Gardener's Cottage was perfect for our winter family get together: extremely comfortable, spotlessly clean, warm, cosy, plentiful firewood for woodburner. The garden was amazing and worth a wander, even in the rain. The owners, who live beside the house, were so kind and keen to add in anything that might improve our stay. We would love to return....

A beautiful setting for singles, couples and families. Lots to do locally and further afield. Delightful owners, happy to advise about the local area and amenities, if required.

I loved this cottage. LOVED it!!!! Gardener’s Cottage is a haven of tranquility in the heart of a chocolate box Dorset village. It is set amidst glorious countryside, so perfect for hikes….if you can tear yourself away from the cottage and its spectacular gardens. There is even the use of a well kept pool. The owners live onsite and are very much on hand but not intrusive. They even sell homemade condiments and cakes and many of the ingredients are sourced from the vast fruit, veg and herb garden they maintain in the vast grounds. When we arrived at the cottage, we were blown away by the secret garden style setting. There’s a gate at the bottom that leads to the Gaggle of Geese pub too. We did not go in there this time but it looked to be a very pleasant pub. Thank you to Adele and Nige for the most wonderful stay and for being so kind to the children too. As two busy mums meeting up to spend the weekend with our children coming along too, we were pleasantly surprised to have even found downtime for chilled wine and chats whilst the children played in an idyllic setting. That’s thanks to the set up of these gorgeous, well-appointed cottages. Thank you. ...

A beautiful cottage in a peaceful location. Very clean and comfortable with a very warm welcome from the owners. Also, it was pet-free, which was important because we are allergic to pet fur. The homemade cake was delicious alongside the bread, eggs, milk and butter. The children thoroughly enjoyed the play area too!...

We loved our stay at the cottage. The property was immaculate. Our hosts, Nigel and Adele were wonderfully kind and considerate even waiting to greet us after our later arrival. The touches of groceries and amazing cake left for us were lovely and the cottage itself was beautifully decorated and perfectly equipped for our family of six. Thanks to Nigel for his amazing local recommendations, we especially loved ‘The Thimble Inn’. We look forward to visiting the cottage again and if you are looking for somewhere glorious to stay, you could not wish for anywhere more perfect....
