Rectory Coach House

Such a pleasure to stay in this beautifully presented cottage, a real 'home from home'.

The cottage is situated in a pretty little village and offers easy access to tourist attractions all over the county and is within a few minutes walk of the village pub with great food options. A big 'thank you' to the owners for making us feel so comfortable and for the 'treats' on arrival.

We had a lovely stay at the Rectory Coach House.

It was perfect for us, holidaying for the first time without kids for several decades. The property was well equipped, comfortable and located in a tranquil small village in the shadow of an impressive Rectory building in which the owners live. Depending on the purpose of your stay, if it's to remain on site, walk to the local pub and relax, it's perfect. If you like to visit local places, you will need a car but the likes of Bath, Wookey Hole caves, Weymouth and Yeovil are all within a 1 hour drive through some lovely countryside and villages so not an issue for us. The owners were very friendly and helpful and there was plenty of information within the property pack detailing local supermarkets, restaurants, things to do, etc. We would definitely recommend booking the carvery on a Sunday at The King's Arms in East Stour - very nice food and friendly staff and owner - we also ate in there during the week to try some of the other dishes on the main menu. A visit to Gold Hill (where the 1970s Hovis ad was filmed) and the abbey in Sherbourne are recommended. All in all, a lovely, well-equipped property in peaceful surroundings which allowed us to relax and recharge from our hectic lives and a good base to go and explore.

Everything you could need for a break away.

Clean, bright and homely from the card and wine left by the owners to meeting her and having her recommendations for local attractions to good places to eat. Great value for money and would return if we go back to that area.

The coach house is a little gem, we was met by Linda and she made us feel most welcome and helpful with the local attractions.

The property is well equipped and comfortable, rooms are large and light with great views across the countryside. Outside you have a private courtyard so you can enjoy breakfast in the sun. The location is in a small village very quiet, with a nice pub 3min walk away (The Stapleton Arms ) serving perfect food not to be missed, also well situated for getting about and seeing all the sights and attractions, Would defiantly recommend to family and friends.

Lovely property and owners

Sehr schöne Ferienwohnung und sehr gut gelegen für Ausflüge in die Umgebung.

Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Guter Pub im Ort.

We had a lovely time at Rectory Coach House.

The facilities were extremely good and it was situated in a very convenient position to see lots of attractions but it was also very quiet. The accommodation had everything you need and was very comfortable and clean. I have a back problem and normally really struggle with mattresses but the bed at Rectory Coach House was so comfortable I didn’t need to use my portable special topper. The owner kindly left us a few necessities including milk, tea coffee, wine chocolate and biscuits. We will definitely be booking here again.

Just perfect.

Just perfect for a comfortable quiet stay and a base to explore the area. That's exactly what we had. The property lacked nothing as far as we were concerned and Linda, the owner, is lovely - and very busy. No faults.

Really excellent property.

Superbly maintained. great location.

Just a lovely spot which I would highly recommend.

The owner was the perfect host and we were left a lovely arrival hamper which was greatly appreciated and enjoyed . The property was comfortable , well laid out , with everything you could need and more . Ideal location to explore the whole county with good local amenities , the local pub being just a few minutes walk , and the food was extremely good . All in all a wonderful holiday 10 out of 10.

A very clean and comfortable cosy cottage in a beautiful location.

A very well planned and equipped property, quiet, in an attractive village with a good pub just down the road serving excellent food.

The hostess is friendly and helpful but not obtrusive. Definitely a good stay!

What a gem, well equipped accommodation with such friendly and helpful owners.

We had a great time at the Rectory and would recommend it without hesitation and Linda was an excellent host, friendly and helpful.

Would book again if holidaying in the area.

Property was clean, comfortable, spacious and very well equipped and nicely furnished.

Although in the grounds of owner's home it was quite private and quiet. Owner was friendly and helpful, but not intrusive.

Everything we needed for a lovely holiday, our host was very friendly and helpful.

Thank you to LInda for a wonderful stay .

Fabulous location for exploring 4 counties . The property was clean , comfortable and well appointed . I would recommend highly

The property was immaculate.

We loved the flowers and welcome basket. Very nice. A big negative for us were the notes on lots of things in the house that said "Leave here". Also, there were exact enough plates and cups. 4 of each. (The big plates were too big for the dishwasher, you had to lie them down.) And also the fact that we had to shut the windows (We got an email at 08.10 in the morning!) even with just a drizzle, was a big negative. We had already checked and there was no water falling on the windowsill!

A lovely holiday home set in beautiful Dorset countryside.

We had a very peaceful, relaxing and comfortable stay. Linda made us feel very welcome and the basket of treats and bottle of wine were much appreciated. There's a great pub just a two minute walk down the lane which is perfect for soaking up the evening sun over a pint and a bite to eat. Ruth & JP.

A lovely property, in a beautiful peaceful location.

Spotlessly clean and very well appointed. We had a very comfortable stay and thankyou to Linda for being such an accomodating and helpful host. We would not hesitate to recommend. Paul and Jenny

A lovely comfortable and well equipped cottage in a peaceful location.

Beautiful views over the garden and Dorset countryside can be enjoyed whilst sitting on the patio with a glass of wine! A perfect location from which to explore this lovely part of Dorset. Thank you Linda for being so welcoming and for the basket of goodies. I would recommend with no hesitation.

Beautiful place defeinitely recommend for those looking for a quiet stay in nature.

Lovely little cottage ideally suited for visiting local gardens and stately homes etc.

good little pub a walk away.

