Christine “Little acre is situated in an excellent spot for touring Dorset with shops, trains and buses and also a good pub, all within walking distance.”
The cottage itself has everything you need and is extremely clean and comfortable with a lovely garden and very helpful owners. We would definitely return.
- Christine, September 2023Many thanks for your lovely comments about Littleacre and ourselves we are so glad you enjoyed your break with us. Property Owner
Ken “Most helpful hosts, Lyn and Dale.”
Gave us ideas on places to visit. Plus, a lovely welcome pack on arrival. Very much enjoyed our stay and would hope to return.
- Ken, September 2023Mark “As noted on previous posts the property is very clean and well appointed.”
The lawn at the back is shared with the owners who are lovely people and we did not see them that much. There is a very large courtyard to the side of the annex which is very private if you want to use that. We did not have the best of weather and this flagged up one minor point that without the heating on (it was not cold), it was difficult to keep the towels dry - an electric heater into the bathroom radiator would resolve this. The bed is a 4'6" and the shower is quite small so very useable but for larger people like myself and little snug. Beautiful area and all the amenities you could want within easy walking distance. The owners do have rooms above the annex so you can hear them walking about (I did not see this as an issue but if you are a very private person it may be an issue). Very generous parking. The annex is compact but, for two people (and one dog), it was very adequate and did not feel cramped at all. All in all it is exactly as described in the listing and a lovely place to stay.
- Mark, August 2023Thank you for your lovely comments on the accommodation we offer in Wool. I take on board your comments about improvements and will be working them over the winter period. Meanwhile, I offer to tumble dry towels or supply extra Property Owner
Steve “This is a credit to Lynn & Dale who own it.”
It is quiet, private and perfectly situated for all of the local attractions that Dorset has to offer. Great local pubs & a convenience store 2 minutes walk away. Would highly recommend.
- Steve, August 2023Thank you for your kind comments about ourselves, Littleacre and the ideal situation we live in. Your feedback is very much appreciated and pleased you enjoyed your holiday. Property Owner
Christine “Little Acre is fully equipped with everything you could possibly want for a stay.”
It was immaculate and tastefully decorated. You know all the little things you forget to pack and have to buy normally, like handsoap or washing up liquid ir salt and pepper? Not a problem at Little Acre. Lyn has thought of everything. It really felt like home from home. There was a very welcome pack with mik, biscuits, coffee and tea bags. We decided in the end not to bring our elderly dog, but if she had come, it would've been ideal for her. The garden and grounds of Little Acre are stunning. Weather permitting, there's nothing nicer than relaxing over a cuppa in the evening on the patio. The garden Lyn and Dale generously let us share is beautiful and well cared for. The bed was comfortable, the white towels provided fluffy and the limem scrupulously clean. The location very quiet. However all you need is within walking distance. We wandered to the butcher - a few minutes walk - for sausages and pasties - which were delicious, also a shop for groceries and a hardware shop. On a particularly rainy day I even got my hair washed and cut by the local salon who did a very good job. There's a baker the other end of the road (about 15 mins walk) who do extremely tasty cakes, bread etc. Try the Dorset Apple cake - yum! The weather wasn't kind to us but we still found loads to do. We did a family swim with our friends at the Purbeck Sports Centre when we cdn't do the beach..We also visited the Wareham cinema and shopped in Poole. On the rare dry day,s, we enjoyed the beaches, visited Arn and explored Durdle Door. The rain didn't stop us, but we also enjoyed a cosy afternoon or two at Little Acre when the weather was particularly stormy. Lyn and Dale are lovely hosts with an eye for all the things we cd possibly want to make our stay comfortable and they go the extra mile. I washed my beach towels one day in the vain hope it would be sunny enough at some point to dry them. No luck but we came back in the evening to find Lyn had tumble dried them all, which was incredibly thoughtful of her. We gad a thoroughly lovely time and will definitely be returning! Thank you Lyn & Dale!
- Christine, July 2023Wow Property Owner
Mark “Lovely place to stay and the owners next door were very welcoming.”
The location was perfect, especially for our first visit to Dorset as we were able to visit the surrounding areas with ease. We would definitely go back again.
- Mark, July 2023Jessika “We had a lovely family holiday at Little Acres'.”
Lyn was lovely and welcoming. The holiday cottage was clean, perfect and would stay again in the future. I would say though, make sure you bring bottled water with you. The water from the tap is very hard and tasted like salt. Lyn let us use her water filter jug which did ease some of the salitness but would say bottled water is a must. Other than that it was a lovely stay. Thank you Lyn and Dale :)
- Jessika, July 2023Thank you for your kind comments after your holiday at Littleacre, I was pleased to hear your were comfortable and I note your feedback about the water which I will have looked into by our plumber. We look forward to welcoming you back again. Property Owner

Central to all the tourist places most within a short drive. We had a great week there.
- Simon, October 2022Gillian “We had an outstanding and friendly welcome to the property.”
In our opinion, Little Acre should be awarded five stars plus. We appreciated being in such a convenient location to the main road, but it was so very quiet. The property is well maintained and has everything you could possibly need for, "a home away from home," experience. The garden is as beautiful as the pictures show, even though our stay was at the beginning of October. The parking was excellent with plenty of space to turn the car around. Would highly recommend.
- Gillian, October 2022We do appreciate your kind comments about Littleacre and we are glad that you found the accommodation comfortable and homely. We are also pleased that the parking was convenient for you. Property Owner

