“Very steep steps up to bedrooms and low beams .”

Head was hit several times, but its a lovely quaint cottage .Burton Bradstock a lovely village and a short walk to the beach .We will go again Thankyou.

- Mr Tidby, May 2019
“Very disappointed with the cottage.”

It was very small and even though it had two bedrooms which would have accommodated three people there was only one small sofa and no other comfortable chair to sit on. Also the cottage is situated on the corner of the main road through the village and there was constant noise from the traffic throughout the day. We love Burton Bradstock but would not stay in that cottage again.

- Mrs Morris, May 2019
“The village was absolutely beautiful”

- Mr Dickman, May 2019
“We have been to Doormouse cottage about 5 times and are going to book again for september.”

Always a pleasure going there. It is like our second home and we are considered a local at the pub near us. Thoroughly recommend.

- Ms Ablett, April 2019
“Dormouse Cottage in Burton-Bradstock was in an excellent location and had everything we needed.”

Two good pubs and two shops in the village and walking distance to the beach and Hive Cafe. Great for dog walks. The dogs enjoyed themselves as much as we did. It’s location works well as plenty of villages and towns within driving distance, Bridport is only ten minutes down the road and definitely worth a visit. A few things to note if choosing Dormouse Cottage, the ceilings are low with beams so when you have a 6’3” husband be warned!! Also it is on a very busy coastal road so if you’re looking for a peaceful country Cottage, it’s not. Please could you ask the owner to update items in the kitchen.......you have to fight with the can opener! I would throw it away and buy a new one. A non stick frying pan would be good and some decent saucepans that ‘all’ have lids. We had a lovely stay thank you x

- Mrs Evans, April 2019
“Cottage was lovely but not hugely clean (carpets and sofa especially) Could do with checking crockery and cutlery availability (we left you a bottle opener) Listing needs to say that there is a hairdryer available as we brought one.”

- Mr Jones, March 2019
“Very good experience overall, the bed and linen were excellent.”

Stayed June 2018

- Mrs Maggie Markham,
“Excellent service by staff.”

Very helpful. Stayed May 2017

- Mr Stephen Mcvey,
“Lovely small cottage, just perfect for myself and my two daughters.”

All facilities as described and perfect location for the beach, Burton Bradstock, Abbotsbury and Bridport. This is the second time we have booked with Dream Cottages and we will do so again as their properties are all of a very high quality. Stayed April 2017

- Mrs Nunns,
“Super little cottage - stayed September 2016”

- Mrs Sue Ellis,
“The cottage was absolutely beautiful.”

The cosy living room had everything I needed. The kitchen provided much to make the stay relaxing. I loved the bedrooms and the bathroom was spacious. The addition of the back terrace allowed me time to sit in the Dorset sun with a glass of wine. I highly recommend Dormouse Cottage. Stayed May 2016

- Mr Fagan,
“The cottage was spotlessly clean, sweet and cosy, in an excellent location.”

We had everything we needed and the beautiful walks were amazing and loved by our Springer Spaniel. The walk to the beach was 11 minutes over the cliff top where there was a lovely restaurant / cafe. The pubs in the village were great and friendly with lovely food. We couldn't have asked for anything more. Dream Cottages provided an excellent service and everything was as they said it would be. They are even returning a pair of boots that I left in the cottage by mistake. Highly recommended all round. Stayed March 2016
