White Horse Cottage in Weymouth, Dorset, is a well-loved property praised for its perfect location, comfortable interiors, and friendly village atmosphere. Guests enjoyed the local walks, pub proximity, and the property's garden. Some concerns were raised about driveway access and a few maintenance issues, but overall, the cottage provided a delightful stay.
Reviews are mixed regarding cleanliness. Some guests found the cottage spotless, while others noted dust, cobwebs, and musty smells. The inconsistency leads to a slightly above-average score.
The location is highly praised for its beauty, proximity to the beach, and local walks. The village charm and friendly residents add to the appeal, resulting in a high score.
Guests found the cottage comfortable, with a cosy warmth and spacious layout. The beds were comfy, and the garden provided a pleasant outdoor space, contributing to a high comfort level.
Facilities are generally good, with a well-equipped kitchen and strong internet connection. However, issues with the fridge, bath taps, and driveway access slightly lower the score.
The hosts' thoughtfulness is evident through the mention of a generous welcome pack and prompt assistance with a lost key. While gifts are appreciated, they are not guaranteed for all stays.
With views overlooking rolling Dorset hills and a local pub within walking distance, White Horse Cottage is nestled into the countryside of Sutton Poyntz, near Preston, and is a fantastic getaway for a family or group of friends looking to escape to the coast and countryside of Dorset. Be welcomed by a charming kitchen/diner, flicking on the kettle, and planning a hearty meal, assisted by the ample amenities as the woodburning stove adds countryside ambiance from a bare-stone fireplace separating the kitchen/diner partially from the snug. As the evening wears on, settle down into the charming sitting room beside the open fire and reflect on the day with a glass of your favourite beverage. Freshen up in the bathroom with either a soak in the tup or a warm shower, before settling down into one of the tastefully presented bedrooms, each with storage for your belongings and countryside views, including a king-size, a king-size with en-suite and a twin. Outside, make the most of the fresh air and views of the Poyntz White Horse with alfresco dining as your four-legged companion plays on the lawn, shrouded in mature shrubs and colourful flowers. A rural enclosed garden, suitable for supervised children.
