Guests say

Newfield Farm Cottages receive high praise for their spaciousness, comfort, and suitability for large gatherings across generations. The peaceful rural setting and thoughtful touches like fresh flowers and homemade cakes contribute to a welcoming atmosphere. The property's extensive facilities, including well-equipped kitchens and a games room, add to the enjoyment of guests, despite some minor concerns about access roads and maintenance.

Guests generally find the cottages clean and well-maintained, with fresh flowers and welcoming touches. However, there are isolated comments about cleanliness issues such as cobwebs and debris under furniture, which slightly affect the overall impression.

The location is highly appreciated for its peaceful rural setting, ideal for relaxation and family gatherings. The proximity to local attractions and the beauty of the Dorset countryside are frequently mentioned as highlights.

The cottages are consistently described as comfortable, with ample space, cosy furnishings, and well-equipped for large groups. Comfortable beds and the provision of communal areas for dining and socialising contribute to a positive experience.

Facilities are generally praised, especially the well-stocked kitchens and the games room. However, there are some remarks about the need for maintenance, such as issues with a hob and the games room equipment, which suggest room for improvement.

The owners' thoughtfulness is frequently mentioned, with guests appreciating the welcoming gifts such as homemade cakes, fresh eggs, and flowers. While these gestures are warmly received, it is politely noted that such extras, while delightful, are not guaranteed for every stay.

About this property

Blandford Forum 3.7 miles. Newfield Holiday Cottages is made up of three separate cottages situated within a lovingly converted barn. The cottages are Rose Cottage, Forget Me Not Cottage and Bluebell Cottage, each cottage has its own individual character and charm which together with the expansive outdoor space is perfect for family gatherings and groups of friends. All three cottages have spacious, open plan living and kitchen areas with Rose Cottage seating up to 20 guests in one large dining area. With such well equipped kitchens you’ll be able to rustle up a family-favourite feast in no time, perfect for celebratory meals at the large dining table, as well as this space being great for an afternoon of board games. Choose to gather together in the spacious sitting room and toast to a marvellous holiday with the woodburning stove offering an extra sense of comfort in the cooler months, or break off into separate groups and relax into one of the plush sofas in the open-plan living spaces. The flexible bedroom layouts across the cottages make sleeping arrangements easy to organise and there is a large comfortable seating area in Rose Cottage where you can all gather for relaxing evenings indoors when you’re not exploring the excitement of Dorset. Offering a games room too with table football and table tennis, the cottages provide hours of fun for all ages. Be sure to make the most of your outdoor space, where the little ones and your canine companions can play freely as you enjoy alfresco dining in the form of a barbecue in the summer months.

  • Tarina

    The accommodation is very roomy with everything you need . There was a welcome pack for adults and the dogs . Very quiet didn’t hear anything from the farm apart from the chickens. Fantastic walks, bike rides from the door . The local pub was a mile away good food . Would definitely recommend.

    It’s set well away from any other properties and the owner Anna has been so laid back leaving us to do our own thing. We had a large group of 16 people and the place is enormous! It has so much space you never felt like you were on top of each other- to tell you the truth it was that big some of the rooms we didn’t even use! Looking at other properties around this size price wise we couldn’t believe how good it really was! Rooms were very clean and tidy and everything was well equipped for what you would need towels, plates, bowls etc. lots of tv’s in main living areas and games room. Lots of seating and plenty of places to walk around the site too. Really hard to pick any issues out but if I were to say anything I’d only mention the road leading up to the cottage. It’s very rocky and you have to drive very slowly especially in my little fiesta! Though this would in no way put me off booking again as the place is fantastic! Thank you Anna for having us and we will be keeping you in mind for any stays in the future