Your web site described The Coach House, Buckhorn Weston "EXACTLY".

The description on your site reflected what we found on our arrival. The welcome pack of milk, tea, coffee and wine, put us promptly into holiday mood! A very well equipped and comfortable cottage feel, in an excellent location. The house and area information was ideal, we were also pleased with the Covid precautions that are observed by the owners, who are very helpful but not intrusive. This is on our "Must come here again" list!

Lovely cosy cottage.

The owner, Linda, is very helpful and friendly. A welcome basket was left on the kitchen table for our arrival which contained tea, coffee, biscuits, wine and chocolate which was lovely. There was also a pint of milk in the fridge. The cottage had everything that you would need for a very comfortable stay. Very quiet location if you are looking to relax. Lots of places nearby to visit. Would definitely recommend this cottage.

Lovely holiday in lovely house, very clean and well equipped everything that you would need to have good holiday.

Excellent accommodation.

Very clean on arrival. Could not ask for more!

Spent a week at Rectory Coach House and had a fabulous week.

It's in the perfect location for exploring the whole of Dorset and further attractions such as Stone Henge and Cheddar Gorge. The village is quiet and the local pub was lovely and only a 2 min walk. The cottage itself was absolutely immaculate and was equipped with everything we needed and much more! They have thought of absolutely everything - a home from home. The welcome basket with coffee/tea/sugar, wine, chocolate and biscuits was a lovely touch. Linda was extremely friendly and obliging - nothing was too much trouble.

Beautiful holiday accommodation ideally located for exploring rural Dorset.

The accommodation was spotless and everything you could possibly need was on hand, with welcoming hosts who were very helpful and the chocolate, milk, biscuits and wine waiting on our arrival was much appreciated. The outside area with neighbouring sheep is an added bonus, overall everything was perfect. Highly recommend!!

A very comfortable cottage in a quiet location enabling visits to many local places.

Beautiful distant views through the trees and over the fountain in the entrance courtyard. Private outdoor seating area with sun and shade. We had a very relaxing stay

We enjoyed our stay at the Old Rectory Coachouse very much.

Upon entering the Coachouse we were met by a pretty card with a lovely welcome message in it together with goodies to enjoy during the week Our host was extremely thoughtful and friendly and came to welcome us after we had a chance to settle in. The property is very tastefully decorated and cosy and it was lovely to sit outside under the pergola in the dappled sunshine. The village is very pretty, well kept and quiet with only a pub which was very nice with excellent food. There are also two supermarkets which are a short drive away. We had a very peaceful and relaxed holiday which was much needed.

Everything was perfect.

There are lots of things to do and see in the surrounding area. The owners are nice and friendly. Everything was clean and everything you needed was there.

The property is in first class condition and situated in a nice village with a good' loca'l within walking distance.

We found the location ideal for visiting Wells, Salisbury, Cheddar Gorge and Wookey Caves. The owners very welcoming and helpful.

Rectory Coach House is perfectly located for visiting Stonehenge, Monkey World, The Jurassic Coast, Shaftesbury and Longleat Safari Park.

It’s situated in the very quaint village of Buckhorn Weston and has everything you could possibly need during a self catering holiday. The house itself is very clean, comfortable and spacious and sits within the grounds of a truly stunning Victorian rectory. The outdoor space is a good size complete with sitting/eating area and built in stone barbecue, all of which looks out onto a beautiful water feature in the main grounds. The owners are extremely polite and helpful and on hand if you require assistance without being overbearing. I’d recommend this property wholeheartedly and would go back in a heartbeat.

The coach house is a lovely place to stay, conveniently located, not far off the A303 (which is the main road to everywhere).

The owners have thought of everything in the accommodation and are on hand if you need them. It is decorated to a very high standard. In a charming little village with an excellent local pub whose meals are superb.

Place was clean and tidy.

Does need to supply larger bath towel ( bath sheets would be better) or take your own as only one per person to last the week. If you intend to used the dishwasher would suggest you take some extra tablets as only two supplied but could do with more crockery. Television in bedroom would be nice instead of kitchen. If you are looking for a very quiet place this is the one for you.

Beautiful and very peaceful location.

Ideal for one or two couples. Would definitely recommend.

The cottage was very nice but the holiday was ruined by the extremely uncomfortable beds.

Neither I nor my wife were able to get a good night's sleep and we were exhausted by the end of the week. Because of that experience I would not be able to recommend this cottage.

Excellent location fantastic host everything you needed was in accommodation home from home recommend this to anyone

Well equipped accommodation the only comment I would make is that the bed is quite firm for our tastes but that’s a question of taste Really nice spot

Excellent comfortable and clean cottage perfectly placed for exploring three counties of Dorset, Somerset and Wiltshire.

Could do with a Pyrex jug for heating milk in microwave and maybe a few more cups or mugs otherwise everything needed is there.

A few small issues- No implement for hand washing dishes were provided and only 2 toilet rolls and 2 dishwasher tablets.

Would have bought these if I’d known. It was very helpful to have an airer, iron and ironing board though. Water pressure very high in the shower! It was a little tricky to get the right temperature though. However it did seem very clean and we enjoyed our stay.

The owners Linda and Terry were very welcoming and very helpful when we had any queries with good suggestions on places to visit in the area.

A very comfortable and well appointed property in a quiet Dorset village- ideal place to wind down. We would recommend this property to family and friends.

Beautiful holiday home and immaculate upon arrival.

Absolutely nothing negative to say about our stay, would highly recommend.
