"A lovely cottage in a very convenient place for buses etc."
All the linen and towels were high quality and was great to be provided with plenty of loo rolls, kitchen roll, wood for the burner etc A very well equipped kitchen so we didn’t eat out, preferring to enjoy the lovely light kitchen and cosy living room with the wood burner.
Thank you so much for your lovely positive comments Annie. We are really pleased that you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again in the future. Property Owner

"The cottage was very clean, tidy, well presented and plenty of kitchen items to use."
Beds were very comfy too. We has a great stay, 7 of us in total with 3 small children. The stairs were very steep so would recommend a stair gate, but we blocked this with our suitcases to ensure the kids did not fall down if they got up at night. Parking is steep and limited but no issue really especially with the garage. We all had a great stay, location perfect too for ease to get to places. Thank you. Lovely pre Xmas break and the cottage had lovely Xmas decorations too which was a nice touch....and we had our own elf on the shelf that visited us so the kids were over the moon with 'snowflake'

"The property suited our requirements perfectly."
We were on holiday with family to celebrate my husband’s 60th birthday. The lounge felt cosy, especially with the log burner in use, but also offered plenty of space for everyone. The kitchen diner was lovely. Often whoever was cooking was joined by everyone else sat round the table chatting and enjoying the bright space. The bedrooms were comfortable and all had plenty of storage. The garage, accessed from the utility, was brilliant as it allowed us to get our 5 month old granddaughter in and out of her car seat in the dry! Having one car in the garage also created more space for our other car to park in front of the property. We had a wonderful week and thoroughly enjoyed staying at Fisherbridge cottage. It’s one of the best places my husband and I have stayed in and we’ve been renting Sykes properties for several years. The location was great for visiting Weymouth and Dorchester. A special mention for the garden centre at Poundbury which looks amazing with all their Christmas displays. Definitely worth a visit.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. It means a lot to us. We are so glad you had an enjoyable stay and hope to see you again sometime. Thank you also for leaving the property so clean after your stay - always much appreciated. Property Owner

"Beautiful property."
It would be nice to have the following. Paper towels, some dish towels, and basic provisions. We only had 3 small rolls of toilet paper. No extras on site.

"This property was everything we expected it to be and more."
It is comfortable and spacious and beautifully presented .The guest information book was very useful, right down to operating instructions for all the kitchen appliances, log burner and heating. Many thanks to the property owner for the welcome pack, and we hope to return sometime in the future. We definitely recommend this property as not only is it lovely, its location is ideal for being not too far from places of interest and the beach.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. We are delighted you enjoyed your time at the cottage and would love to see you back again some time :) Property Owner

"Beautiful cottage, everything we could have wanted was available and more Would return again"

"We stayed for a week and the cottage was fantastic."
We had 7 adults and 1 child. Plenty of room for everyone and a very high spec of finish. This is the best cottage I have stayed in. If I return in a large group to the area this will be the first place I look to see if it is available.

"A lovely property, very clean, kitchen equipped to a very high standard with plenty of everything needed."
Some nice touches on arrival, such as slippers and bathroom products. The welcome pack of items left on the kitchen table was lovely, as was the pink Prosecco in the fridge! The location was great for us, as was the very handy Spa shop over the road. We enjoyed our stay very much and would definitely return to Fisherbridge Cottage if we were in the area again in the future.

"Enjoyed the stay at the cottage very much."
Very clean and new facilities. The front door didn't open that well and might need looking at otherwise very pleased with the cottage.
-
"Great property well maintained with a high standard of cleanliness."
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to stay again. As we were two families staying an extra set of house keys would have been useful but not essential.
Thank you so much for your positive review. It means a lot to us. Thank you also for leaving the property so clean and tidy after your stay. Much appreciated. Hope to see you again. Property Owner

"The property is beautifully presented and within easy access to all that Weymouth and the surrounding area has to offer."
We did find that although the property lists a microwave there didn’t appear to be one unfortunately. Also the stairs to the bedrooms are steeper than some people may be used to, also the designated parking zone, although visitors could make use of the garage to park their car.
Hello. Thanks so much for your feedback. I'm glad you enjoyed the cottage and the area. I wish you had called the number provided so that we could have told you how to use the microwave. It's a bit confusing as the smaller of the two ovens is a combination oven and microwave. The instruction manual is in the guest folder, but if you've never used a combination oven/microwave before I can understand it would look like there wasn't a microwave there. I take your points about the parking. The space at the side of the garden is steep but there is also a space opposite the cottage. However, it's not clearly labelled as parking for Fisherbridge Cottage so we will correct that! Best wishes, Property Owner

"Excellent. Beautifully presented & well equipped accommodation with high grade appliances."
Most important it is possible to be comfortable in bed at night. Lots of little touches which make a difference e.g. quality cookware & crockery, all items matching. Various small electrical appliances & little items like measuring cups.
Thank you so much for your positive feedback. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and hope you visit again sometime. Thank you also for leaving the cottage so clean and tidy. Much appreciated. Property Owner
