Mrs Barreno
August 2020

“Toll Lodge in Frampton, Dorset was a perfect home form home for a small family, plus our Springerpoo dog Millie.”

It felt very Covid-19 safe (key safe was a great idea!), was super clean and had everything you'd need - even a toastie sandwich maker and thermos coffee cup!

It felt very Covid-19 safe (key safe was a great idea!), was super clean and had everything you'd need - even a toastie sandwich maker and thermos coffee cup! The garden was enclosed and safe. Lovely spot in the sun to relax in - we were lucky with the weather. Perfect location for town, county and Dorset's great beaches. Dorchester is a short drive away and there are some great pubs and country walks close by. We had a brilliant week in Dorset and came home with lots of lovely memories.

Miss Teale July 2020

“The cottage itself was comfortable and well kept but the kitchen was exceptionally equipped with everything we could possible need.”

We had a very relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Mrs Clarke October 2019

“Toll House was very warm and comfortable.”

One minor point, the bathroom was quite small, the bath awkward to get in and out of. Apart from that it proved to be an ideal location for exploring Dorset.

- Mrs Clarke, October 2019
Mr Robinson September 2019

“Toll Lodge was just like walking into your own home, the furniture and beds were very comfortable and small items such as washing up liquid, tea towels, bedside clocks etc were all there.”

- Mr Robinson, September 2019
Mr Ian Smith June 2019

“Very well furnished and equipped.”

The Wi-Fi was rather erratic but we were fully warned that this would be the case. Excellent - nothing more to say!

- Mr Ian Smith, June 2019
Mr Jackson May 2019

“The cottage was clean and well-appointed and better than expected We received a warm welcome from John & Karen when we arrived and they were on hand to help in any way they could.”

. It has been a great location for exploring the Jurassic coast and National Trust properties and we have had some great days out. We booked the holiday last minute because the weather seemed settled and we have not been disappointed..

Dr Graeme Davis Sep 2018

“Booking process worked well & your instructions are clear.”

Toll Lodge provided high-quality accommodation, and was very clean and well-presented. It's all on the level save for the front door step in (so great for anyone who might struggle with stairs). There is a small back garden accessed by stairs. Parking is right outside the door. The location is great for a car-based touring break in Dorset. Stayed July 2018

Mr Jordan Sep 2017

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Toll Lodge, which was very comfortable, and furnished and equipped to a high standard.”

We also felt that the cost was reasonable. The property is in a quiet village, yet easily-placed for Dorchester and the Jurassic Coast, as well as for trips to inland attractions. Highly recommended! - Stayed September 2017

The property

Toll Lodge is a charming two-bedroom ground floor annex set in the lovely village of Frampton in Dorset and the owners live close-by. Welcoming open plan living area with kitchen and dining room will make you feel cosy in this beautiful country cottage.

Relax by the wood burner and sit together in the evening. The property is surrounded by wonderful rolling hills with many paths and bridleways for walker’s pleasure.

Even though Toll Lodge is situated on the main road, it’s a quiet village. The property will suit to cyclists as there’s a cycle path from Dorchester to Maiden Newton that runs through the park from Grimstone to Southover to Frome Vauchurch.

Around four miles from the property you will find a county town of Dorchester with few museums, array of shops, restaurants and farmers markets.

The traditional high street is peppered with popular shops that are complimented by lanes with charming boutiques and antiques. Seaside town of Weymouth is a short drive away too that would make a great day out.

You can bask in the sun all day or browse through the town centre shops and look for souvenirs to bring to your loved ones. West Bay is 9-mile drive away with sand cliffs and lovely walks either along the sea on the beach or along the clifftops. 30-minute drive East will take you to famous Dudle Door and Lulworth Cove with beautiful Purbecks and Corfe Castle further. Whatever the season, Toll Lodge is a wonderful getaway for small family or couples.

About the location

Frampton

Frampton is a small Dorset village, situated between Dorchester and Crewkerne. Still very much a rural village, it is surrounded by beautiful Dorset countryside and plenty of lovely walks or cycle including the cycle path from Dorchester to Maiden Newton. Although enjoying a lovely rural aspect, Frampton is under 6 miles from the Country town of Dorchester where you can find all the high street amenities you need as well as interesting attractions including, Max, Gate Thomas Hardy’s 19th Century former house, the County Museum, and The Teddy bear Museum. Maiden’s castle, the Roman fort sits on the outskirts and is an enjoyable walk. Bridport is around 15 miles away and has a much-coveted antiques and collectables market, as well as many independent shops and cafes’. A short 1 miles drive from Bridport is West Bay, the seaside Harbour village, famous for it’s role in ITV’s Broadchurch series. As well as seeing many of the now famous locations used, be sure to enjoy local fish and chips on the harbourside and an ice cream on the seafront.
