place to stay, very clean and roomy in an ideal location for exploring around swanage, would stay again.

Nice comfortable stay.

Good location for doggie walks. Shame about the building site opposite . (We did no in advance ) . luckily no noise from it during our stay. Definitely needs secondary glazing as traffic very noisy . We were considering a visit next year , but looking at all the work that will be going on I think it's unlikely. Also prices have jumped up quite a lot , considering that at certain times there's definately going to be disruption.

Excellent cottage which is well looked after.

Very suitable for a dog as well as us.

On first inspection the property was clean tidy and well maintained.

However in the bedroom we noticed black dog hairs on the carpet, the problem turned out to be the hoover, an amazon basics, we does not work on the carpet, l tried the broom, but that did not work either. There are two recommendations which need to be addressed, one is the step leading down to the lounge, it needs to be changed from laminate flooring to carpet, as it can be quite slippery. And also the bed is on a slope so that needs to raised up one end.

A beautifully renovated cottage.

Everything provided for. Super comfortable bed. Nice position for visiting places of interest in the area. Would recommend.

We loved our stay, the owners were friendly and welcoming and the cottage and its garden and patio area are charming.

During our stay the area was quiet and there was no building work. We saw deer in the fields a little further along the lane, our dog was in seventh heaven! There are many footpaths in the immediate vicinity of the cottage and a wide choice of local attractions to visit. We also made the most of the steam railway and visited some of the historic pubs in the area to sample the local ales.

Lovely cottage.

Clean. Good sofa, kitchen and bedroom. Bed uncomfortable. Road right next to bedroom not great, with noise from traffic. Pictures are misleading. One would not know that cottage is by main road and by demolition site. Would have been corteous to take a chunk of price for this reason. Great location for people who like walking and for pets. Thank you

Overall disappointed with this cottage.

First impressions make a difference - a fridge with a freezer compartment blocked and full of ice, instant coffee solid in its container, an untidy garden and approach path with numerous weeds. The external picnic table also needing renewal. To be fair the owner responded but a holiday arrival should not require such dialogue. The property was clean and well prepared otherwise. To benefit future users I would suggest the stay experience is enhanced by renewing faded towels, the provision of kitchen towel roll and dispenser, a coffee press cafetiere, a wider range of drinking glassware, a salad bowl and a shaving mirror. The wardrobe was full of cleaners equipment which precluded its full use. The property does suffer from road noise and the road facing windows at least need better glazing.

The cottage itself was lovely, suited us perfectly, was cosy & clean & comfortable bed.

Unfortunately, at this present time, the surroundings were not good at all. It was, quite literally, a demolition site with flashing orange lights 24 hrs shining in bedroom & seating/kitchen area. Not a pleasant outlook, so no incentive to sit nor eat outside at all. As regards facilities, a small dishwasher would have added to the holiday relaxation. Would not recommend it while construction work is underway.

This was not the quiet idyll that we wanted for our holiday.

Let's start with the positives. The cottage was well equipped and just right for what we needed for 2 people and our dog. The cottage is perfectly situated for those who want a walking holiday. It is about a mile to the South West Coastal path and inland footpaths as well. It was a nice surprise to find a welcome afternoon tea as a gift from our hosts, thank you. Unfortunately...... the view from the cottage garden was of a large mound of crushed concrete measuring approx 20 foot high, 50 foot across and 40 foot deep. This rubble was obviously from a recent demolition of buildings that were nearby and was certainly not expected by us. This obliterated our view of the Purbeck Hills. The property directly next door is virtually derelict and due renovation which has started. The south face of the property had scaffold erected during our stay. This together with the mound of crushed concrete was not pleasant and certainly not what we expected from our holiday cottage. The cottage is actually situated on a main road and traffic passes within a few feet of the indoor seating area and bedroom. The traffic includes double decker buses, cars , lorries and the usual farm traffic. At times it felt that vehicles were coming through the wall! The positioning of the cottage also meant that persons walking past on the road footpath could be heard word for word. This was even the case well into the night (3am) with persons chatting loudly on their way home from the pub together with the smell of cannabis permeating through the window frame cracks. We do realise that all of the above is not the fault of the owners. We should have had knowledge of this so we could cancel. We wont return.

We had some disruption due to building work, but the owners were very supportive, and it did not really bother much However, we did find s shortage of pans, and some other cooking equipment.

Not bad enough to spoil the week. All in all a excellent holiday

Fantastic little cottage in a lovely village.

A great base for exploring the area

2 weeks prior to arriving was informed of "building works" on Old Malt House Lane which would affect car parking but not our holiday.

..... turned out to be a demolition site right beside the entrance and garden to the cottage, spoilt view, dust and noise... found out being demolished to build 19 new houses so work will be going on for some time!!! If it hadnt been for the coastal walks etc would have left early. Very disapointed was not informed of this.

Great find Beautiful small cottage in a great location We went over Easter weekend which meant no building work I’m not sure how quiet it would have been otherwise as it looks like major building works taking place.

Sea Pink cottage is a great location, it is just over 2 miles from Swanage The cottage was very clean, warm and nicely decorated.

