What our customers say about their holidays
G - Verified booking
We booked Mappowder cottage, as we were waiting to move into our new house which was taking longer than expected to complete.
The cottage was very comfy, cosy and warm during a very cold spell in late November early December. We had everything we needed to make our stay a very pleasant one. The bedrooms were particularly splendid with beautiful crisp white cotton linen and huge cushions which gave a touch of understated decadence. The bathroom again was beautifully clean and bright with a rather magnificent roll top bath. We found Elizabeth and her husband to be very kind and considerate hosts. As we were staying in the cottage for a month, it was like a home from home, with added the extra of beautiful country views and lovely walks for our dog along the safe and long private driveway to the property. Elizabeth has her own horses stabled a short distance away and has great facilities for horse lovers who want to bring their horse or horses with them on holiday. Even if you are not into horses, it is lovely introduction to meet the two very good-natured horses who make wonderful neighbours. It is a great place for a short on long break, as there is lots to see and do for all ages. It is also a delightful quiet place to spend some time just chilling. We would certainly recommend Mappowder cottage, we would have happily stayed there longer, if we had needed to,

After multiple rescheduling due to Covid restrictions we managed a lovely 5 night break with extended family in this cottage and the one adjoining.
A charming pair of cottages, beautifully presented, well equipped, very warm, in a lovely rural setting. These cottages are down a long private drive, safe for walking and children to ride their bikes. The owners were resident in the country house next to the cottages, they were very welcoming and available if needed. There are stables, a dairy and a riding school which was an added attraction for the children in our party, daily visits to the stable doors to see which ones were occupied, and watching the riders in the riding ménage from Maple cottage windows. . The gardens had outdoor furniture for outside dining. Weymouth beach took us about 50 minutes through beautiful rolling countryside with amazing views. We visited the Gaggle of Geese pub in Buckland Newton for dinner one evening. Excellent food, friendly service and lots of outside space to allow for social distancing. Can recommend, as this was a five minute drive from the cottages. All in all can highly recommend both Mappowder and Maple cottages for a relaxed, rural stay but with easy access to nearby towns and beaches.

The cottage is in the middle of a dairy farm, lovely scenery, and stunning sunsets.
There are also stables on site. Mappowder Cottage is a nice size for a family of four, and dog friendly. Has WiFi, which is great as had two teenagers with us! Some board games, books and dvdâs in the cottage. Magnetic darts and bagatelle were the favourites. Elizabeth and Jeremy, the owners, live next door to the cottages and were very friendly and helpful. Thank you for the wine, flowers and crisps! Great base for exploring Dorset. Bowleaze Beach is dog friendly and parking is right next to beach. We also enjoyed the Heavy Horse Centre, which is also dog friendly. The only problem I had was getting in the bath for a shower, the bath is a lovely roll top, but very high for somebody with a dodgy hip. We had a lovely short break.

We have just returned from a lovely week long break at this little gem of a holiday cottage.
It has everything that you need and is a great home from home. Elizabeth, the owner, was on hand at all times but wasnât unobtrusive and greeted us on arrival, nothing was too much trouble for her. The cottage was really clean and considering the current climate with COVID-19 we felt completely safe. The cottage is out in the sticks with lovely views, walks on the doorstep and a completely secure garden, a must for us as we have a dog. The mobile signal is a bit hit and miss (we were on Vodafone) but that wasnât an issue for us. We would definitely recommend this place and if we visit that area of Dorset again in the future wonât hesitate in booking again. Thank you for allowing us to spend time in your property.

A lovely house, it has all the facilities you need like a home from home with some nice personal touches.
The garden and furniture were perfect for an evening drink and breakfast. Itâs a 20 min walk to the main beach, Asda was a 5min drive,but with a great Londis shop around the corner for the extra bits was a bonus. Off road parking is tight for 2 mid sized cars, but some spaces at times on the front, the only thing to look out for is the gravel off road parking area is used as the local cat tray ! not much you can do about it, but worth a quick scan of the area before venturing out especially with children. On the whole a fabulous comfortable reasonably priced place to stay and would highly recommend it for families and couples.
