“This was our 3rd stay at Blueberry Cottage and was as good as always.”

Lovely cottage in excellent location.

Lovely cottage in excellent location.

- Mr Hockley, September 2020
“Cottage is in a central but very quiet position in the beautiful village of Sutton Poyntz.”

Great pub a stones throw away but no noise at night. Minimal traffic down lane. Comfortable beds and peace and quiet meant a good night's sleep every night. Lovely sunny large kitchen with sun trap patio was a highlight of our stay. Neighbours were very friendly. Great walks on your doorstep. I recommend the walk up the hill to sit on the Osmington White Ho rse for amazing views of Weymouth harbour. We would definitely love to stay here again.

- Mr Evans, August 2020
“The location is great and the village has a good feel about it, although i am not sure what it would be like out of season with so many rentals available.”

Having a pub in such close proximity was also great. With regards to property, it was very nice although there are a couple of things i would like to point out: 1) It could have been cleaner, a lot of cobwebs in corners of ceilings. - not sure if this was due to lack of use owing to Covid. 2) Oven and hob were next to useless. The hob could do withe being exchanged for a modern one with more effective heating rings. Very old fashioned. The oven was ok, but again rather lacking in punch when cooking. The wifi was a great bonus which kept the kids happy. Overall it was a great stay, with a few minor tweaks it would be a perfect property!

- Mr Horan, August 2020
“Well what a cottage.”

What a place to stay. The village is a beautiful tranquil place. Lots of nice walks, locals are very pleasant. The cottage had everything in place. Garden was a bonus for our dog. She loved it too.

- Mrs Turner, March 2020
“Good Morning - we both had a wonderful time at Blueberry Cottage even with storm Dennis !”

We will be booking again next year ! Great walks and runs around the area - always good when you find a good pub also ! Thanks again Stuart and Katie and Mabel

- Mr Mcconachie, February 2020
“The cottage is in a good location.”

However it is difficult to park close to the cottage, the Lane is narrow and the village does become busy at weekends. The lounge area is quite cool in the winter months and the gas fire did not work. The sofas are uncomfortable, so it was not pleasant to sit and watch TV. I sat on the hard dining chair. As I was uncomfortable I ended my stay early by two days. I did contact Sykes Customer service on my return to inform them of my stay and these problems. Neither they or the owner of the cottage were prepared to offer a small refund by way of compensation . So I was a little disappointed.

- Mrs Prout, November 2019

Thank you for your feedback, the Owner has tested the fire and is pleased to report it is working fine - the Owner would have been happy to pop in to look at this for you and demonstrate how this works. We are sorry you found the leather sofa not to your comfort. Once again, thank you for your feedback. Owner relations

After booking this cottage for the last 7 years I was dismayed to find when booking for 2020 that the owners have increased the price by more than £200 a week I just can't see how you can justify this yes it's a nice place but you have no on-suite and it's not been updated in the years we've been coming Real shame we paid £860 this year for a week now it'll be £1100 We definitely won't be back at that price absolutely ridiculous Iain Vigar Ely Cambridgeshire

“Blueberry Cottage is the most splendid holiday home.”

It is like home from home. The location is amazing with really friendly neighbours. Also the staff that work at Dream Cottages are so friendly they helped us secure our favourite holiday home. I would like to thank them all.

- Mrs Streeter, August 2019
“Very clean and cosy cottage in a great location.”

Only issue was that there were no plugs in basin or bath, no problem if you just wanted to shower. Would recommend and consider returning.

- Mr Tomlinson, May 2019

Thank you for your valuable feedback and glad you felt Blueberry Cottage was clean and cosy. We are sorry that you did not find the plugs, they were on the shelf in the bathroom but in future the housekeeper will put them on the sink and bath respectively to avoid confusion. Owner relations
“Lovely cottage ,great location ,nice walks from door ,only negative gas log burner hard to light but used central heating instead would recommend cottage .”

- Mrs Hayward, March 2019
“The cottage is lovely and in a perfect setting for a relaxing break, with a fantastic dog friendly pub over the road.”

The staff are very friendly, they serve great food, a great selection of real ales and of course gin. Great walking and cycling in and around the area. The cottage is very well presented and is of a good size, it worked well for 2 adults, 2 teenagers and a small dog. It had everything we needed, apart from a hairdryer which would be helpful. Might be worth mentioning that the cottage has a ground floor bathroom in the description as its not to everyone’s liking but it was fine for us. We would definitely stay there again.

- Mr Taylor, February 2019

“Beautiful and charming cottage in pretty village.”

Immaculately clean and refurbished to a very high standard with a fantastic feel about it - we would buy this cottage in a flash -it was that good. Incredibly well placed for most attractions and no more than 5/6 minutes to nearest beach. Would stay here again without hesitation and would use Dream Cottages without a doubt - great service with immensely helpful, friendly people - stayed October 2016

The property

Blueberry Cottage is a much improved and extended pretty holiday home situated in the picture postcard Dorset village of Sutton Poyntz. Take a walk to a nearby duck pond and try out the Springhead country pub which has a reputation for good food and a family atmosphere.

The village is surrounded by excellent country walks for those who like to ramble; a local co-op store is also within walking distance.

Relax on the sofa in front of TV or enjoy a cup of tea by the window whilst waiting for dinner cooked in a bright and very spacious kitchen.

The sunny patio garden at Blueberry Cottage is the perfect location to relax and enjoy an evening sundowner.

The village is just a couple of miles from the nearest beach at Bowleaze Cove, with a main resort beach and the town centre of Weymouth another mile further on.

Alternatively, you may wish to visit one of South Dorset's unique attractions such as Monkey World or the Jurassic Coastline for fossil hunting or enjoying spectacular sea views which are all easily accessible. Blueberry Cottage marries the best combination of a modern yet sympathetically renovated cottage coupled with an internal standard you are looking for and a location that is perfect for coastal and country pursuits as well as exploring all the visitor attractions south Dorset has to offer.
