“Perfect cottage in a beautiful village”

Lovely thatched cottage with good high ceilings downstairs at least. Perfect for 2 looking for a quiet walking break, with a choice of 3 pubs and a tea shop within a couple of hundred yards. Sophie lives 2 doors away and was very helpful before and during our stay. Just what we wanted.

Do not miss the experience, there’s plenty to see and do all within easy driving distance. Local hostelries were friendly and good food was on the menu. Little Thatch an experience not to be missed.

“All you need in a charming cottage”

Comfortable, quiet, charming cottage. All mod cons, wonderfully comfortable bed in the master and efficient heating. Sophie the owner had left staples such as milk, tea and coffee etc. with treats such as posh bisciuts! A nice touch were the orchid plants in the lounge and upstairs bathroom. Cerne Abbas is a beautiful village with pubs, a well stocked shop and a great tearoom, the village is also an excellent base for touring beautiful Dorset. Would return in a heartbeat!

“Lovely, comfortable and well-appointed cottage”

Beautiful Thatched cottage in a very friendly picturesque Dorset village. Very cosy traditional cottage but with all modern mod cons. We had a really enjoyable stay and thought Cerne Abbas a wonderfully friendly village with 3 good pubs, an excellent community shop and a lovely tea room/café. would happily holiday here again.

“Beautiful Cottage in a pretty village”

Little Thatch is a grade 2 listed thatched cottage in the village of Cerne Abbas in Dorset. The cottage is very well equipped and an excellent base for exploring West Dorset and beyond. It is kept very clean and the owners have kept it upgraded for their guests. There is a good village shop for essentials and 3 pubs, we tried The New Inn which had a good range of beers, wines and sprits and friendly proprietors. A great place for a relaxing break.

“Holidaying in beautiful thatched cottage.”

Upon opening the front door you are immediately in awe of the beautiful interior. State of the art utitliy and kitchen area. Cosy lounge with central heating throughout. There's a choice of bath etc (upstairs) and a shower room etc (downstairs). The cottage is only a few hundred yards from Cerne Abbas village which has a lovely cafe, general store/Post Office, craft/souvenir shop and 3 amazing pubs/restaurants. Excellent location for sightseeing Dorset (Weymouth, Poole etc.,). Highly recommended.

“Charming, cosy, home-from-home with everything you could possibly need.”

This beautiful cottage is a perfect base for discovering Dorset either walking the countryside or driving to the stunning villages and beaches. Everything you could possibly need on your holiday is here, including a lovely welcoming gift. The owners have thoughtfully equipped the cottage from the modern kitchen with dishwasher, the comfortable beds, the cosy lounge and the 2 lovely bathrooms to the lovely garden with sun loungers. Perfectly situated at the edge of Cerne Abbas, with 3 lovely pubs in the village, a lovely coffee shop (serving delicious breakfasts) and a beautiful church. A wonderful place in a wonderful part of the country.

“Lovely little cottage”

Little thatch is a lovely cottage situated in a fantastic little village. The cottage was perfect for our family of 3 - with all the facilities and space for us and our baby that we needed. Cerne Abbas provided us with a great base for our holiday and we visited the 3 local pubs, local shop and park. We travelled easily to the coast and also enjoyed some fabulous walks around the area.

“Perfection in Dorset”

Exquisitely presented thatch cottage in one of the most picturesque villages in Dorset . Tiny and sunny terraced garden and parking right outside the cottage . Roses growing around the windows and so well appointed for a short or long stay . Nothing could be better for a Quintessential English holiday cottage in a charming village with country walks in beautiful unspoilt countryside . Highly recommended for couples especially .

“Charming, well appointed cottage in pictureseque village”

A charming well appointed period cottage, which was beautifully clean and comfortable. The kitchen was the best equipped and laid we have come across in nearly 30 years of renting holiday cottages. Our host Sophie was very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble for her, with a minor issue with the shower fixed promptly and effectively. The village itself is well worth a visit with a number of excellent pubs, a ruined abbey as well as the infamous Cerne Man. The location is ideal for visiting local attractions such as Corfe Castle, the Swanage Railway, the Sherborne Castles, Max Gate and many others. Easy shopping in Dorchester 8 miles away. A great location and one to which we will return.

About the location

CERNE ABBAS

Dorchester 8 miles; Sherborne 12 miles; Yeovil 16 miles; Weymouth 17 miles.

Cerne Abbas is a quintessential, picturesque village in Dorset, and oozing charm and character, it was once voted as Britain's most desirable village! Dating back to Medieval times, the remains of the Benedictine Abbey, around which the village grew, can still be seen today. Today, it's well known for the Cerne Giant, the 180-foot figure of a naked man cut into the steep chalk downlands, which dominates the surrounding landscape. Local facilities abound, including three pubs and a tea room, plus the surrounding countryside is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which offers superb views and great walks. A short drive takes you to Dorchester, Sherborne and the Dorset Jurassic Coast. A truly fascinating area close to many places of interest at any time of the year.

Note: Babes-in-arms and children over 5 only.
