What our customers say about their holidays

  The cottage is beautiful and reasonably well equipped and would have been a perfect place to relax.

  The heating or lack of it and the lack of hot water due to boiler failure was inexcusable especially as the owner claims she was there in the morning of our stay. The shower head needed changing because of the build up of limescale and we could not wash or shower for the whole 7 days. Rather than coming out to visit the property to help us out the owner sent the plumber 4 times to keep trying to fix the issue. We then had the plumber for 4 days whilst trying to relax. If this happened to my house that I rent out I would be mortified but the owner kept needing to be chased during the holiday and to be honest we felt wasn't really that interested by the fact that she didn't come out to inspect the issue. At the end of the day, I would have refunded 100% as the holiday was not as described due to the lack of relaxing. I would have accepted 50% as a reasonable offer for the complete disastrous holiday. Instead a derisory sum of £200 taken off. The result of this is one disgruntled customer who now feels leaving a bad review for the property. If only the owner would understand the problems that were of her making and the lack of understanding since to her customer

  What a beautiful place to stay!

  Packed full of thoughtful touches, Nora and Martin have stopped at nothing to make our holiday and stay at the Old Byre a truly memorable experience. The Old Byre was ‘home from home’ only better, everything that would make our stay comfortable and enjoyable has been thought about from the most delightful decor, the most comfortable beds, all home comforts as well as essentials, all cooking equipment and kitchen appliances and a helpful welcome basket of goodies to get you started with your first cup of tea taking in the beautiful country garden and surrounding views. The area is a perfect location with limitless places to visit within easy reach including the New Forest on your doorstep and the Jurassic coast with stunning beaches and fun days out like Longleat Safari. Whether you want family days out, full on adventure sports or quite walks and country pubs this location will suit any visitor. We would highly recommend a visit to the Old Byre, be prepared to stay longer than you planned as you won’t want to go home. Thank you Nora and Martin.

  This has to be THE most comfortable well facilitated cottage we have ever stayed in, we couldn't have wanted for more.

  Nora and Martin are on hand at all times if any help was needed. The cottage is beautiful and a true home from home. We felt relaxed as soon as we walked in the door and there is truly everything you could need for a cottage stay and enough games to play for months let alone a week. The attention to the small things is what sets this apart from other self catering cottages from pans, plates, cutlery, spices, more mugs than I've ever seen and more equipment for cooking than we have at home, towels a lovely welcome pack and they went beyond to provide for our twin toddler grandsons. Compared to some places we have stayed where there is just enough for the amount of people staying The Old Byre is streets ahead. If only all holiday let's were this good. Thank you Nora and Martin keep up the great work.

  Bridge Studio is the perfect place in a beautiful setting.

  Alice and Mike made us feel so welcome, including a scrumptious chocolate cake on arrival! The Studio was immaculate and beautifully furnished. Plenty of walks right outside the door, including a stream running across the bottom of the garden. A number of places state they are dog friendly, but the Studio really was- the garden was completely secure so no worries there. It is the ideal place for sightseeing and it was a delight coming back in the evenings ( and a log burner for when it’s chilly!) We so did not want to leave! We rarely go back to the same place, we like seeing different places, but I think we will be with Bridge Studio. Cannot recommend it enough :)

  We have just come back from a lovely stay at the Cosycot.

  The property is very pretty in a quiet location. The beds were so comfortable but I would suggest a darker curtain in the back double bedroom. A few of the windows need fixing, so that they can close properly. The pelican pub is walkable from the cottage along the road or you can go across the field which is quicker. We also took a bus into Salisbury which stops at the bus shelter just a couple of minutes walk from the cottage. It only cost £2.00 & comes once an hour. There is also a lovely church which you can visit. I would recommend the Cosycot for anyone who wants a quiet, relaxing weekend away in the country with special friends.
