Fantastic weekend away staying in this lovely large farmhouse. We celebrated with 4 families for my dad's 70th birthday, plenty of space for everyone and had a huge dining table for us to enjoy meals together. Lovely large living room with plenty of seating and ample sized kitchen with another kitchen table for breakfasts. Garden is flat and enclosed so perfect for younger kids, plenty of parking too. Very close to walk into the village which was so pretty, little stream, quaint stone houses and narrow streets and some friendly donkeys. We had a nice fish and chip takeaway from the chipshop too. Highly recommend for a peaceful trip where you have a large family. Highlight for me was the cows too!

Large farmhouse family break.
Large farmhouse family break.
A spacious property well furnished, warm and equipped for our needs. The owner was very helpful and considerate. For the price we were lucky to be able to find it on line. The dairy farm smells were no more than expected . The local village was charming and had good basic stores, including a very good chippy and a helpful chemist.

The accomodation was beautiful.
The accomodation was beautiful.
The accomodation was beautiful. The front of house looks stunning when you approach it. Nice small village with really friendly people. The upstairs of the house was very nice with a washbasin in every room and 3 good sized bathrooms. However with 4 generations on holiday where youngest was 1 and eldest was 89, we missed a downstairs toilet and there was only one washbasin downstairs which was in the kitchen! The garden was small but nice. However the owner's dog left lots of poo so had to be careful especially with one year old. The kitchen was adequate with washing machine and dishwasher which was really useful. The owners were really pleasant and when the hot water was not working it was fixed on the day. If you don't mind the flies (it was a huge working dairy farm) then this place was ideal. They did not bother us at all. Will definitely come back again if there is a downstairs toilet available next time! Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Great holiday at a wonderful location. Handy for visits to Sherborne, Glastenbury, Shaftesbury and Yeovil. Fishing nearby if that is what you like. Plenty of parking (we had 5 cars, space for a dozen on driveway !!) Owners were very friendly and were there if you needed them but left you to your holiday. 10 adults a 7 year old and a 2 1/2 year old all had a great break.

We spent a long-weekend break at Canon Court. We comprised of 3 generations, the youngest was a baby of 10 months and the eldest was celebrating his 70th birthday. There was ample space for all of us, and we all enjoyed the holiday immensely. Minor criticisms would be lack of some basic kitchen equipment such as scissors, kitchen roll, cling film, kitchen foil, oven gloves and bin liners. And no ‘welcome pack’. Upstairs we were surprised that there were no hair dryers in any of the rooms and storage space was minimal. Also, there was no visitors book.

We booked Canon Court for a large family get together (three generations including four children age
We booked Canon Court for a large family get together (three generations including four children aged 10 months to 5 years) and we generally enjoyed our stay. The property was largely as described on the website although there were one or two areas for improvement. It was spacious, clean and peaceful with comfortable beds, sinks in all the bedrooms and generous easy parking which would easily accommodate 10 or more cars! The kitchen was a little small for large parties of people and provided a few challenges over self catered meals. Also there was only one small general waste bin downstairs although the (open) recycling bins in the front porch were emptied daily. Other reviewers have mentioned the issue of dog poo which sadly has yet to be addressed as we were visited several times by a friendly pooch from next door who left his calling card on the adjoining lawn, which unfortunately meant that we were unable to let our grandchildren play outside unsupervised. One other issue was the super-creaky floorboards (and squeaky door handles!) upstairs which made night-time movement a little difficult as we tried not to disturb four sleeping children. Drawer and wardrobe space in the bedrooms was also very limited. All in all though, as long as some of the issues mentioned above are addressed, we would very likely consider staying here again as the property was ideally positioned for accessing numerous attractions within an hour’s drive and was generally good value for a booking in mid-August.
