What guests are saying
A very comfortable, spacious holiday cottage in a beautiful village simply stuffed with covetable thatched properties!
Be sure to do the Village Trail which takes you around them all. We especially enjoyed the light-filled conservatory and the pretty garden. The cottage is well-equipped, although a vegetable peeler and some cling film and foil would have been appreciated in the kitchen. It was very clean, except for the en suite shower room, which was essentially fine but for the shower cubicle sealant and underneath the sliding doors, which could have done with some attention. There’s lots to do in the area and the lovely Hive Beach is just a 20 minute walk from the cottage.
Stable cottage is a charming cottage in a beautiful village.
It is a comfortable home-from-home to return to after exploring this wonderful area of Dorset. Everything is laid on to relax after a day’s exploring. I would definitely stay here again.
We loved Stable Cottage.
It was v comfortable, full of light, wonderfully stylish and the owners had thought of everything to make our stay a success. We had lots of room, a pretty garden with a summer house and a great kitchen. We will definitely book again.
