Bike store. Private parking for 3 cars. No smoking. Please note: There is a pond in the garden, 50 yards away.. Located in the heart of the wonderful Blackmore vale countryside, Bridles Farm Holiday Cottages are two Grade II listed, single-storey converted barns (refs 29954 and 29955) situated on a working sheep and beef farm. Ideally placed in an AONB mid-way between Dorchester to the south, the historic county town of Dorset and Sherborne to the north, with its beautiful abbey and castles, these charming cottages each offer good family holiday accommodation for four. Both have their own decked area, equipped with barbecues and outdoor furniture and the farm’s garden also has a pond with adjacent patio which is an idyllic place to relax and enjoy a glass of wine whilst looking out over the fields, spring being a particularly lovely time to watch the lambs playing. There are several bridleways and footpaths on the doorstep and the village inn is only a short walk where you can wine and dine or sit out in the beer garden and enjoy the sunshine. Places of interest locally include the famous Cerne Abbas giant carved into the hillside, the Fleet Air Arm Museum with its fascinating array of aircraft at Yeovilton, the Haynes Motor Museum for those with an interest in classic cars and Monkey World in Wareham. Guests can explore Weymouth, a family friendly sandy beach and home of the 2012 Olympic sailing, Portland and on to West Bay, Bridport and Lyme Regis, taking in the spectacular famous World Heritage Jurassic Coast and Chesil Beach. Venture into Somerset to Clark’s Factory Village at Street, Glastonbury Tor, Longleat House and Safari Park and much more – there is much to enjoy. Shaftesbury and Salisbury are also well worth a trip. Shop 4 miles, pub and restaurant 275 yards.

Cottage was beautiful.

Cottage was beautiful. Clean, warm and well equipped. We had everything we needed. The owners are very friendly and remembered us from our previous stay. The nearby pub provides good food with a varied menu. We found plenty to do within easy driving distance. Hopefully we will return for a break in the spring/summer.

Immaculate, spacious cottage in a bucolic location, loved the welcome pack and the excellent kitchen

Immaculate, spacious cottage in a bucolic location, loved the welcome pack and the excellent kitchen equipment. No garden as such, but a comfortably furnished patio, with field views. No facilities within walking distance, except a pleasant pub with good food and short opening hours (a sign of the times perhaps). An easy drive to Sherborne and Dorchester, further to the coast, would be a good base for exploring Dorset. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Great hosts and very good welcome pack.

Great hosts and very good welcome pack. The cottage was really good and just what we wanted. There was plenty to do in the area and the roads were good. The nearby pub was not as good as expected although we ate there twice, we some how expected more from the food and drinks. The pub bar staff were very nice. All in all great holiday.

Christine and Paul are lovely hosts and couldn’t have done much more on our arrival, the Victoria sponge was excellent. A lovely four days away with lots of places to visit or to just put your feet up and relax. The pub is only 2 minutes away with friendly host and serve a good selection of food, if you don’t fancy cooking in the cottage.
