Beautiful spot for a relaxed family stay

Beautiful cottage with a fabulous fireplace, a must for a winter break. The setting on a working farm was just lovely and the children were treated to a visit to the lambs, calves and ducklings. The hosts were so helpful. Would love to return. Thank you

A lovely cottage with a great fire burner.

A lovely cottage with a great fire burner. We received a lovely welcome from the owner and she very kindly supplied us with some fresh eggs from the chickens. The cottage is located in a small village outside of Sherbourne with Sherbourne itself having several nice pubs/restaurants to eat in if you don’t fancy cooking. Would highly recommend Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

The only problem I think we had was possibly the location in North Dorset but I think that was more

The only problem I think we had was possibly the location in North Dorset but I think that was more our fault of the property itself. The property itself was well equipped and clean and it was handy having the owner next door. Overall great value for money and a peaceful location .

This is a very well equipped and comfortable cottage.

This is a very well equipped and comfortable cottage. It is attached to the owners’ farmhouse and the owner is very pleasant and helpful. The nearby village has a few amenities but Sherborne is very close with a Sainsbury ( next to the station) and a Waitrose that we didn’t find. There are plenty of places of interest nearby to visit.

Beautiful location, very clean and well equipped. The owner was very helpful but not intrusive. There are many things to do in the area and the coast is easily accessible by car. The nearby town of Sherborne is well worth a visit with several good restaurants.
