Had a fabulous relaxing break in the Dorchester cottage. Comfortable beds, quiet and peaceful, great nights sleep. The enclosed garden a godsend for us holidaying with the dog. Lovely area to tour around . Pub on site and all the staff very friendly and helpful. Food was excellent the night we dined at the pub. We will definitely return to these cottages.

A wonderful time yet again at one of the cottages opposite to the Cross Keys Inn. Brilliant communication from Jayne prior to my stay. On arrival as always, found the cottage to be prepared for my stay to an exceptional standard. Staff are all very friendly and most definitely a 5* vacation. Can’t wait for my first stay in 2026!

Jayne and her fantastic team as always, prepared the cottage for my stay to a 5* standard. I have stopped in a number of different cottages at this location in 2025 and I have without fail always found the properties to be immaculately clean. In #2 there is a nice L shaped sofa to settle down on in front of the smart TV. A well equipped kitchen and very comfortable bed. Lovely hot power shower in the morning. Excellent short break!!
