What guests are saying
We had really nice week at Broadstones cottage in July 2026.
The owners were very friendly and helpful. Kitchen was fully equipped and excellent views from each room. Very private garden and we spent a lot of our time in the conservatory with 180 degrees view of beautiful fields, farms and mountains. Very short drive to nearby towns beaches and shopping. We would love to visit again and highly recommend to anyone in need of an escape from a busy city life.
Broadstones is absolutely beautiful, peaceful, tranquil, the most beautiful setting.
It gives you total relaxation from the moment you arrive until you leave. Martin and Valerie are so passionate about ensuring you have the most relaxing experience. Some holiday cottages advertise peaceful location, but have other accommodation,either next door or close proximity. We've experienced too many noisy,selfish people, who believe they are entitled to behave however they choose.Staying at Broadstones will guarantee the peaceful holiday you deserve. We would highly recommend to everyone, look no further CHOOSE BROADSTONES - WE WILL BE BACK
The bungalow has an amazing wrap around garden which the dogs loved.
The accommodation was clean, comfortable and in a very peaceful location with everything we needed. There was WIFI and a huge TV so we were able to watch tennis and football in the evenings. It was a short drive to Charmouth beach which has plenty of parking and is dog friendly. We had a very relaxing break at Broadstones.
