Excellent. We both had a lovely time in Buttercup Cottage. One of a row of four cottages in a peaceful rural area. Easy to find from the instructions provided and plenty of parking.

Buttercup is a well equipped cottage in a quiet location. The beds and furniture were comfortable. This is a good location for visiting South Somerset and West Dorset, it was less than 1/2 hour to get to the coast. We had a nice meal at the Winyards Gap Inn at Chedington, which had lovely views. The owners were friendly and helpful.

Booked very last minute for the Bank Holiday Weekend. We knew the coast would be heaving, so we wanted somewhere quiet but within easy reach of the coast and the location was perfect. The cottage was beautiful, clean and well equipped, with very well planned interior design making great use of the space. Enjoyed some wonderful walks along the SW CoRead moreastal Path from Eype and some great BBQ'd seafood on the beach at Seatown, which was an unexpected surprise. Hide

The location of the cottage on the farm was fine though there were two sets of people alongside with dogs which wandered a bit and owners called them late at night. The history of the farm was very interesting and it would have been nice to meet the owners, who appeared to have no contact with guests., which was a shame.

We had a lovely week in Buttercup cottage on Buckham Mills Farm. The setting is beautiful and the views from the converted cow sheds are stunning. Our small, two-bedroomed cottage was well equipped and furnished comfortably and we appreciated the milk, tea bags, coffee sachets & biscuits on arrival. We explored the area in our car every day and we Read moresoon got used to travelling along the single-track Cheddington Lane on our way to places like Beaminster, Dorchester, Corfe Castle and the coast.

I really cant fault the cottage - it was ideal for our stay. The setting is stunning and I could have sat gazing at the view for hours. The cottage itself was equipped to a high standard and had everything we needed. The owners were very welcoming and happy to help with anything we needed.
