Beautiful spot for a relaxed family stay
Beautiful cottage with a fabulous fireplace, a must for a winter break. The setting on a working farm was just lovely and the children were treated to a visit to the lambs, calves and ducklings. The hosts were so helpful. Would love to return. Thank you

A lovely cottage with a great fire burner.
A lovely cottage with a great fire burner. We received a lovely welcome from the owner and she very kindly supplied us with some fresh eggs from the chickens. The cottage is located in a small village outside of Sherbourne with Sherbourne itself having several nice pubs/restaurants to eat in if you don’t fancy cooking. Would highly recommend Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

The only problem I think we had was possibly the location in North Dorset but I think that was more
The only problem I think we had was possibly the location in North Dorset but I think that was more our fault of the property itself. The property itself was well equipped and clean and it was handy having the owner next door. Overall great value for money and a peaceful location .
