  • "We loved the cottage it had everything we needed and great having the garden opposite for the dog."

    The only thing I would suggest is to get the light outside the front door working it would be most helpful for dark evening for letting the dog out for his last wee

  • "Beautiful cottage in a wonderful location."

    We had a lovely stay and whilst the cottage was OK and met our needs, just a few little things could have been done to make it much better. A bigger size mirror in the bathroom would be helpful and the organisation of the kitchen cupboards was very haphazard. If they were tidied and things put in a logical place it would not have taken us 2 days to find teaspoons. There is ample room but was not tidied at all. The dog pooh bags and torch were very welcome but again took us a couple of days to find as they were randomly hidden amongst other things. Lastly the dining table is too big for the space allowed and hard to use. A smaller more lightweight table and chairs would be lovely. We couldn't find any cushions for the garden furniture which would have been nice. Overall it is perfectly adequate, although needs a few small updates.

  • "The only criticism I would give is that the bed was too small."

    I am a tall man and sleep in a king sized bed at home but this was a standard double. Everything else was spot on and we couldn’t have had a nicer stay. Cottage is lovely the neighbours were friendly and it is in a great location in the village.

  • "Lovely location, ample parking, lovely garden."

    A short walk to Lulworth Cove, a pub directly next door and a good place for exploring the pretty part of Dorset and it's attractions. It is such a shame that this pretty thatched cottage is grubby and poorly maintained inside. I understand that a listed building comes with it's problems but much could be improved. Little Ivy has had many positive reviews and there are many who may accept the condition it is in. It would be so different if it was mine.

  • "Just a few things we would like to mention but overall a lovely cottage and fantastic location."

    The cottage really needs a power shower and a thorough clean throughout, the cottage was clean enough when we arrived but the sofa and chair could do with a clean/freshen up. The beds were too high and duvet too heavy. The garden I believe was advertised as private, as pretty as the garden is, this is not private! I would recommend the cottage but obviously point out the shower and garden situation and also the parking is very narrow but understandable considering the width of the village

    The cottage was beautiful, very spacious for 2 people with a dog, lovely enclosed garden, comfortable beds, warm, plenty of hot water and was nice to wash and dry our clothes before returning home. Was not expecting a bottle of wine, bottle of milk, tea, coffee, sugar, dog biscuits, cooking oils, washing up liquid, hand washes, toilet and kitchen rolls to be provided as a welcome package, very very thoughtful. Would definitely return to this cottage.

  • "Totally delightful cottage."

    Very clean and well equipped for our visit .We we’re nicely surprised by the provisions that had been supplied. A very thoughtful touch. I was pleased to have a separate garden area, gated and fenced off from the neighbouring property, as we both had dogs, so it was reassuring that we were able to keep them separate and safe. We had the most enjoyable stay, lots of walking and plenty of hot water for the soak at the end of the day. We loved staying at Little Ivy.

    A couple of small observations- the smoke alarm is is so sensitive it went off every time we used the oven or toaster, and the boiler seemed to struggle to provide hot water on some occasions, despite it being re- set twice.

  • "Generally we could not find fault with the cottage apart from a few concerns."

    1.The small key safe is fiddly to use.It needs to be modernised. 2.The latch on the inside of the door needs to be larger.It takes quite an effort to raise the latch once in the down position.3.The small rugs "creep"across the carpet and it is very easy to trip up as they form ridges.4.The most worrying aspect of the property is the entrance and exit from and to the very busy road outside.The traffic speeds along the road .Reversing in is difficult with the heavy traffic.Coming out the mirror opposite is too small.Cars can be seen if they have side lights on but blend into a dark background without lights.

    It is in a great location, with the beach and other facilities within walking distance. My only negative comment is that a check needs to be done on the dishware and glasses mugs etc after each stay. When we arrived and throughout our stay we found that there’s items were not left clean and with bits of dried food/ stains left on them which was not pleasant to find. Other than that I would stay here again.

