Area
Just outside the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty was a peaceful, rural community. A popular pub founded in 1750, a parish church going back to before the 15th century, and a Spar store can all be found in the small, historic village of Hazelbury Bryan. There is a children's play area and a field with cricket and football equipment in the community as well. With the Dorset and Cranborne Chase Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty nearby, which provide excellent chances for hikers and bikers with beautiful views to go with it, Hazelbury Bryan proved to be a perfect location for exploring the outdoors. The community has a fair assortment of stores and restaurants despite being somewhat remote; Sherborne, the closest well-stocked town, is 10 miles distant. Visit Bournemouth, a charming town with lots to see and do, around 25 miles south of here if you feel like a vacation to the shore.

Region
Explore the fossils and stunning beaches of Dorset’s Jurassic Coast, visit historic Sherborne and Shaftesbury, or enjoy the footpaths, country lanes and thatched-roof pubs Dorset offers.

Reviews
Mrs Hogg
September 2020
Beautiful setting with welcoming hosts.. Great area for our walking holiday with our dog. Lots of dog friendly little pubs too. Highly recommend location and accommodation.
Mrs Hogg, September 2020
August 2020
Mr & Mrs Holloway are the nicest people you could wish to meet.. Very kind and welcoming. The house was lovely, clean as a new pin and set in the most beautiful countryside. The views were incredible and we have never seen sunsets like the ones we experienced during our holiday. Even the lightning storm that came after the spell of very hot weather was spectacular. The peace and quiet was exactly what we needed, after being in London through the Covid lockdown. The house is a great base from which to explore, with the beautiful Dorset towns of Sherborne, Dorchester, Shaftesbury, Blandford Forum and Yeovil all within easy reach. Our one gripe would be to have electric fans available for the bedrooms, as it was so hard to sleep during the hot spell.

This was our third visit to this comfortable cottage with it's wonderful views and sun sets.. A secure garden for children and dogs and full of bird song. We saw deer on 2 mornings whilst walking our dog in the adjacent field. David and Winnie were as friendly and helpful as aleways.

Mrs Behan

The couple who own it made us feel very welcome and if we had had any problems I'm sure they would have been quick in sorting or helping us out.. They took time to speak with us giving us recommendations and ask about our day which was lovely. The accommodation is well equipped and we made good use off the washer/dryer. The cottage was very comfortable and we got the home from home feel we were after. Thanks for a lovely week
Mrs Morgan

We have stayed at The Stables before and find it very comfortable for us and our small dog. The garden is ideal. We like the location as it is in a rural area with lots of walks on your doorstop and not too far to drive to the local shops and good pubs. We will stay again.
Mrs Blackall
November 2015
The owners were very friendly. A beautiful cottage up a long drive with electric gates for security, horses grazing in the fields and being stabled very close to the cottage. Very quiet and remote but close enough to drive to shops.

The Stables is in the perfect location, the views are fantastic. The cottage is very well equipped and very cosy in December. The owners are welcoming, friendly and informative of the local area. We could not have wished for more, it was the start of a good Christmas break.

The Stables is a well equipped and spacious self contained property. The owners farmhouse is close at hand, but completely separate. This region is a delight for anyone who likes quiet and natural rural England. There are many delightful small towns and villages within easy reach and some excellent pubs serving really good food. The Dorset coast is not far away and is easily reached. The local lanes are quite narrow but are generally quiet and represent no drawback - they are part of the attraction for us! The house itself was very comfortable and the owners were very helpful and pleasant and respected our privacy perfectly.
Mrs Parr
October 2013
The cottage was warm and comfortable, and the garden was very pretty and well kept. The views from the cottage were beautiful, and the farm was so peaceful and relaxing. The owners were lovely and chatty, but never intrusive. We would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to stay in this area.

Guest
February 2013
We were warmly welcomed by the owner. the property was home from home and had been decorated with a lovely Christmas tree. Comfortable size for 4 adults and we had a dog with us. The garden attached to the stables was dog/child friendly. We found a local pub The Green Man very friendly and the food was tasty. The landlord was helpful with giving us space to accommodate a toddler and dog, which allowed us to have an enjoyable time there. The stables is quite isolated if you wanted to do any shopping, having said that found a supermarket in Sturminster Newton offering a good range of products. Enjoyable, peaceful location.
Mrs Hadwin
October 2012
The hosts were most hospitable and asked if there was anything else we needed, which there was not as everything was perfect. Lovely, peaceful location. Enjoyed watching horses and hot air balloons.

The standard of the accommodation and attention to detail of the fittings of the cottage. One of the best we have stayed in and there have been many.
Mrs Griffin

Everything. From the minute we arrived, and were greeted by the owners and the lovely homemade cakes. The surroundings were just lovely and to have the horses stabled next door was a bonus as we absolutely love horses. The whole holiday experience including the weather was faultless. We will certainly be making another visit. Yet another wonderful property offered through Sykes.

Location is great - overlooking lovely countryside. The cottage was larger than we expected and had everything we needed. Star gazing with clear skies at night was a big bonus as there is no light pollution, and the area is so quiet; we really enjoyed our stay.The hosts are very approachable and made our stay perfect. We enjoyed an evening at The Exchange in Stur which stages varied events and has a really friendly atmosphere.
