Cheerful 6 bedroom property with cinema room.

AmandaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
What a fabulous house for a family break! So much space that for the 11 of us to spread out in,we never felt over crowded. The house was very well equipped,we could all comfortably sit down to eat. The garden was very safe for the children to run around in and it was such a quiet area. David was very responsive to any query I had. I think we could be back next year!

Comfy detached rural cottage Devon -hot tub, views

JaneRating, 5 stars4 days ago
We had a lovely relaxing stay, the bedrooms were cosy, all rooms were clean and tidy, and Gill was a friendly and helpful host. The steps between different levels wouldn’t suit everyone, but sitting in the hot tub overlooking the fields listening to the birdsong was sublime!

The Nest

KatarzynaRating, 5 stars3 days ago
First of all, Camilla is an amazing host. Very kind, friendly, very communicative, made sure that my friend and I had everything we needed. It was such a lovely touch to find a box of fresh eggs, milk and biscuits with a lovely welcome card. The place itself was wonderful, the yurt was very cosy, the bed super comfortable, the kitchen had everything that we needed, the bathroom was very warm. It's a very well thought through place with a massive beautiful garden. I only regret we stayed there one night but I feel I will be back. I don't remember last time I felt so relaxed.. Thank you once again for this beautiful experience, Camilla! ☺️🥰

Ganders Cottage at Highway Farm, Bridport

MarkRating, 5 stars8 months ago
We had a lovely stay in Ganders Cottage, with two young children. The cottage was spotlessly clean, pleasant to stay in and we put the patio to good use by having breakfast there every day. We even spotted a pheasant from the garden. The kids enjoyed the cottage and it was very family friendly. We only regret not taking the time to explore the farm and walk the area. The cottage was ideally situated to explore the Jurassic Coast, and we had many lovely outings to the nearby beaches. Charlotte and Robin were great hosts, attentive yet unintrusive, kind and thoughtful. They gave us good tips before and during the stay.