  • "A comfortable stay."

    The owners have made the most of the room available at this property. It was well equipped. The only downfall for us was the fact that no shower was available. We would have preferred to see a shower unit rather than a bath but perhaps that would be a little difficult for the owners given the area available. The access was not easy but that was conveyed to us before travelling so we expected that. It was great that the back garden was dog friendly and secure so we could leave the back door open to allow him to venture into the garden with reasonable ease. If we chose not to use the car the local bus service was efficient. There was a pub next door to the property but that shouldn't put people off because it was not at all rowdy. We believe it served lovely meals but unfortunately we were not able to book as it was full at the times that suited us. All in all a nice break and the ability to venture further afield, either by bus or car.

  • "Lovely cute cottage, stayed a week with two adults."

    We felt right at home. Everything you need, and more, is present in the cottage. Loved the area and things we got to do during this week: hiking, trailrunning, visiting nice towns such as Weymouth, West Bay, Bridport, Lyme Regis, visiting Monkey World, shopping in the nice small shops... Showering in the bath tub was totally fine and we slept wonderful in the great beds. We have a small car and thus parking was not a problem at all, but I can imagine with a bigger car and less parking skills, it will feel a bit small to get in. In the cottage we noticed a little "dog smell" coming from the carpet, and a lot of spider webs at the ceilings and in corners (no spiders though ;-)). During our stay we had a power break down, right at the moment our fire alarm got off while cooking. But it appeared it had nothing to do with that: the whole village had no power. Got really nice help from the main office when we phoned. Strangely enough we couldn't get the power working again ourselves (although we tried switching the switches several times during 2 hours), but a really lovely couple of the maintenance crew helped us out. For short: really recomment this cottage!

  • "The cottage was lacking a shower - only having a shower attachment connected to the bath taps."

    There was no curtain to stop splashes, so this meant running a bath for each of us every morning. There is a shared washing machine / dryer with the main cottage. Unfortunately our neighbours totally monopolised this facility including both clothes horses. We had a Jaguar F Pace SUV - it got easier as the week went on to reverse through the narrow gates and there was sufficient room for our and our neighbour's car to be parked side by side at the back of the property. The cottage was immaculately clean and fully stocked with everything you may need from a flashlight to dog treats to cleaning materials. The cottage was in a lovely location - just a 10-15 minute walk down to the Lulworth Cove. It was handy having a pub next door, although we were not impressed with their limited menu. Both cottages have their own enclosed back garden which was handy for our little dog to safely explore.

We did wonder how well we might have coped in wet weather the cottage though quaint is a little tight of space and we thought it would be difficult to keep carpets and rugs dry and clean. Perhaps remove the downstairs carpets and replace with wooden / laminate flooring to make it easier to keep clean etc. We would however definitely return again

The quality of furnishings was excellent even down to the Egyptian cotton sheets and luxury fluffy towels. The whole place was spotlessly clean and felt very inviting, it was warm, cosy and fairly quiet despite it’s roadside position. The Castle Inn next door provided a warm friendly atmosphere with excellent food (especially the Sunday roast). Lulworth Cove was a 15 minute walk downhill and provided great views and other very good restaurants especially Lulworth Lodge Hotel. I would not hesitate to recommend this cottage and would certainly consider going back.

We were really impressed by the fenced off gardens for both cottages as this is a huge help when holidaying with the dogs. The cottage is next to a fab pub, friendly staff and great food. Small disco on NYE but great fun! 10 minutes walk to Lulworth Cove through the beautiful village where there are more great dog friendly eateries. We explored so many walks from the cottage without using the car. We had a wonderful week and will definitely be back to Little Ivy, or the larger cottage next door with friends.

If you tire of Cove and cliff top walks then Lulworth Castle is a short drive away and offers another glimpse at some more recent history, along with Tyneham Village, and Corfe Castle. This is a really special area and the village retains a lot of it’s thatched cottages and has a real air of a rural retreat.
