Lovely cottage away from it all.
Very comfortable, had pretty much everything we needed, lots of room. So very quiet and the lack of light pollution made night time stargazing a pleasure. Local pub within walking distance (you'll need to take a torch and brace yourself for the uphill climb on the way back) but the cottage has everything you need in the kitchen (nearly - couldn't find a corkscrew but luckily we came prepared!) to cater for yourselves. It was a perfect base for going out to other places in the car - Weymouth, Lyme Regis, Charmouth, Bridport amongst others without getting caught up in single track roads with oncoming tractors. The coast was within walking distance if you're an energetic sort with plenty of stamina. Lovely views as you come out of the top of the road from the cottage. We would recommend visiting Nothe Fort and the WW2 Museum in Weymouth, Bridport was nice little town for wandering around. Lyme Regis was very lovely, if you want to look for fossils, do check the tide times before you go to avoid disappointment (this also goes for Charmouth) lots of interesting shops in Lyme Regis, fossils obviously but tasty bakeries and specialist deli/drink shops, arts and crafts type shops. Depending on where you park, it is all uphill but stopping off at all the interesting shops takes the strain out of it. Back to the cottage.... getting back after a long day out was like going home. The security light comes on as you park up to welcome you home, the cottage is warm and cosy (and yet there is no heating on - may be an issue in the height of summer unless there are fans brought in at that time?), the settee is like a nice warm hug - all good quality and comfortable furniture throughout. There are two showers/toilets. The upstairs one doesn't have enough oomph for a quick in and out shower but the downstairs one is very powerful. Oddly, neither room has a lock on the door. Fine if you're just a couple or there with your children but unnerving if you're a group friends. I don't normally take a hairdryer with me but just happened to on this occasion. Glad I did as I didn't come across one in the week we were there. Also, the notes we were sent after booking said that we would need to supply our own tea towels and oven gloves, this we did but needn't have bothered as everything was there already. Washing up liquid, laundry detergent, cleaning cloths were all there, you only need to bring your own if you need to know exactly what brand/ingredients are involved. More generous than most with the toilet paper too - a new one on the holder and another in the cupboard in both bathrooms. I note on an earlier review that they had difficulty accessing the key in the security box. We had the same issue but you just need a key or a coin to push the black catch down, it's too fiddly for fingers. All in all, it was a lovely stay and we would use it again if visiting the area.

This property is well furnished with comfortable furniture and beds, good pillows and bedding.
The kitchen is well equipped with all the essentials. It is smaller than the pictures makes it appear and we had dog crates with us which makes it quite cramped. There is also some mould on the grouting in the shower and round the window in the bathroom. The welcome pack consists of a packet of Tesco scones, clotted cream and jam. I am gluten and lactose intolerant, the owners obviously did not know but in this day and age with vegetarians, vegans and intolerances couldnât help feeling it could be more imaginative. The patio doors from the garden go through the bedroom, it was very wet when we stayed and I was terrified a wet, muddy dog would jump on the bed, with careful manoeuvring they didnât but there was no mop available in the property to wash the floors. We had asked to take 3 dogs via Sykes which the owner agreed to. We did have issues regarding the washing machine and dryer, it was a very wet week when we were there and each time we went to use the washer or drier they were both in use with big notices on them telling us not to remove whatever was in them, there was a contact number, when phoned no one answered, we didnât bother leaving a message. The hot tub shed is kept locked, which means in effect you have to get permission to use it by asking for the key, which I didnât. There is nothing in the property about the local area, walks or activities, no leaflets or maps. There is also nothing for if the weather is bad, there are no games, books or playing cards. Due to circumstances I spent a lot of time on my own in the property but had fortunately taken books with me. We did have some issues regarding the adjoining door between properties, we had booked both, I would suggest you get very clear assurances from Sykes and the owner about the arrangements you require before booking.

Wonderful Cottage The cottage is very quiet and private with the nearest building being about a mile away.
The cottage had a large open plan kitchen/living/dining room, but very homely with the furniture, pictures, vases of flowers, etc. Upstairs there is a landing/mezzanine area with seating over looking the garden/fields, which was great to sit and have a coffee. There is a family bathroom and two large bedrooms. Personally, we did not find the double bed comfortable and could feel the springs in the mattress when lying on the bed. The cottage had pretty much everything you would need. There was no dishwasher, but that was not an issue, there was clean bedding, lots of towels, an iron, an ironing board, a hoover, etc! If I were to moan about anything then it would be attention to detail on the cleaning, given the cost I would of expected it to be spotless, however, there were LOTS of cobwebs and spiders suggesting it had been shut up for a while or not cleaned thoroughly, the cottage it in the middle of farm fields so you expect things like spiders, but would not of expected so many on arrival to greet us! The floor downstairs is in desperate need of a good mop, I cleaned up some water I spilt and the cloth was black! Would be good if there had been to trivets to put hot pans, we managed as you do, but worried if someone put a hot pan on the worktop it would damage it. All in all a lovely stay and would stay again and recommend to others. Thank you!

The property looks very tired and in need of some TLC.
Jet spraying the walls to remove the caked in bird poo would be good The beds were extremely uncomfortable, the springs dug in and infact I tried to sleep in each bed as I could not avoid the springs in the main bed. My son, who is less sensitive than me, also had the same problem. It would be helpful to provide cleaning products, there were no surface sprays or cleaning materials for the bathroom, the toilet brush was broken. I would usually give the shower a quick clean everyday it would be great to have a shower cleaner and a useable toilet brush. This is the first time I have stayed in a cottage that doesn't provide a "care package" of milk tea bags and often other goodies, just to get you going. The skylights need something you can open them with and need blinds as the sun shines in directly, which is wonderful, but not so good when you are trying to keep the rooms.cool. Sorry for the long list, but I would want to know if it were my property. Also storage, we found the hoover in front of the door in the downstairs bedroom and the mop and bucket behind the arm chair! We loved the location and views from the upstairs bedroom.

The Barn is just lovely!
We found it easily and loved that it was in such a rural spot and yet so close to the village and everything we wanted in the surrounding area. It is well equipped - we especially liked the comfy sofas! Thoughtfully furnished and decorated - we loved the seating area on the balcony overlooking the beautiful countryside. The Barn is within very easy reach of all the Jurassic coastline has to offer and we enjoyed visits to West beach, Eype, Bridport, the Isle of Portland and ventured a bit further out to the Purbeck area to visit Corfe Castle and Lulworth Cove. A couple of suggestions which the owners may like to consider: some comfortable outdoor chairs would be a real bonus; if there is a way to boost the water pressure upstairs it would be helpful as the shower has very little power (there were only two of us so we just used the downstairs one which was fine); over time your stock of teaspoons has been depleted (leaving only three!); perhaps a suggestions book so that visitors can leave tips for future guests. All in all we had a wonderful stay and will definitely consider returning to sample more of what Dorset has to offer.
