“We really enjoyed our stay at the Old Cart Shed.”

The accommodation was more spacious than we thought, really clean and well looked after, comfortable and pet friendly. It was great to have a fully working kitchen complete with washing machine & a enclosed outdoor space to enjoy. Would definitely come back and stay for longer next time

“The accommodation was exactly as had been described.”

Quiet, clean, spacious and light and airy. It was unfortunate that the games room was closed, although we had been warned that this was the case.

“Amazing cottage”

A family holiday to Dorset with Grandparents, parents a child under 5 & a dog Our stay at the Old Cart Shed surpassed all expectations, we were over the moon with the standard of the cottage, it's location and the local pubs & restaurants (as recommended by the welcome folder in the cottage) The rooms were great sizes (much bigger than we had expected) the beds comfortable, good quality towels in the bathrooms, the living room furniture was cosy & spacious and the quality of the kitchen ware was excellent! We were also very lucky to have such lovely "neighbours" during our week's holiday and fantastic weather - ice-creams on the beach in the sun on the 1st of October!!! We will definitely being booking to stay here again - thoroughly recommended especially for those of you with dogs looking for a good quality holiday
