“On a positive I felt our issues were dealt with in a professional and friendly manner by all3 members of staff I spoke to.”

On that my expectations were met. ...

On that my expectations were met. However I have had to rate as expectations not met as when we arrived the property was not clean. Sykes cottages have a reputation for higher end holiday lets. I feel that our property needs some TLC. The garden was unkempt, some of the crockery, glasses and cutlery were not clean. The floors were sticky. It’s such a shame as the property is lovely and in a fabulous position. We would still recommend this property as I’m sure the above issues will be dealt with. A deep clean, lick of paint, sort the garden and maybe some new garden furniture and you have an ace let

- Mrs Lean, April 2019
“Fabulous cottage.”

Excellent location some 15 minutes beautiful field walk to the beach. Two steps from 'Three Horseshoes' pub that is very popular and excellent food. Homely 'shabby chic' feel making it more like a home rather than a sterile 'wipe clean' rental property. Well equipped kitchen, comfortable bed with a good weeks sleep, the long day walks may have something to do with that! Jack our Lurcher was very comfortable and relaxed after days out. It's great to just open the back door in the morning and last thing at night for him and know the garden is truly secure.

- Mrs Banks, March 2019
“Lovely old cottage in beautiful village not too far from the coast.”

2 doors away from an excellent pub restaurant, the food is fantastic. Don’t miss the fish and chip van on the village green Monday night it’s excellent. The cottage is cosy and quaint but the stairs aren’t for the elderly. Short drive to Bridport and many places of interest

- Mr Frankland, February 2019
“Lovely cottage, the second time we have stayed here and really enjoyed it, comfortable and clean.”

- Mr Todd, February 2019
“The fact that we can take 3 dogs is a bonus, not many cottages do this.”

Sykes have the best search engine for requirements when booking holidays.

- Mrs Hawkins, February 2019
“Good location and great walks for us and the dogs.”

Would use again - stayed August 2017

- Mr Richard Whatcott,

Thank you. Stayed New Year 2016

- Mr Mike Todd,
“Lovely place - well equipped.”

Great location. Stayed April 2016

- Mr Aidan McGee,
“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Apple Tree Cottage.”

It's a beautiful thatched cottage next door to the village post office and a stone's throw from the Three Horseshoes pub which does great food and is dog friendly! The cottage is well equipped and cosy with a lovely little garden and patio. It's a short walk to the beach and the West Bay Cafe, and a great spot to travel further afield along the coastal path. We would heartily recommend! Stayed April 2016

- Mrs Roisin Kirby,
“Although we have stayed in Burton Bradstock many times in the past this was our first stay at Apple Tree Cottage.”

We thoroughly enjoyed our week in this lovely cottage. From the initial booking to the end of our holiday everything was smooth and efficient. We will definitely book future holidays with Dream Cottages. Stayed April 2016

- Mrs Susan Gray,
“Lovely cottage in an excellent location with a beautiful garden!”

Stayed June 2018

- Mrs Julia Boswell,
“Great compact cottage for our family of 4 with 2 teenagers, right in the centre of the village, and only 10 minute walk to hive beach.”

Everything we needed for our short break over the lovely bank holiday weekend. Stayed August 2017.

- Mr Adrian Shefford,
“The cottage was perfect for our Christmas stay with dogs.”

On arrival it felt cosy & warm and was festively welcoming with the Christmas tree, mince pies and prosecco - Thankyou. The enclosed garden was a real bonus and the entry into the stone floor of the kitchen was a great buffer area to keep the lounge free of wet dogs. The location was excellent with easy access to the beach and stunning walks on the coastal path. Both pubs in the village were human & dog friendly and served great food. We will be back! Stayed December 2017

- Mrs Artlett,
“The location was perfect, the cottage was perfect too and had everything needed to make for a really lovely holiday.”

Stayed June 2018

- Mrs Christine Fortune,
“Have stayed before and always enjoy my stay.”

Appreciated the new mattress in the main bedroom and the new decor downstairs. Stayed June 2018

- Mrs Nicola Rogers,
“Delightful cottage.”

Felt more like a home than a holiday let. Comfortable and spacious. Ideally situated within walking distance of a lovely beach and next door but one to a great pub with excellent food. Stayed July 2018

- Ms Ruth Ashton,
“Lovely cottage in a beautiful location.”

The property

A chocolate box cottage complete with roses around the door, Apple Tree Cottage is in the heart of Burton Bradstock next to the post office.

This quaint village is made up of cute thatched cottages, twisting country lanes, pretty gardens and a picturesque river.

With it’s cosy sitting room/study and kitchen breakfast room that leads into the cottage garden you can be assured of the full cottage experience.

The village has a shop and choice of two pubs each serving good food and ales and the village tea rooms are there for morning coffee or afternoon tea.

The beach is an easy walk from the cottage and has wonderful cliff views, access to the South West coast path and a highly commended beach cafe called 'The Hive' which serves a variety of local food and drinks.

An outing to West Bay, which is approximately three miles away, gives you a chance to explore the colourful fishing harbour and to sample locally caught crabs and lobsters as well as local ice cream.

Haddon House is often recommended for Sunday lunch.

The Market Town of Bridport with it’s famous antiques market is just 4 miles drive away and worth a visit.

If you dream of finding fossil’s then the beautiful Charmouth beach is a short drive to the west from Apple Tree cottage.
