“Could not get in till five and had to leave by ten.”

So it meant we only had three full days in the cottage , out of the five we paid for. I have never been any where where we have had to strip the beds and empty all bin.

Mrs Vickery September 2021

“A little more equipment for family cooking in the kitchen would have been appreciated.”

The 'nearby' farm came with more surprises than we expected!

- Mrs Vickery, September 2021
Mr Atkinson August 2021

“The parking is inadequate, it’s up is gravel slope with a very tight turn into a tight space that is also sloped, not good when there is an abandoned car in a space that would be a lot easier to park in.”

- Mr Atkinson, August 2021
Mrs Carter July 2021

“Cottage was lovely and clean and great location .”

Garden could do with some attention. I was very worried about parking situation as we had 3 cars but we were very lucky and the neighbour gave us some parking spaces which made things a lot easier.

- Mrs Carter, July 2021
Mrs Summers July 2021

“We loved. Blossom cottage, it had everything we needed, beds were comfy, kitchen was fabulous.”

.had everything we needed, though the flies were a real nuisance ! I guess having the farm behind the cottage has its drawbacks…but there were plenty flyswatters! Also the fridges in the farm make a dreadful noise coming on and off through the night.. but that said , we enjoyed our week and loved blossom cottage.

- Mrs Summers, July 2021
Mrs Davis July 2021

“This was the third stay for us and we love the cottage but the cleanliness was dreadful crumbs everywhere dorty floors spent arrival cleaning floors and kitchen plus vacuuming and since you cannot arrive till late due to cleaning etc for Covid this was terrible.”

Parking still an issue but we managed.

- Mrs Davis, July 2021
Mr Carman July 2021

“Beautiful cottage and mostly everything was great.”

Let down by a few issues with cleanliness downstairs. Inside of the pedal bin in the kitchen was very dirty with dried food waste abundant in the bottom. General cleanliness of the surfaces in the conservatory and kitchen was poor with sticky table tops, smeared finger marks on the windows, etc. Retractable washing line in garden completely broken and patio area very grubby and needs a though jet washing. All bathrooms and bedrooms absolutely fine. Please emphasise more that there is parking for one vehicle only as it is very difficult to park locally.

- Mr Carman, July 2021
Mr Critchley June 2021

“Great location of the cottage, perfect for exploring.”

Cottage is a great size.

- Mr Critchley, June 2021
Mrs Holder May 2021

“Everything about the property was good and no complaints.”

However I feel I need to mention that the resident opposite the cottage was very rude to me and hostile whilst we were there. She clearly didn’t like having holiday makers staying near to her property. I think the owners of Blossom cottage should have a word with her about her attitude.

- Mrs Holder, May 2021
Mrs Dawes May 2021

“A most enjoyable holiday, all the facilities we required, and more.”

! Very clean and well equipped cottage. Perfect location for touring !!!

- Mrs Dawes, May 2021
Mrs Davis October 2020

“Just perfect, this stay was our second in 3mths Wifi this visit was very slow ...”

Just perfect, this stay was our second in 3mths Wifi this visit was very slow noticed the hub had moved from last time but not sure if it made a difference but otherwise great holiday and will be booking again next year

- Mrs Davis, October 2020
Miss Gibbons September 2020

“Great cottage and plenty of space for six adults.”

Only thing is the parking which is an issue and also lack of wardrobes to hang up clothes. Also, the nearby pub is permanently closed so there are none which are walking distance as the website suggested. Other than that- perfect cottage with all the facilities we needed. Very spacious and good location to drive to the nearby sights- Weymouth, Durdle door and Lulworth cove. Would definitely return!

- Miss Gibbons, September 2020
Mrs Hollis July 2020

“My only problem with this accommodation was the parking .”

it was almost impossible to get a 7 seater mpv into it and when we were in you couldn’t get out of the car so we had to disembark before parking . there was a better parking space with a car wreck rotting in it . I don’t know if this was owned by the same people but if so it would be great to move or dump the wreck and use that parking space !

- Mrs Hollis, July 2020
Mrs Davis July 2020

“Blossom cottage was beautiful everything you expect of a thatched cottage and very roomy there were 6 and a little one in our group and there was plenty of room have booked another stay for October already.”

Had a couple of issues cleanliness could have been better floors were very dirty and spiders in all curtains which were promptly hoovered and the rug in the living room had what looked like slug trails on it, only other down side is parking we were lucky to find help across the road for one if our cars little bedroom bed could have been more comfy but one of our best holidays looking forward to our next stay.

