Mr Flora
October 2020

“The property is wonderful!”

Well equipped with all you could ask for. It's a new building (3ish years) so all the modern amenities are here: underfloor heating, modern kitchen with dishwasher, fridge freezer etc. Basically you couldn't want for more....but there is more! The view overlooking the owners farm was perfect for us city dwellers to look out onto and relax! To top it off the cows were very friendly :) ...

The view overlooking the owners farm was perfect for us city dwellers to look out onto and relax! To top it off the cows were very friendly :) The owner Shiona, was very welcoming and a perfect host. She provided all the details and requirements i.e. Recycling / food waste bins etc. and left us to enjoy or break. All appropriate COVID measures were in place and the property was spotless and very tidy...

Mr Newman October 2020

“Rectory Farm View is a very clean, comfortable holiday accommodation.”

The views all around are beautiful, & we saw amazing sunsets. Shona was very welcoming & helpful , & made sure that we had everything we needed. The bottle of Prosecco in the fridge was a lovely surprise. We would definitely book this again.

Mrs Warhurst July 2020

“Fantastic spacious holiday home.”

Photos don’t do it justice. Comfy beds and well stocked kitchen. Spotlessly clean and the hosts were lovely and always available if we needed anything. 2 pubs in walking distance. The one in West Camel serves Caribbean food in the garden and I can recommend the takeaway Sunday lunch from the pub in Queen Camel. Great location for exploring Somerset and Dorset. Lovely to eat our breakfast out on patio and we made use of the bbq in the evening.

“A beautiful accommodation in a beautiful setting!”

Book this - you will not be disappointed. The house was spacious, bright, modern and very clean. The host was superb and had thought of everything we needed- including all kitchen utensils. She was very easy to contact and made sure we had everything we needed. Each room was very clean and tastefully decorated with very comfy beds,linen and towels. There was an en-suite to the master with a large walk in shower with excellent water pressure. The main bathroom had a bath tub and shower as well. The house was very warm and cosy and a fan was also provided. There was lots of natural light throughout the property helped in by three large bi fold doors which spanned the open plan living/dining area. This made the whole property feel sunny and spacious as well as providing stunning views of the fields which wrapped around the property. There was also a outdoor furniture including dining table with parasol and a bbq. It was lovely to have our breakfast outside over looking the fields. The setting was very clam and relaxing. Everything has been very well maintained and the property felt new. A great place to enjoy the many attractions in the area....We visited Stonehenge, Weymouth beach and Charmouth to go fossill hunting which were all within an hour's drive. The accommodation provided a great base from which to explore these places. There is a supply shop a few minutes drive from the house with fresh bread as well as a Londis Petrol shed/Macdonalds/Costa within 10 mins drive. We are a family of six including 2 children and grandparents and this was certainly a great place to enjoy with the family. Thank you for a lovely stay - we will be back !

“We had a lovely family Christmas for four adults and two small children at Rectory Farm View.”

There was plenty of room for everyone and all their presents, including four extra adult visitors on Christmas Day. We were able to cook a full Christmas dinner for 10 in the well equipped kitchen. We were warm and cosy with a lovely view across the fields.

Mrs Goatham September 2019

“Excellent accommodation and great location!”

- Mrs Goatham, September 2019
Mr Leonard August 2019

“The property is perfect as a base for exploring the beautiful Somerset countryside.”

It’s very well equipped, comfortable and despite only being a couple of years old is clearly well looked after. The owners are very helpful and take good care of you during your stay. The only minor things that could possibly be done to make the property any better is the inclusion of a dvd or blu-ray in the main area and perhaps a television in the main bedroom.

- Mr Leonard, August 2019
Mrs Tayler July 2019

“The best accommodation we have had.”

Everything we needed, well equipped, very clean, excellent hosts, spacious and very near a lot of tourist attractions. We would definitely return for another holiday. Thanks

Mr Draper June 2019

“It was all perfect, everything the ad said was correct.”

Very very comfortable and friendly owners.

Mr Fincham October 2018

“A very nice cottage, warm and cosy, welcoming hosts.”

- Mr Fincham, October 2018
Mrs Shah October 2018

“The cottage was very clean had everything we wanted for our holiday.”

The beds were very comfortable. The bed linen and towels were of very good quality. In the kitchen there was more than enough of the plates, bowls and mugs. The frying pan was a bit big than the electric hob it should be one size small. In the master bedroom there should be a window because at night it was quite warm. The veiw from the cottage was just too good. Watching the calves while having our breakfast just made our day. Had a very pleasant stay. Will come back again.

- Mrs Shah, October 2018
Poole October 2018

“Although the property was well equipped and well furnished it did not have a homely feel.”

It had fantastic bi-fold doors in the living space and master bedroom however we were unable to derive any benefit from these despite the fantastic weather. Each afternoon/evening we were inundated with flies so were forced to keep the doors and windows closed which resulted in the accommodation becoming extremely hot and especially uncomfortable for sleeping. We would have benefited from fly screens, fans in each room or preferably air conditioning. The accommodation was advertised as having a patio with views. The view consisted of a cow field which was immediately behind and to the right of the property.

- Poole, October 2018
Mrs Goatham September 2018

“This was our second time at Rectory Farm, this time staying in Rectory Farm View.”

As before, the property is very well equipped, immaculately clean with beautiful views and it is well located to explore the area as it is only one mile from A303.

- Mrs Goatham, September 2018
Mrs Smith August 2018

“Rectory Farm View is a lovely newly built and well presented property.”

The owners live just around the corner and were very welcoming, even adding some fizz as a welcome present which was a very nice touch. In terms of presentation, cleanliness facilities and appointment it has to be one of the best holiday cottages that we have stayed in. On top of this it was easy to get to from the main route down to the West Country and well located for visits to lovely venues such as, Sherborne, Lyme Regis, Wells, Cheddar etc...... All in all we had a very enjoyable stay and love this part of the country

- Mrs Smith, August 2018
Mrs West August 2018

Ms Deacon June 2018

“Rectory Farm View exceeded my expectations of a holiday apartment.”

The rooms were well furnished, spacious and clean - lovely feel to the property which is on the edge of Queen Camel. Location was perfect for visiting many places of interest both in Somerset and Dorset. Peaceful and relaxing- had a great time.
