This is a lovely, well equipped cottage, everything thought of, situated in a pretty and friendly village with a good pub. Would like to return.
Mr Prior September 2025
A lovey cottage and gorgeous cottage garden with good outside spaces. Although it opens on to the road we had no problem parking and it was very quiet. Spotless inside and very well equipped. Our first visit to Dorset but likely to return as such a lot to do. Would have no hesitation in booking Ivy Cottage again, highly recommend....
