I would definitely recommend this cottage to others and hope to stay again myself in the future. The hosts Justin and Sally were very welcoming and our stay was extremely enjoyable. The property had everything we needed and was in a great location for visiting Dorset and Devon. ...

We had a fantastic time at Barbridge Cottage and would highly recommend it to others. The cottage was perfect for our family (2 adults and 2 young children), with everything you could possibly need - a real home from home. We were made to feel so welcome by our hosts and the kids loved meeting the Alpacas and other animals. It’s a fantastic location as well; so close to the amazing coastline and in easy reach of shops etc. We had such a fun and relaxing holiday. Can’t wait to visit again. ...
