Positive: Excellent location for exploring central Dorset. Beautiful peaceful garden setting. The hosts gave us a warm welcome and were on hand to recommend local activities even though they had provided a comprehensive manual on the property and the area. The cottage was restored with tasteful decor, quality fittings and a high level of attention to detail. We loved our stay here and would happily return.
Summary: Lovely, lovely, lovely

Positive: This was a fantastic cottage in beautiful, well kept & extensive gardens. The hosts have thought of everything. The cottage was immaculately clean & had everything we needed. The kitchen was fully equipped with a washing machine, microwave, coffee machine & fridge freezer. The living room was cosy & comfortable & upstairs were 2 lovely bedrooms and a shower room. There is also a downstairs toilet. The hosts are friendly & left a welcome pack with bread, milk, eggs & a homemade cake. We enjoyed using the heated outdoor pool. Each cottage has a private patio area with a table, chairs & a bbq. The local pub is a 2 minute walk through a gate at the bottom of the garden. Great location within easy driving distance of Dorchester & tourist attractions. We would definitely recommend Gamekeeper's Cottage & would go back again.
Negative: The staircase is narrow & quite steep, so would not be suitable for those with mobility issues.
Summary: Superb 2 bedroomed holiday cottage
