    This cottage is clean, cosy and full of useful goodies. Thank you for the local bread, butter, milk, eggs and jam. Coming off an international flight to find we have breakfast in the morning was amazing. The cottage is set behind a secure gate on a country estate so is serene and beautiful. However in 5 mins you can walk to shops, cafes and pubs in the little market town of Wimborne. This is a perfect place to explore from. We absolutely loved it.

    Amazing location, on the edge of Wimborne market town and yet when in the cottage feels so quiet and peaceful. Every detail has been thought of and it is the most lovely, well furnished spacious cottage. We and our friends were so impressed with the cottage and hope to return at some time.

    Lovely cottage, feels like you are in the country but only a short walk into Wimborne. Cottage was cosy and comfortable. Great views all around.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely, cosy cottage. The cottage was very well equipped & the beds were very comfortable. There was a lovely welcome pack of goodies, including fresh eggs & homemade shortbread biscuits & apple juice, & REN toiletries in the bathrooms. The cottage has a rural feel as it overlooks fields but is just a short walk into Wimborne Minster town centre. The town has plenty of lovely shops, cafes & restaurants if you don’t want to cook in the cottage. We would love to return.

    The external photo of the cottage just doesn't really do the property justice; the location was very quiet and restful but the town centre was within easy walking distance. The goodies and flowers that were there on our arrival were very welcoming and appreciated. The property was well equiped, clean and comforable. The downstairs bedroom/bathroom was just right for my disabled sister but probably not so appropriate if a wheelchair is required. The property manager was very understanding when we reported a breakage. You can book with confidence.

    Everything ok other than the beds which could do with an upgrade to justify the cost. We value good quality beds. Garden and surrounding area was excellent and the property was well equipped.
