About this cottage rental
Grace Cottage is a very quiet and cosy 1920s semi-detached cottage which is off the beaten track but near the centre of Sydling St Nicholas, a picture-book village surrounded on all sides by gorgeous countryside. An attractive enclosed garden runs round the property on three sides. The ground floor is particularly bright and spacious and the roomy kitchen/dining area is well equipped. The stairs leading to the first floor are equipped with a handrail but they are steeper than average which might affect those with mobility issues. However, there is sleeping accommodation for one on the ground floor, as well as a small shower room/toilet. The main bathroom is on the first floor, along with the two bedrooms (one with king-size bed; the other has two singles). Free phone and wifi is provided.
A friendly award-winning local pub is within easy walking distance and there is a children's playground nearby.
There is one parking space for the cottage but further spaces are available in the lane leading to the cottage and also across the green to the front of the house - you might be lucky and see a kingfisher darting up the stream there!
Grace Cottage is much loved by several longstanding visitors, who have been coming here for ten years and more. Sydling is a very friendly village and while the cottage is perfect for those wanting a quiet break in an unspoilt area, there is also plenty to see and do within easy reach.

Exactly as described, lovely property in a beautiful village. Emily was very helpful before check in and lovely when we arrived and spoke to her. All equipment needed to cook etc and very clean. Lovely touch with the welcome treats. A lovely little break

We have been lucky enough to stay at Grace cottage a number of times over the years. It remains a firm family favourite. The house and garden feel like a home away from home.The area itself is a lovely place to stay, with a little park nearby, a lovely stream to walk along and a friendly pub a short walk away.Plenty to see locally with Dorchester a short drive away.

As soon as we walked through the front door we knew we had picked a winner. It has such a good atmosphere with everything to make you welcome and comfortable. The location is perfect for seeing the area , plus loads of wonderful gardens and houses to explore. Dorset is a very friendly county too, we would recommend it to everyone.
