“We were extremely pleased with 'Wildflower cottage', fantastic location, within easy reach of so many interesting places.”

The cottage itself was immaculately clean, and well appointed. We could not find fault with anything during our stay and we would recommend it to anyone looking for a holiday in this area.
Mrs Cooke September 2019

“The overall cleanliness left something to be desired.”

The living room carpet was filthy when we arrived. We did receive an offer to have this cleaned whilst we were there but declined as we did not wish to be inconvenienced during our short stay, saying that we would be leaving early on Saturday morning and perhaps it could be cleaned then in readiness for the next occupants. We trust that this was done. It appeared that the rest of the carpet in the cottage had not been vacuumed for some time - there were long blonde hairs in several areas that we ourselves picked up with the vacuum cleaner. We also noted hairs in the drain plugs in the bathroom sinks and showers and there were cobwebs and spiders in evidence too when we arrived. That said, we enjoyed our holiday and will be returning to Sutton Poyntz again next year, although we would not stay at Wildflower Cottage again.

“Great location with pubs and shops and duck pond nearby,quite a busy little village with a lot of cars so beware when walking as no pavement.”

The house is well equipt and mostly clean probably needs a deep clean sometime as a few cobwebs. The ensuite to the main bedroom does not have a toilet in it so really can't be called an ensuite and the lack of toilet should be mentioned in the booking details.The garden was a nice outdoor space but the garden furniture and seats for only 4 and is quite old needs up dating. The main issue we had was the hot water,it seemed we had to have radiators on to get any hot water for showers which made the house unbearably hot,probably the boiler needs replaceing or clearer instructions given in the book in the house which was very confusing. Overall a great holiday and great location for granny grandad mum dad and 2 children.

“DO NOT BOOK.”

...I don't normally leave reviews and certainly not bad ones but I feel I have been left with no option here. I spent a week here in August with the family. The cottage is in a fab location but the accommodation itself and the customer service we have received from Sykes holidays have both been very disappointing. I agree with the comments from previous guests regarding the cleanliness, the garden needing some attention and the garden furniture being inadequate for a cottage which accommodates 6 people. However the big issue is with regards to the hot water, which has 2 problems: 1) when the hot water is on the heating comes on as well, despite the heating setting on the control panel being switched off. This was unbearable in the hot weather that we experienced during our stay! 2) even after we had suffered the heating being on so we could have hot water there wasn't enough to be able to wash 6 people, in fact I struggled to just have a shower and wash my hair even when I was the only one! I did phone Dreams cottages twice during my stay about the water and they said a plumber would come out to have a look but no one did (although Dream cottages were very good at replacing the toaster when it broke and tripped the electric). We also found out that the owners have know about this issue since May but I'm guessing have decided to just carry on taking people's money and doing nothing about it! This is unacceptable customer service and I will definitely never book this cottage again, which is a shame because the location is fab and the neighbours were all lovely. I have emailed Sykes cottages 3 times since my return home regarding this but so far I have been ignored which is not the customer service I expect from Sykes cottages either. So not only do I feel let down by the owners of the property I also feel let down by Sykes cottages, the least they could do is respond to my complaint! One very disappointed family.

Thank you for your feedback and apologies for any issues you had which will be reviewed for any action required/resolution. Apologies also for any delay in correspondence which we will address internally and will then reach out to you to resolve the concerns you have raised. Sykes owner relations

Great location, appreciated the spacious cottage and garden, the cottage was very well equipped and very comfortable we really enjoyed our stay & hope to return very soon
Mrs Grayling April 2019

“We had a lovely holiday the cottage was nice and clean and the instructions meant it was easy to find.”

The cottage came with bedding and towels included and when I queried this Dream Cottages were great at getting back to me email and phone communication was excellent. The cottage is in a great location and light and airy inside, the bedrooms are nice and airy and we liked all the finishing touches like the pictures on the walls. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed. The instructions for key collection were easy to understand and the garden is lovely. The only negative is no toilet in the ensuite upstairs which I had failed to spot when I booked it but not a major issue as there is a family bathroom upstairs and a toilet downstairs. We have a great little holiday and would recommend Dream cottages and Wildflower Cottage.

SUTTON POYNTZ

Weymouth 3.7 miles; Dorchester 5.4 miles

Sutton Poyntz is a small village on the northern side of Preston, on the outskirts of Weymouth, and it sits beneath the George III chalk horse that is carved into the hillside. At the centre of the village sits a beautiful duck pond, and the Spring head pub, where you can enjoy a drink in the pub gardens whilst admiring the chalk horse carving. Just 3.5 miles from Weymouth and it’s golden sandy beach, lanes of boutique shops, sea life centre and historic harbour this is a perfect village base for exploring the Jurassic Coast. Just 13 miles away are the UNESCO world Heritage sites of Lulworth Cove and Durdle, a short drive further on finds you at Corfe Castle, most recently known for being the inspiration behind many Enid Blyton Famous Five novels. Make sure you take a trip on the steam train on the Swanage Railway, which passes the magnificent ruins. A charming base to choose in a stunning part of Dorset.
