Cottage holiday rentals in Dorset

Debbie’s place is a little piece of paradise, the setting is stunning, the gardens are fantastic and the cottage is warm and cosy whilst also being spacious and really well laid out. We had everything we needed and immediately felt at home. The open plan kitchen into the cosy living room left us all feeling connected, utility space was really useful, conservatory with stunning views allowed us to dine together and relax during the day. Outside area is also stunning for meals on the patio and bbq’s and the hot tub was great to relax in on an evening looking at the stars in peace and tranquility.. there’s a slight walk up to the property across a field but once you’re in the cottage and its gardens it’s worth every step. Great for the dogs too. Loads to do in the area, our highlight was Lyme Regis beach.. many thanks to Debbie and everyone who made us feel so welcome. We would go back to Debbie’s place in a heartbeat!

Lovely and peacefu,l we loved our break as did our 2 dogs Archie and Reggie, very safe and secure garden loved the hot tub. Recommend a visit to Dunster lovely place with great castle and grounds.

What a wonderful and truly beautiful home. Was a pleasure to stay in this serene countryside hotspot with a tree house, playground, incredible private lake and surrounding natural beauty. Very special. Can’t recommend enough!

Amazing stay here with my husband. The cottage was perfect for a relaxing and quiet weekend. The breakfast basket was a lovely touch and everything was as described in the listing. Joy is a brilliant host checking in to make sure everything was going smoothly! Would definitely stay again!!

Ruth's cottage was wonderful. The garden is totally fenced so it's dog friendly. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed for our short stay. The bed was comfortable and nicely firm. We enjoyed the hot tub and sitting on the decked terrace when the sun came out. Ruth left us a small food hamper with bread, crisps, bread, milk and wine. Our spaniel enjoyed her walks into the Moreton village and playing in the ford. Moreton village has a walled garden and a cafe, and the church windows are something to see. Also, Lawrence of Arabia is buried in the village grave yard (separate from the church yard)

had a lovely weekend, the cottage was so beautiful, felt magical! everything you need is there, is was comfortable and clean. the local area is also lovely, great walks and little village. will definitely be back.

Helen and Martin were lovely and welcoming hosts. House was so clean, and the beautiful garden so peaceful and private. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, meeting all the gorgeous dogs, relaxing in the hot tub and walking to the local pub - with delicious food. Would thoroughly recommend and will definitely return! Thank you Helen and Martin 😊

A homely and clean accomodation on beautiful settings on a farm, reminding us of memories of staying on farms in our childhood. Approximatley 30 mins from Weymouth where we carried out our bucket list - a visit to Durdle Door by boat, attendning the festival, swimming in the sea, going on the big wheel, eating delicious meals and relaxing in beautiful harbour settings. And where we could return from our days out to relax in our wonderful accomodation, sit in the garden, with a barley field backed on to us, listen to the cows in nearby fields and relax in the hot tub! Spending time together away from the hustle and bustle of life. Our host Jane made us feel very welcome, providing us with helpful information and was at the end of a phone or text if we needed any additional help. Thank you Jane - we made precious memories during our stay

Had to struggle for a while to discover Little Coombe in the tangle of small roads. It later became clear that it is located near the A30 motorway. To then discover the house beautifully set in greenery. Surprised by flowers on the table, treats and brand new eggs. Thank you, Julie! Julie is a very friendly host. Also very discreet. This property being attached to the main house felt completely private, with a delightful garden and views. Comfortable, tastefully decorated, very cosy. The kitchen is also very well equipped. The folder with practical info and ideas was very valuable for us. We enjoyed our stay at Little Coombe and return home with fond memories.

Seafield Cottage is perfectly located with easy access to Lulworth Cove and a number of hiking trails, including Durdle Door and the trails along the cove. Absolutely stunning views. Lovely pubs close by and the salt sauna (which you need to book early if hire going to get a good time!). The cottage was super well equipped, comfortable and clean beds and rooms at a very good standard. The master room at the top of the 3 floors was gorgeous with an ensuite. The bunk bed room is great for kids, less so for overflow adults so really it’s a 2 x double bed property sleeping 4 adults + 2 bunk beds (4 in total) for kids. Emma was super responsive to any questions and gave comprehensive instructions and recommendations for the local area. I’d definitely come back and would recommend.

