“This was our second visit to Mimosa.”

As a wheel chair user I find that the cottage meets my needs and I am able to remain independent. I have found that a lot of wheelchair friendly cottages are not as good as they claim to be. Mimosa cottage is all on one level and the fixtures are designed for the disabled. The only minor comments I would make, but not criticisms, are, the beds are a little low and the cottage would benefit from an update. Apart from the steep drive to access the cottage, all other areas are easy to negotiate in ...

As a wheel chair user I find that the cottage meets my needs and I am able to remain independent. I have found that a lot of wheelchair friendly cottages are not as good as they claim to be. Mimosa cottage is all on one level and the fixtures are designed for the disabled. The only minor comments I would make, but not criticisms, are, the beds are a little low and the cottage would benefit from an update. Apart from the steep drive to access the cottage, all other areas are easy to negotiate in a wheelchair. We will be visiting again soon.

- Mr Bailey, October 2019
“A great bungalow style cottage, perfect for my disabled person, me as her carer and her assistance dog.”

Nice touches like the ladder pull up attached to the bed and rising lowering work tops, and cooker in the kitchen made life a lot easier. Level access throughout and an easy push into the gardens and fantastic view. Henry and Sue were lovely and offered any assistance we needed. A short electric scoot to the Manor and Club House restaurants meant that we were spoiled for good food, but cooking at home was just as easy.

- Mr Sherring-lucas, September 2019
“The wet room could of been cleaner around the plug area on floor, it needed a good floor cleaner, one half of toaster not working and it would of been nicer to have a bigger freezer as the small fridge only had a small top freezer not enough room if 4 people staying and you needed ice cream and frozen foods.”

But over all we enjoyed our stay and would return in the future

- Mrs Woodley, August 2019
“There were maintenance issues that would have made a lot of difference to my experience.”

I don't know if D.Cotts are responsible for these or the owners. We did tell the owner about the main one, but attention to a number of small items would have been great. For further reference, who is responsible?

The Facilies are exellent The only down side comment I would make is please take the post code off booking Referance it makes the cottage far harder to find and locate and does not take you too the cottage

- Mr Flynn, March 2019
“Second visit to this cottage and just as welcoming as the first.”

It had been thoughtfully decorated for Christmas and a lovely seasonal welcome pack awaited us. The owners contacted us early on to see if all was well + told us about a local Christmas event which we could join if we wished

- Mrs Mabbott, December 2018
“We were particularly impressed by the helpful owners, Sue and Henry Pearse as they moved a sinlge bed into the double room in order to facilitate the hospital bed my husband had to use.”

Also we found Active Mobility in Dorchester gave good service in delivery and collection of bed - thank you for recommending them to me. Stayed June 2018

- Mrs Joan Cooper,
“Terrific cottage in fantastic location.”

Every conceivable comfort for disabled person and carer and very well laid out. Equally good for any able-bodied family or couple. Well-equipped kitchen with nothing missing. Really couldn't hope for more. Sea view from beautiful garden was magnificent. Stayed July 2018.

- Mr Andrew Seton,
“A lovely cottage, excellent for a family with a wheelchair user.”

Spacious rooms and comfortable beds and pillows. Both adapted toilets are of a high standard. Being set in pleasant gardens with a sea view made it very restful. Parking spaces are very well set out. Stayed June 2018

- Mrs McAdam,
“The thought and care that had been lavished on this property, for instance the irises on the mantelpiece, the grass roof on the annex, lots of table lamps which made it cosy, the garden in particular was a dream & full of lemon balm, rosemary, laburnum, fennel, clematis and a Judus tree in full bloom, plus lots of cow parsley, the useful grabber stick, dog lead & bowl & poo bags (we did have our own), lots of useful hooks in both bathrooms, & by the main door, good mirrors in the bedrooms & by the main door, lovely furniture in the conservatory and lounge area, bird feeders with fat balls in, and the handtowels.”

Stayed May 2018

- Mrs Celia Caulkin,
“We were delighted with the accommodation, it was just perfect, very clean and spacious.”

Lovely peaceful setting, garden surrounding the cottage and sea views from the front. It was a 10 minute walk to the beach and within easy driving distance of Weymouth, Dorchester and Lyme Regis. We will certainly stay there again. Stayed April 2018

The property

Mimosa Cottage located in the Dorset Coastal village of West Bexington, has wonderful views of the World Heritage site Jurassic Coast as well as the rolling hills and patchwork fields of West Dorset.

The cottage is a part of a complex of three holiday cottages with gardens surrounding them all.

Mimosa Cottage is an ideal holiday home for a disabled person and carer and is very well laid out.

It is equally good for any able-bodied family or couple. Guests staying at Mimosa will benefit from wheelchair friendly accommodation with spacious rooms all on one level, including an accessible wet room, conservatory and separate chill out room.

A patio area with tables and chairs is the perfect place to enjoy an alfresco lunch in the sunshine whilst surveying the wonderful views.

Surrounding Mimosa are gardens for you to explore, pockets of lawn are interspersed with paths and an orchard.

You are more than welcome to help yourself to apples and pears in the season.

Take a short walk across the field and you will reach Chesil Beach.

Admire thousands of wintering birds on the Fleet or spot usual Dorset wildlife through binoculars.

If you are ready for more energetic walks, you can head to the beautiful village of Abbotsbury situated a few miles towards the Isle of Portland.

Abbotsbury’s Abbey and Mute Swans Sanctuary & Sub-tropical gardens will make a great day out for everyone in the party to enjoy from children to elderly. A little tea room is within walking distance from the cottage following the path across the field, ideal for a cup of tea after a hearty walk.

There is a farm shop nearby, a supermarket and many other shops are a short drive away in Bridport. Mimosa is the perfect location to relax off the beaten track to the sounds of birds rather than sitting in traffic. Come and enjoy time away from your busy life at Mimosa Cottage.
