A nice cottage in a lovely setting. Be prepared for narrow roads and having to reverse a lot. But it was not too bad. Well appointed and well furnished. Kitchen nicely kitted out.

We enjoyed our stay here. We found everything we wanted. The conservatory was very useful and nice to sit in. The beds were comfortable. Good pubs nearby so all in all, a good weeks holiday.

Lovely comfortable cottage in a quiet location. we were there for Christmas and the owners had decorated a lovely tree, which made it feel special. Walking distance to 2 pubs, and the Three Horseshoes was very friendly and the food was good.

Delightful clean well equipped cottage. Very peaceful rural location so you have to like driving down narrow country lanes. Three Horseshoes pub within walking distance does good pub grub with a very welcoming hostess, Emma. Great location for exploring Bridport, Lyme Regis, Sherborne, Cerne Abbas and Dorchester. Would have enjoyed access to the riRead morever but weather wasn't good enough for us to sit out much although my daughter saw a kingfisher on arrival. Hide
