Dorset Cottage Reviews

Laura

We had a fantastic time at this charming old farmhouse. Itâ€™s really cosy and warm, perfect for a relaxing break. The views across the fields are stunning and super peaceful. The hot tub was a real highlight, even in November we made good use of it! Plus, the trampoline was a nice surprise. Great spot, not far from the coastand we'd happily return anytime. Really loved it!

Sam

We had such a lovely stay! The view was absolutely stunningand the house itself was really comfortable. Switching all the beds to singles was a big bonus for us. The garden was perfect with the hot tub, trampolineand ping pong - kids loved it! The slope meant no cricket, but plenty of football instead. Walking to the pub is possible, but often itâ€™s closed on the way back, so most places are a car ride away. Dorset truly is a beautiful county with peaceful spots if you explore a bit.

Emma

The cottage was lovely, with stunning views and super comfy, spotless bedrooms. The big dining table was great for family dinners. Kids loved the trampoline and ping pong!

Emma Carter

We had a lovely stay! The farmhouse was super cosy and had everything we needed. The location was just stunning, with amazing views and a really peaceful vibe. The enclosed garden was perfect for our two setters and the kids loved the trampoline and table tennis. Even with the unpredictable weather, we made good use of the hot tub. Thereâ€™s so much to explore nearby, a week honestly flew by. Thanks for a fantastic week, weâ€™ll definitely be back!

Emma Carter

Lovely cosy cottage with stunning views, ample parkingand peaceful surroundings.

From the moment we arrived at Dorset Cottage, we felt right at home. The place is spacious enough for a big family but still feels cosy and inviting. The layout makes everything easy to find and useand the decor is spot on. The garden is beautifully maintained with a view thatâ€™s truly breathtaking.

Oliver

We stayed at this lovely farmhouse and loved how spacious it was. The bedrooms were super comfyand the kitchen had all the essentials plus some nice welcoming touches. The big round dining table was perfect for meals, though a bit large for board games. The hot tub with that stunning view is a must-try, especially at sunset. Overall, a fantastic getaway!

Emma

We loved the houseâ€™s prime spot and how well it was furnished-really good quality everywhere. Itâ€™s a bonus having plenty of glasses, crockeryand cutlery, way more than usual. Definitely recommend! The Spyway Inn is a must, lovely staff and tasty food too.

Emma

The cottage is gorgeous and fully stocked with everything you might need. We loved it! Just a heads up, the lane to the farmhouse can flood if itâ€™s bad weather, so mind your car.

Emma Clarke

We had a lovely stay at Bilshay Farmhouse! Itâ€™s great for families with different ages, plenty of space for three families like ours - 6 adults and 3 kids. Despite the unpredictable weather, the kids loved the hot tub, trampolineand games room. The location is peaceful and handy for exploring Bridport and nearby spots. Any minor issues we had were sorted out swiftly by Trevor and Sam. Thanks a lot for a great break!

Emma

We had such a lovely time at the cottage. The bedrooms were really spacious and it felt super cosy despite being a large property. The views and outdoor space were gorgeous. Honestly didn't want to leave - perfect spot for celebrating my dad's surprise 60th birthday!

Emma

Lovely stay, would return

We loved the location and the overall stay was really enjoyable. A few bits like the washing machine and cutlery holder need fixing, but it didnâ€™t ruin our holiday at all!

Emma

The house was truly lovelyand the garden with countryside views was breathtaking. Plenty of gear for our group of nineand nearby towns and beaches were easily accessible. We really enjoyed it!

Emma Clarke

The farmhouse was super cosy and had stunning views, perfect for relaxing. We loved being near Bridport and the coast. Sadly, the hot tub was a bit dirty at first, but it got sorted after a few days.

Emma

Lovely peaceful cottage, just a short walk to a fantastic cafe. Weâ€™d definitely come again!

Emma Clarke

We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely cottage! The setting is stunning and peaceful, perfect for a relaxing weekend. The house itself is beautifully decorated and super cosy, especially on a chilly January day. The hot tub was a highlight, nice and warm, though a bit tricky to adjust. We did have some trouble with water pressure, which meant showers and flushing werenâ€™t always smooth, likely because of the rural location and spring-fed water. Still, overall a lovely place to unwind!

Emma

We had a lovely week over Christmas with nine of us. The farmhouse was gorgeous, with breathtaking views of the countryside. The hot tub was a real highlightand the beds were super comfy. The nearby pub served delicious food too.

Emma

We loved the spacious house and the serene setting. Perfect for relaxing after long walks, especially with the hot tub! Youâ€™ll need a car to really see the area or find somewhere to eat, but itâ€™s a lovely spot overall.
