  Jasmine cottage is located in an ideal spot to access both inland and coastal sights easily.

  Beautiful scenery and magnificent beaches to explore with your four legged friend. The cottage is warm, bright, clean and very comfortable. The kitchen space is small but well equipped. Everything you need after your day out to make dinner and relax for the evening. And if you can't find anything, a quick message or call to Mary and a few minutes later she was at the door to help. The garden is a quiet, calm oasis to wander in or to sit and listen to the birdsong in the early morning as your dog investigates the river, bushes, trees and lifts his nose to catch the scents floating in on the breeze. Richard and Mary have a vast wealth of local knowledge and were always ready to offer recommendations and loan a map. Nothing was too much trouble, they were helpful and very welcoming to all visitors, whether furry or not so furry!

  Nice clean well equipped cottage in a good location to visit surrounding area - Lyme Regis, Clarkes Village and Weymouth all about 40 - 60 minutes.

  If using A303 stay on for Crewkerne and the A356 - there is a Waitrose and Lidl next to each other handy for supplies - turn left at the large yellow cross hatched road markings - stay on A356 to the cottage - after a declining left hand turn the cottage is on the left a very narrow entrance in-between a large tree and Bakers Arms where the owners live. The court yard is gravelled and a car park space for each cottage. NOTE that there is no mobile phone signal - Wi-Fi only - my phone worked okay, but my wife's didn't - would have liked a roller blind on the glass front door and in the bathroom. The power to work the shower is a ceiling pull cord next to it. No eating establishment within walking distance. Would recommend for a couple with it's good location for visiting surrounding area - just keep to the A roads!

  We like our stay very much.

  We understand old Cottages are prone to cobwebs and there friends, but some of these had clearly been there for a while. We were instructed to leave our rubbish in the bin outside the back door, however this bin was full and let's just say it wasn't a pleasant smell being exuded from it. We moved it to the other end of the patio but you wouldn't have wanted to eat outside with that aroma. We had to dispose of our rubbish ourselves. Most properties we have stayed in tell you when the bins are collected and what to put out, this property didn't which might explain why the bin was full. However this wouldn't put us off staying again! We loved the TV and choices of what to watch in the evenings, Hazel loved having a roam in the garden and it was a perfect location for all our favourite places we like to visit in Dorset.

  Great location, right in the heart of Beaminster but away from any road noise.

  Large, comfortable rooms, plenty of space. Excellent beds and bedding. Kitchen well equipped. Had a problem with the heating but it was rectified the same day, well done Dream Cottages, excellent service. One of the things we all thought was very strange was the downstairs toilet being part of the conservatory with just a stud wall separating it. The wall only goes 3/4 of the way up so the top part is open to the conservatory. This is an odd set up and made it unusable for us as you could hear everything. It doesn’t seem very hygienic either! Beaminster is lovely, great shops and a couple of good pubs. There are walks from the doorstep of Poppy Cottage which is ideal. Beautiful countryside all around and within easy reach of places like Bridport, West Bay, Burton Bradstock and Lyme Regis.

  I'll mention this first as it did impact my stay, although the cottage is lovely.

  It was difficult to contact someone at Sykes/Dream Cottages when the cooker began acting up and I was nervous that there could be an electrical issue that needed attention. As an older person travelling alone, it would have been more reassuring, particularly with no cell phone signal at the cottage to have had a more timely response to my emails or to be able to contact the owner. Hence the four stars instead of 5. One suggestion, the listing said that fuel is supplied, but there were 2 small pressed logs and no kindling, perhaps the listing should clarify what is actually provided (or that fuel for the woodstove is not provided). The cottage is lovely and well equipped, the bed was very comfortable. The ground floor shower is great.
