We enjoyed a break over the New Year with family.

We enjoyed a break over the New Year with family. From the moment we arrived, it felt comfortable and homely. Given the time of year, a lovely touch from the landlord was the fully dressed Christmas tree. We cannot recommend this house enough for a relaxing enjoyable break in Dorset and hope to book it again ourselves in the future.

Ideal accommodation for a family holiday close to the seaside

Great property. Well-equipped, beautifully appointed, clean and exactly what we required for a multi-generational holiday by the seaside. We particularly liked the garden area - excellent for morning coffee and late afternoon drinks. Good communication with the owner too.

Brilliant time.

Stayed for three days…..beautiful house with loads of character….the children loved exploring… Great days out in the winter sun, then back to a roaring log fire…..fantastic. Great sized rooms, lounge and kitchen both managed all nine of us. Beds were all super comfy with quality duvets and bed linen. En suites everywhere!! We had dinner at the local pub, The Three Horseshoes, and the staff there were excellent, and the food was great. Highly recommend. The owners were very helpful, with a welcome pack on arrival, and were very accommodating when we were struggling to get things, children, and babies together prior to leaving……we will definitely look to book again in the summer…...Many Thanks

Lovely, spacious house: immaculate, comfortable, spotless, warm and well-equipped.

Lovely, spacious house: immaculate, comfortable, spotless, warm and well-equipped. Four bathrooms for five bedrooms which is unheard of in a holiday let. Garden looks lovely but wrong time of year to enjoy it! Burton Bradstock is a great location for all of the Jurassic Coast. There are so many great places to eat and walk, and they are all within easy reach. The sea is a 15 minute stroll away through the beautiful village.

This 5 bed cottage is 5 star.

This 5 bed cottage is 5 star. Taken aback by the huge bedrooms. Fantastic lounge and the most comfortable beds. All bathroom fittings are top quality. The large kitchen diner is excellent for evening meals although the pub next door is also excellent. Plenty of parking space but make sure you are facing the gate after parking as reversing onto the road is tricky. Large garden with ample seating under the apple trees. Fully recommend and looking to rebook. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Wonderful cottage; beautiful rooms, well equipped, lovely garden and courtyard. We had a really special family stay here. The short walk through the village to the beach was the icing on the cake. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