- Mrs Davis, July 2020
Mr Allen December 2019

“The only negative about this property is the parking.”

The accommodation is clean tidy and has all the modern facilities necessary for a holiday cottage.

- Mr Allen, December 2019
Mrs Perkins October 2019

“Blossom cottage was absolutely lovely.”

Plenty of space. Comfy beds, well equipped. Lovely and warm. Great location in a beautiful little village. Under the sofas could do with a vacuum. I only noticed because my 2 year olds toys kept going under otherwise spotless. Also maybe add another tea towel. 1 to use for the whole week wasn’t enough.

- Mrs Perkins, October 2019
Mrs Doubtfire September 2019

“Cottage lovely and very comfortable and homely.”

Cleanliness was adequate but could have done with abit more attention to detail; conservatory dusty, under the sofas dirty (only realised because our sons toys rolled under them). Advertised as having a cot on request, was expecting a proper cot but it was actually a travel cot which wasn’t a problem but feel it should be advertised as that as we had to go out and buy and extra mattress for it as the ones that come with travel cots are not comfy enough for a whole week, could have bought one from home if we knew.

- Mrs Doubtfire, September 2019
Mrs Regan August 2019

“Beautifully presented spacious cottage in an ideal location for exploring Weymouth and surrounding areas.”

We would definitely stay here again.

- Mrs Regan, August 2019
Mrs Bates July 2019

“Blossom cottage was an absolute delight to stay in for the week.”

It had all the facilities needed and we loved staying and did not want to leave!!! You must go down to Craig's tea rooms for an outstanding strawberry ice cream and pop across the road to the sly fox pub for a pint or two of orchard haze! Would highly recommend to friends and family. Thank you for a wonderful base for our Weymouth holiday...

- Mrs Bates, July 2019
Mrs Van Der Vloodt June 2019

“The cottage was lovely only in three of the bedrooms was no wardrobe.”

Just some hooks on the wall which was not easy as we were there for 2 weeks and we wanted to hang most of our clothes. Also the parkingspace allocated to this cottage was very difficult to get into.

- Mrs Van Der Vloodt, June 2019
Mrs Goldsmith April 2019

“Thank you we had everything we needed .”

Area delightful Dairy Farm nearby,also Sly Fox Inn great food ! Worth a visit.We really enjoyed ourselves.

- Mrs Goldsmith, April 2019
Mr Humphreys April 2019

“The cottage was lovely.”

It was a perfect base for a family holiday. We will be using Dream Cottages again in the future

- Mr Humphreys, April 2019
Mrs Cleeve March 2019

“Beautiful Cottage, really spacious and immaculately clean.”

There were 7 adults in our party and there was plenty of space. Location is perfect - we lucked out with the weather so enjoyed fab walks and pub lunches. Its a shame the cottage didn't have towels and hand-wash in the toilets. There weren't any instructions about recycling. Would definitely come back - we had a fab weekend.

- Mrs Cleeve, March 2019
Mr Edwar Neal Aug 2017

“What a wonderful cottage!”

So well equipped, rooms very modern and spacious for our needs. Quite location and in easy reach for local shops and attractions and an excellent farm shop on the doorstep! Lovely solar lighting in the garden. Had a lovely stay - stayed August 2017

- Mr Edwar Neal, Aug 2017
Mrs Jane Ireland May 2017

“The cottage was beautifully furnished and was spotlessly clean.”

Everything was top quality from the luxurious bedding through to the kitchen utensils. We loved the solar lighting in the garden. A wonderful stay and will book Blossom Cottage again. Stayed April 2017

- Mrs Jane Ireland, May 2017
Mrs Fran Long Apr 2017

About the location

OSMINGTON

Osmington village, sits on the Jurassic coastline of Dorset, just 6 miles from Weymouth with it’s infamous beach and historic harbour and just 11 miles from Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door. Home to the famous Chalk hillside carving of George III on horseback, cut into the hillside to commemorate the Royal visits to Weymouth, this landmark can be seen from miles away. It is also the place that John Constable spent his honeymoon in 1816 and where he completed his painting of Weymouth Bay that now hangs in the National Gallery. The South West Coastal path runs through Osmington Mills, a tiny hamlet on the edge of Osmington. Here many walkers start their coast path walks at the Smugglers inn, where reputedly there are historic connections to smuggling. Be sure to visit to find out all the stories. A short drive will see you reach a local convenience store at Preston. Weymouth offers a larger variety of shopping, eating and entertainment choices.