At the moment there are building works going on in the main house which did not disturb us at all. The garden is enclosed and very suitable for our young beagle.There is good Wi-Fi connection and good phone signal, a good telly with Netflix etc and a radio. There is a washing machine and well equipped kitchen. A cream tea was left for us which was much appreciated The only problem was the noise from the cars and buses going passed the bedroom and sitting room windows. Maybe some blackout curtain liners in the bedroom could help. Over all we really enjoyed our stay here and would recommend a visit

Lovely cottage, beautifully renovated and very comfortable.

Conveniently placed for exploring surrounding villages and Swanage. The passing busses amused us rather than annoyed. Perhaps people would prefer to know it backs onto the main rd? Really enjoyed our stay and would recommend it but will mention being on the main rd. Many thanks Donna and Mike.

This was one of the best UK cottage stays we have ever had.

Sea Pink Cottage was quite spacious (nice high ceilings) but still really cosy and beautifully warm. The bed was super comfy and most inviting! The cottage was very well equipped with everything we could want and the instructions provided were extensive and helpful. The location is perfect - so close to the Coast Path for exercising our dog and with the local pub a short walk away. The small fenced garden was also a great advantage for our dog and would be lovely on a warmer and sunnier day than mid January offers! Would definitely return.

Sea Pink Cottage was amazing, there were lots of walks from the door.

We can't wait till May when we will be visiting again.

Clean, cosy and comfortable little cottage.

There was some road noise due to the cottage being next to the main road through the village and having single glazing. The cottage came well equipped although one small toilet roll did not last long, future visitors should be advised to bring their own supply. We had a welcome note from the owners with a bottle of milk, some lovely local bread, biscuits including one for the dog, however, it would have been good to know that the faulty cooker hob was awaiting replacement rather than us having to report it to them, and then discover they already knew….we had another issue with a radiator but that was soon solved the same day. The bed was extremely comfortable , with good pillows and bed linen. The village was well located for walking in the countryside to places such as Dancing Ledge, Worth Matravers (fantastic pub) and even Swanage could be reached via a track called The Priests Way. The Kings Arms in the Village offered the usual pub grub and lovely snug bars with real fires. We also visited Studland with it’s beautiful clean beaches, wild and peaceful nature reserves.

All in all the perfect base to come back to

Fabulous cottage let down by road noise and also headlights through thin curtains.

Beautifully furnished, clean, warm and well equipped with a very comfortable bed but single glazed traditional windows in both rooms face right onto a road to Swanage. The website map marker was on the wrong side-road and does not show the proximity to the road. The directions were very poor for arrival in the dark, without even the private road's name on the address. Pretty views across fields. Kind welcome provisions of milk, bread, biscuits and tea & coffee.

Lovely place to stay and lovely walks to go on.

Had all you needed in the property. Would definitely book again. Took our dog so very suitable for him and enjoyed the long walks. Though was a little disappointed with local pub only went in once and probably wouldn’t go again. Also the times to book in which was 5pm and to be out by 10am on leaving day. Feel would be better for 3pm and perhaps 11am to leave, understand re COVID though feel it dies need 7 hours cleaning time as you leave as you find and even a deep clean wouldn’t take that long with the size of property. Ending on a positive gorgeous views and really enjoyed our stay

Lovely clean cottage in great location for waking from the door.

Extremely comfortable bed and great pillows. Would have been good to be able to arrive a bit earlier, 5pm seemed very late in the day We had a fab time.

The bed was so comfy, didn't want to get out of it.

A compact but clean and cosy cottage with everything you need. Also private and not overlooked, peaceful and a three minute drive to the nearest beach.

Great cottage, good position in the countryside which help with early morning dog walks.

Located near to many tourist attractions and cliff top walks.

Lovely, spacious cottage, well equipped and in a good position to explore the Purbeck area.

Everything was as described and we enjoyed a relaxing time including sitting in the pretty, private garden.

We spent a thoroughly relaxing fortnight during August/September at this splendid cottage that has been tastefully converted.

It is well equipped and furnished to a high standard and is light and airy for a small cottage. The high ceilings and large windows at the front add to this effect. It is also very well maintained. The garden that is accessed round the rear of The Old Malthouse and is the main entrance to the cottage is pleasant and spacious and also very peaceful. We had our golden retriever with us and were fortunate to have good weather throughout our stay. If he had needed to be washed (which he didn’t) before going indoors there was a tap available on the Malthouse building although a hose and adapter would be needed. The walks directly from the cottage are numerous and those particularly towards the coastal path are a treat with glorious scenery in every direction. We holiday in Purbeck regularly and have done for many years. It never fails to deliver. We can certainly recommend this cottage for a happy vacation. Nick & Caroline, Suffolk

The cottage itself is well presented tastefully.

Has everything you will need for your stay well stocked kitchen. Love the personal touch of a welcome basket with Artisan bread and cake. The treats for our dog went down well, and a couple of pods for the Neprosso machine was also a great thought. The cottage us situated in a great location for walks and local attractions. Thanks for a lovely stay we would highly recommend this cottage and will be back

A delightful cottage situated in a lovely village with an extremely helpful and friendly host who lives nearby .

The cottage is spotless , has everything that a couple could possibly want and is ideally located for visiting many of the beautiful and interesting sites in the area such as Corfe Castle and Durdle Door. There are also countless wonderful walks in the area.