Had a wonderful solo stay with my dog at Dawn’s place. The cottage was cozy, quiet, and perfect for unwinding. Great local walks right from the door, a friendly dog-welcoming pub nearby, and a real sense of peace. Felt safe and relaxed the whole time —would absolutely return. Thanks for having us Dawn!

This is a beautiful spot which has lovely walks nearby and some amazing walks at local attractions in particular Alfred’s tower - our dogs loved it and so we were able to relax !comfortable accommodation in a beautiful old building the bedroom in particular is gorgeous

We had a brilliant stay at the Pink House! The house itself was beautifully decorated and was warm and inviting - we felt really at home here. Deborah was very friendly and responsive in her communication and sent us lots of local recommendations of things to do and places to visit. The garden was really private and we loved the built in BBQ and home-grown tomatoes and cucumbers, and the welcome basket that we're waiting for us when we arrived. The Pink House is in a great location with walks right from the front door and only 15-30 mins drive to the various beaches. We had a wonderful stay and wished we booked for longer - we'll definitely be back again!

We had a wonderful stay! It was the perfect setting for my partner and I to enjoy our first holiday together. The location was beautiful, peaceful, and made our trip truly special. We felt right at home (and Rowena left very clear instructions, left us some beautifully kind treats in the fridge and on the table which was lovely) and me and my partner couldn’t have asked for a better experience; we’re still talking about the house and the holiday and it’s been a few weeks since we left. Highly recommend & I must thank Rowena for the great hospitality!

Wonderful half term stay at little Gem Cottage. We used it as a base to explore Dorset, Somerset and even drove through Devon. It is well equipped for a baby with a lovely clean highchair. The kitchen was light and well stocked, we cooked every night.

Myrtle Cottage was a lovely place to stay. Clean, well equipped, good facilities & all in the heart of the countryside. A warm welcome was provided by our hosts and dogs. Basic provisions left in the fridge were a bonus. We were given tips on where to eat out & a few ideas of local walks. All in all we had a great stay which was all too brief.

very nice and cosy accomodation, in the middle of nowhere (what we wanted). well equipped. very relaxed stay.

There are not enough words to do this property and Ava justice . It is truly stunning from its location to the laundered bedsheets , super equipped kitchen and so much more . We were made to feel so welcome . Ava and Chris really do go above and beyond . Our son Archie loved it and was encouraged by Ava to explore and see the cows . He really didn’t want to leave . Honestly we all wanted to stay . If you stay here , you will not be disappointed. We are looking for an excuse to come back

This cottage was perfect for our stay full of character and with a garden to sit in Claire was a lovely host and met us on arrival there was wine and milk in the fridge just what we needed would highly recommend this place for a holiday

Kilnside is an exceptionally well appointed, comfortable property situated in the most peaceful surroundings. The views from the lounge and patio are wonderful. The riverside walk into the centre of Lyme from Kilnside is excellent. We enjoyed the opportunity of a ‘car-free day’. Kilnside is exceptionally well equipped. From the range of kitchen equipment to the beautiful white towels in the bathroom, our Host Angela has thought of everything! Her information notes and descriptions which we received in advance of our visit were detailed and very helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated our stay at Kilnside - a 5 Star AirBnB.

Beautiful setting and house was absolutely pristine. The hosts couldnt have been more helpful and responsive. Would definitely recommend.

Amazing stay in the place, Lovely pubs around & friendly faces. Clean space and Petra very attentive and easy instructions to get access to the house. Thankyou for our stay Petra! x

The place is fantastic, secluded and in front of an amazing view of the countryside. Would highly recommend this place, and the host, who was responsive, kind and recommended top quality restaurants and hikes

The dovecote was well equiped, clean and comfortable in a rural location, but within easy drive of Salisbury. The Dovecote is part of a courtyard complex with the outside space at the front of the property and, as our stay was midweek, there were vehicles coming and going during the day, and the nearby road was also well used. As we were out exploring during the day this did not pose a problem for us as the evenings and early mornings were very quiet with lovely birdsong to wake up to.
