This cottage was charming and welcoming. The location was idyllic, it was well-equipped and the beds were the most comfortable that we had ever slept in! The cottage was embraced by a wonderful setting, including an art gallery, farm shop, boutique and lovely restaurant (where we ate several times) the food was locally sourced and delicious. AlthouRead moregh surrounded by these excellent facilities, the cottage was still very peaceful. There were lots of interesting places and beaches nearby. Hide

Very pretty, well equipped cottage, wonderfully situated in the courtyard of the estate, with lovely shops & cafe. Very uncomfortable pillows though suggest you bring your own.

Had a lovely stay at the dog friendly Dorset Hideaway, loved the estate shops & surrounding area & walks. It was lovely & peaceful, lovely having a coffee or a drink in the pretty garden. The staff were all very friendly, there is a wonderful old pub nearby too. The Symondsbury Estate is central to lots of lovely places to visit eg. West Bay, BridpRead moreort, Lyme Regis, Bourton Bradstock & many more. The cottage was well stocked, with lovely clean comfortable beds just a few minor issues easily sorted. Hide

A beautiful location, ideal for a break away from it all, you don't have to venture far to relax and unwind. The option for a breakfast across the courtyard or a pub meal, a short stroll from the front door, or just hunker down after a long walk, with the log fire and something from the farm shop! We found the beds particularly comfortable and slepRead moret so well, possibly due to the fresh air and all of the above! Hide

We were delighted to find a place to stay in Symondsbury. The cottage is just perfect, and there are glorious walks right from the door. A short drive will take you to some wild and wonderful hikes along the South West Coast Path. Our labrador was in paradise! The view from Colmers Hill - a short walk from the cottage - is spectacular. We slept welRead morel, thanks to very comfy beds and no street lights. The local pub is welcoming with good food, and there are other good pubs nearby. We'll be back. Hide
