Owners were delightful - friendly and helpful. Cottage spacious, especially downstairs, and had lovely outdoor seating areas and views. Nice being on a working farm and we fed the pigs and enjoyed watching the lambs in the field behind the cottage. We'd recommend it for families with young children as there is plenty of safe space to play. We'd certainly go there again.

We absolutely loved this holiday cottage on a working farm and were made to feel very welcome by owners Terry and Janette. Four of us stayed for a week at the end of September, although we had three available bedrooms to sleep six. The cottage was very comfortable and had everything we needed to eat and stay in during the dark evenings. We did venture out a couple of times at night but discovered that some of the local pub restaurants closed quite early so we drove into Sherborne (12 - 15 mins away). Some of the rural approach roads are quite narrow and passing was a bit tricky, especially tractors in the daytime. We would definitely stay here again.

If you are looking for a home in the country then this is it. Owners were really helpful. Visited Sherborne and Weymouth which was a short drive away.