- Ashleigh, August 2021Derek “Very peaceful cottage, plenty of parking, hosts were excellent”
- Derek, June 2021Anthony “The cottage was super and in a lovely quiet location within good distances for the area, walks, beaches etc.”
The owners Lyn and Dale were warm and welcoming and gave us lots of new places to visit even though we have been to Dorset many times.Their garden was stunning and it was so kind of them to let us share it and enjoy quiet shady afternoons from the heat of the day. A real credit to them and a great addition to the sykes cottages portfolio. We were so happy we have already booked for next year! Tony Susan and Annie Skellern
- Anthony, June 2021Natalie “Lovely property to stay in to explore Dorset.”
Quiet and tranquil location yet so close to all amenities and attractions. We were very comfortable during our stay including our dog who soon made himself at home! The owners were so welcoming and friendly, we would certainly stay recommend to anyone and stay again in the future.
- Natalie, May 2021John “We had a lovely stay at Little Acres, to explore the beautiful Dorset Coast.”
The accommodation was very comfortable,clean, and very well equipped. We had everything we needed, and a very comfortable bed. The Garden is absolutely stunning our Dachshund loved it. The owners were very pleasant and helpful.
- John, May 2021Mike “Forgive me but I’m not sure what Dream cottages added to our experience/visit over what the owners could have done ( and perhaps do) themselves other than convenience of advertising and of course adding to the overall cost to us!”
Although all communications were helpful and the phone ones enjoyable and friendly. We were very happy indeed with our stay. Little Acre was great, warm, comfortable in the main and well equipped. Lyn and Dale were kind and helpful hosts. It gave us the relaxing break we needed and the lovely garden, amazing bird life and patio to enjoy the sunshine from were all bonuses. The added treats of tea bags, coffee, milk and biscuits were a generous treat! Thank you! Two minor negatives that didn’t really detract but might for others - the bed was not too comfy and it was good to get back to our own perhaps it needs replacing at the end of this season. Also all the pans are large especially for two people at least one smaller one would help to cook porridge, scrambled egg, mushrooms and other things which do not need much space. Admittedly we couldn’t dine out fully because of Covid regs but even so cooking for two needs facilitating as well as possible. To repeat - we had a very good and enjoyable stay and are grateful to Lyn and Dale very much for that. We would return willingly.
- Mike, May 2021Thank you for your valuable feedback, we are pleased that you had an enjoyable relaxing break. We are sorry that you found the bed uncomfortable. The owner will look into this as the bed is only a year old. We look forward to welcoming you back to Little Acre soon. Property Owner

Excellent
- Michael, October 2020Linda “Little acre was a lovely little retreat to return to after each day out exploring the Dorset coast.”

- Johanna, August 2020Sally “We received a very warm welcome from Lyn, the owner.”
There was s lovely welcome pack waiting for us. The accommodation itself was perfect. Absolutely spotlessly clean and with all we needed for our holiday. A real ‘ home from home’. The patio was used most evenings after exploring the surrounding areas. Little Acres is an ideal base to get around Dorset. We used car, bicycles and train ( station just 5 minutes away). Very comfortable bed and lovely quiet location. We booked this at fairly short notice due To cancelling our overseas holiday during Covid19 - but we will definitely be returning. Five stars ⭐️ all round.
- Sally, July 2020Peter “Lyn was lovely and friendly and went above and beyond with all the little extras that she includes as part of your stay, it really does make it feel home from home.”

We were welcomed by the owner and found everything to be as stated. The accommodation was well appointed and clean and we were able to use the garden which was great as we had our dog with us. Lovely and central for the Jurassic Coast too. Five stars all round! The weather was fantastic and we visited many places on the coast including West Bay and Bridport and used the steam train to Swanage and then enjoyed the pier. No roadworks, hardly a traffic jam and clean towns and seaside. Give Dorset a go!
- Christine, August 2019Josie “Lyn and Dale were friendly and helpful.”
Despite that fact that we have visited family in the area over the last 40years, Dale told us about some hidden gems we had not visited. The cottage was perfect, with everything you might need to hand. It is central to lots of the local attractions. The cottage is in a tranquil situation, though not far from the village, and the garden is beautiful. We would not hesitate to book this cottage in the future.
- Josie, July 2019Geoff “Little Acre in Wool is a very comfortable base for a couple to explore Dorset.”
The garden is beautiful and a great place to sit out for breakfast.

- Mr John Thompson, Aug 2018Mr Scott “Over the past few years we have stayed at quite a few cottages up and down the country.”

One day we even stuck some washing out as we looked at the BBC weather forecast (fatal - guaranteed to be wrong). Came home to a line full dripping wet through. Next thing. Owner knocking at the door with some dry stuff. What more can you say. Even though it's a right hike to get there. We would return. Stayed May 2018
