“Our holiday was brilliant, I took my parents away with us this year.”

The house was out base station, it was all nice and clean, everything to hand we needed, clear instructions to follow should there be a problem. It was great to go back to after a pleasurable day to sit, relax and discuss our plans for the following day.

“We've had a lovely break at Audrey Cottage.”

It is in a beautiful village not far from Weymouth. We've enjoyed the peace and quiet. The location was perfect for walking and bird watching. The walk to the Fleet was beautiful the views were fantastic. The cottage was well equipped for cooking at home. We also enjoyed a few meals at the local elm tree pub. My only request would've been to have a bbq so that we could've enjoyed the out door space more. We have truly enjoyed our stay and hope to return next year.

- Ms Parry, July 2019
“A nice cosy cottage which was spacious and well presented, in an excellent quiet village location, acting as an ideal base for exploring wider Dorset.”

A couple of points to note: i). the heating, which was needed in the evenings, did not work consistently in all rooms per the instructions and seemed overly complicated. ii). we were very surprised that there was no separation of rubbish, recycling and glass in order to be dispossed of in the "normal" way. We noted the council policy re rubbish collection, highlighted in your welcome brochure, which seems very strange. Having stayed in several cottages for May half term in recent years, in Norfolk, Devon and Northumberland, there has always been a normal collection of rubbish and separate recycling by the council and given the size of the property is approximately equal to a normal family home I canot understand why the council would not treat it in the same way as others in the village in order ot promote recycling. It did seem odd that we had to throw everything away in 1 rubbish bin, given the current climate of promoting recycling as much as possible. However other than this the house was a great place to stay for our week away.

- Mr Sinclair, May 2019
“We had a wonderful stay at the beautiful Audrey's Cottage.”

The spacious cottage itself was perfect for our family with everything we needed and much larger than we thought when booking. The village of Langton Herring is so pretty and the local pub served wonderful food. A very memorable holiday. Stayed July 2018

- Mrs Kelly Powell,
“Beautiful cottage full of everything we could ask for and more.”

Ideally located and very spacious. Would definitely recommend. Stayed July 2018.

- Mrs Andrea Whiting,
“Audrey's Cottage proved to be the perfect holiday bolthole.”

Bright, spacious and well-furnished, its location was ideal for exploring the surrounding countryside. Nice local pub, excellent walks for the dog, the only thing I would want to change would be to have a shop in the village! We'd definitely book again and heartily recommend it to others

- Ms Caroline Montgomery,
“The cottage was in a lovely quiet setting, with parking outside.”

Very handy for the local pub, where the food was very good and there was a good choice of beers and ciders. Excellent facilities, a very well equipped kitchen and comfortable accommodation. Lots to see in the area – Stayed July 2017.

- Mrs Isabel Ayres,
“Lovely cottage, photographs on web site do not do it justice as it was much bigger than expected.”

Very clean and comfortable, one of the best cottages my sisters and I have stayed in. Lovely quiet out of the way village but only a short drive to most local attractions. Would definitely return to this beautiful area to see the things we missed and stay in this lovely cottage again - stayed June 2017

- Mrs Vera Sharp,
“A very well equipped high quality cottage in a perfect location.”

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cottage with added bonus of a pub serving very good within walking distance. The area provided some excellent walks with our dog ,the coastal scenery was breathtaking. We would certainly like to return to the cottage sometime next year. Stayed November 2016

- Mr Stutchbury,
“Our stay at Audrey's Cottage was just perfect.”

The cottage itself was spotlessly clean and well maintained. We wanted for nothing. Whoever cleans and preps this property needs congratulating as it was a pleasure to arrive and be greeted with a real" home from home". A few observations that might make others stay as good as ours or even better. There were a couple of mugs in the kitchen that had chips out of the rim and some of the downstairs doors could do with easing as they are difficult to close properly. None of this detracted from our stay. If we stay in the area again we would not hesitate to use you and your properties . We will recommend you to friends and family. Keep up the good work. Many thanks. Stayed September 2016

- Mr Nigel Baldock,
“Beautiful and very well equipped.”

The LED nightlights at the top and bottom of the stairs, cutlery drawer containing everything you might need and clear information sheets about all appliances are good examples of the large amount of thought that has gone into making this cottage an inviting place to stay. Stayed March 2016

- Miss Rebecca Tinham,
“Audrey's Cottage was perfect for us.”

We did have a small problem with the heating but this was sorted both quickly and efficiently by a member of the Dream Cottages team based in Weymouth. As it was christmas time we thought there would be a real problem but this was unfounded. Stayed December 2015

- Mr Duncan,
“Lovely spacious property for two families and lovely sunny enclosed garden for two dogs to play in.”

Stayed August 2015
