  The house was OK.

  Clean and basic facilities. It was dingy and claustrophobic - one window at the front obscured by an overgrown bush, and one at the back in the kitchen. No windows up stairs, only roof lights. The place welcomes pets (we don't have any), but had a bit of a musty smell of wet dog. There's shelves in the living room well stocked with books etc, but this gave the impression of being cluttered. There's lots of pictures on the walls at odd places, looking behind these cover dents/marks in the wall. No usable outside space - There was a back garden but no access to it - the only access being via the side and back of the row of properties, which was not at all practical. There's a bench at the front facing an overgrown bush and overgrown brambles. Facilities were basic - no washing machine or dish washer. Parking wasn't ideal. There are spaces more or less in front of the property which is fine, if they are available. More than once these were all taken and we had to park at the other end of the site (by the refuse/recycling bins). There is a hotel on the side with restaurant and pool. We didn't use these facilities, the weather wasn't quite good enough for the outside pool and there are plenty of nice restaurants in the area to try. Charmouth, Lyme Regis, and the Jurassic coast is a lovely area. If you're loking for somewhere basic, then this is fine. Would we recommend it, not really, unfortunately, I am sure there are better properties for the price to rent in the area.

  Lovely, comfy, clean cottage, everything you need for a home from home stay.

  We didn't have good weather and was lovely to come back to a warm cosy cottage to dry off (airer provided for wet clothes) and relax. Outside space is great for sitting out and checking out the view of the surrounding countryside (weather permitting) and enclosed for your dog/children to be safe. Kitchen fully equipped for cooking or just warming your take away in the oven or microwave. Sofa has recliners which is such a bonus when been out walking all day. The bed was really comfy great bedding and pillows (the only issue was the frame was a bit 'squeaky' something the owners are probably not aware of but didn't disturb us too much). The cottage is well decorated and has beautiful artwork all around which we learnt was all the owners work. The only thing we felt was missing was somewhere to put your toilet bag in the bathroom – there is plenty of room to put a shelf or small table All in all this is a fabulous cottage as a base to explore and the owners go above and beyond providing more than you would expect when you arrive, from extra loo rolls to the award winner bottle of cider in the fridge, tea, coffee, sugar, a fabulous cream tea and fresh flowers on the table. Lots of books to read, games to play and even your four legged friend is not forgotten as they even have a puzzle for them to do too! Would we recommend this cottage to family/friends? We already have and will be back.

  This cottage was perfect for our family of three, including our six year old.

  It's safe, very comfortable and we loved the art! The owners are a lovely couple, quick to respond and gave us ideas for what to do in the area. It rained a lot during our stay so we didn't get to sit outside much, which was a shame because the views are indeed gorgeous. It was a little bit hard to find the turning off the main road in the night, we checked in late. The trick is to point your GPS to 'The Travellers Rest'. The shower room is downstairs, not on the 1st floor - so we did have to go downstairs in the night, not a problem for us but may be an issue for some. It's a comfortable little cottage - the shower has good, strong pressue - much better than in my house! Lots of electricity plugs, all the lights worked, nice to have bedside tables and lamps. Lots of storage space in both bedrooms. It was our first trip to Bridport, what a lovely town. We went to the markets on Saturday and it was glorious, so many stalls and shops, people, music etc - really great markets. We will come back with more friends next time and hire a couple of cottages.

  Whilst the let was on the surface neat and tidy as an elderly couple with a dog couldn't recommend it the sofa was extremely uncomfortable the two recliners were comfy but too low I spent the entire holiday sitting on a dining chair the beds were too cramped apart from the double the lack of fresh air in the bedrooms we found stifling and so sleep wasn't good shower and bath good toilets child sized and very poorly situated like the downstairs sink why put it opposite the hot dryer rail bend over and you burn your backside when washing your face the outside garden I'm not sure that was described accurately it was unusable no access from house you have to walk round the row of houses up a steep slippery overgrown path get in the garden (I use garden loosely) to the deck which may be classed as fit for use but we didn't use it once car parking didn't get use of it once during the holiday description of waste disposal also needs addressed better our verdict will be don't use to anyone

  I emailed you from the cottage.

  Incredibly dissatisfied with the location and condition. Had we known it was right next to the A35 we would not have booked. Two nights unable to sleep due to the incessant noise from cars speeding down the A35, it went on throughout the night. Mould in the bathroom and a general air of neglect. The general state of the cottage left a lot to be desired. Has anyone from Sykes been to check it out.....? We have an annex at our Hampshire home and consistently get 10 out of 10 from guests, Barton cottage would rate three at best on our scale Will not be recommending this to anyone, Its an incredible disappointment given that it was a 60th birthday surprise for me fiancé. Someone from your company needs to visit this cottage and ask themselves would they pay the amount we have paid. Is there a way of sending pictures of mould, please advise We feel cheated and feel a refund would be appropriate Sincerely
