  When we first arrived the place was absolutely spotless and we felt extremely welcome and right at home especially when we saw there was milk in the fridge and tea, coffee and even some biscuits on the side!

  Perfect quiet place to sit back and relax.. the sofa was extremely comfortable great nights sleep even on the first night which surprised us both because it usually takes us a couple of nights to settle, I guess that's what happens when you sink into the bed and the marshmallow pillows give you a hug. (Haha) All the facilities worked perfectly... the shower was amazing! Very powerful. Nicely situated... perfect for longleat zoo stayers. Or Weymouth visitors (just to name a few) Sadly we had a miscommunication on our end but!!!!!.... The owners Caroline and her husband were extremely kind and understanding and everything got sorted and it was even laughed about! (You may be wondering why I've added this part in... but it was to show you just how lovely they are!) Thanks again, we honestly really do appreciate all the little touches and all the thought that went into keeping us safe during this pandemic era too. We would love to come and stay again! Only this time... (Friday to Friday hehe) All the best! We just wanted to say a huge thank you to you both!

  Though we enjoyed our stay there, it really would have been nice to be able to have our grandsons and son stay over night.

  When I booked it, I had not noticed “can not bring Guests back for overnight stays. Nor was it clearly indicated on the site that “No Children” were allowed. Though We understood the reasoning from the Martins, it was disappointing. However we made do, and had a great stay. The Cottage is convenient to the area we were visiting. It had two bedrooms, clean and comfortable and good parking. We love seeing the deer in the field, a variety of birds and even a rabbit visited. Another amenity of a Washer/Dryer would have been very helpful as well; especially, since it was a rainy week and we were visiting from the US. Mr and Mrs Martin were both very nice and chatted with us when we saw them. The cottage was welcoming and Mrs Martin had left us some cookies (biscuits) along with a beautiful bouquet of flowers.

  Lovely stay at the Studio.

  The property is spotlessly clean and everything you need is supplied (no need to bring anything). You can make a cup of tea when you arrive as Penny makes sure you have fresh milk, even fresh flowers on the table & if you are bringing a pet a supply of dog treats. On a separate note the shower did not have much pressure and wifi was very slow. Just my own personal opinion and is not meant as a criticism as the property is lovely and comfortable. We were visiting friends and know the area well but if you need any help Penny is there to assist. Would highly recommend this property and thank you Penny for a lovely stay.

  Location good with amazing views from the studio, well presented and equipped.

  Details on studio misleading as there is not any seating area downstairs apart from the kitchen chairs , settee upstairs which was very uncomfortable it needed padding out under the seats as sunk in the middle. Double doors needs draught proofing as could see daylight through the middle and bottom the cold wind was blowing through so unable to sit at kitchen table to have a meal. I took my dog and as they are not allowed upstairs which is understandable if it was just a bedroom but as its the main living quarters its a bit unfair for the dog to be left downstairs. otherwise a pleasant stay.

  The cottage was wonderful the booking experience was NOT.

  I didn’t actually book this cottage I booked another somewhere completely different but Sykes screwed up the booking …. Lucked in with this wonderful cottage with 12 hours notice so was super happy. The place is brand new and perfect and the pub is 100m away! Ans it’s got great food. It’s a really brilliant venue for a weekend away from stress and strain of London. Easy to get to. Lots to see and do and plenty of fresh air and sheep! Dog friendly. Silly early check out time we figured was a typo and stayed until 1030 with no problem.
