The cottage was extremely well equipped and comfortable with a high level of cleanliness.. Ideally located in a quiet village with easy access to places of interest on the Dorset coastline. The owners were friendly, helpful and welcoming. I would have no hesitation in recommending this cottage to anyone looking for a quiet relaxing break or anyone wishing to explore places of interest in Dorset.

Mr Fairclough, September 2020

Well equipped cottage situated in a pleasant village close to the facilities of nearby Crewkerne.. Very convenient for trips to the coast and other attractions. The only downside from our point of view was the uncomfortable bed!

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at The Cygnet.. The area was so convenient to get to different places coast and country, including a number of National Trust properties.

Mr Stage

A great little bolt hole to house us for a weekend's wedding over at the Tythe Barn. A small-but-perfectly-formed cottage was big enough for 4 adults and a baby and with a nicely placed sun terrace which we got to enjoy on our last day.

This is a small compact cottage, with everything that is needed for a family holiday. Being rather tall I found difficulty in the bathroom with the low sloping ceiling. The settee and chairs in the lounge appear to be rather dated and were not the most comfortable. The owner put a nice welcome gift(cake & cider) in the kitchen/diner for us and a bottle of milk in the fridge with tea bags as well.

Mr White

The wood burner provided a cosy atmosphere in winter. Location ideally met our requirements and enjoyed the New Year celebrations with local people. The owner of the cottage provided excellent help and access to facilities.

We had a marvellous time, the host family couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful. We will definitely be going back next year.

Mrs Taylor

We were given so much privacy although living next door to the owners, we knew they were on hand if we needed them. Although on a busy country road, It was very peaceful day and night. There were lots of books to read, big comfy chairs and a lovely patio - a real sun-trap.

Mr Cooper

The cottage was excellent, very clean and had everything we needed and some really nice extras. The village itself was in a great location, about 40 minutes from Lyme Regis which has a lovely beach, but also not that far from Weymouth either.

Mrs Fitch

The cottage was beautiful, clean and very comfortable. There was a good selection of tourist information leaflets from which we selected our days out. The cottage was perfectly based to explore a wide range of destinations in Somerset, Dorset and Devon.

Guest

Greeted by the owner, a lovely lady who was very friendly and couldn't be more helpful. The property was amazingly spacious and well appointed. Nice presents on arrival. Great location for Somerset, Dorset, Devon. Lots of local Pubs/Restaurants to choose from. The only criticism is that the road that passes is very busy a.m. and p.m.

This property is ideal, the cottage itself is well furnished and had everything we needed. The cottage is in a quiet location but Crewkerne is very close if you need to anything. The location is superb with many attractions nearby. We found that we did not have to travel far and there is plenty to do in the area.

Our holiday was wonderful. The Cygnet is an adorable little cottage with everything you could need for a break in the countryside. The family that owns the Cygnet lives right next door as well so any questions were easy to sort out immediately. They were really lovely and even brought us a bottle of local cider and fresh eggs from their chickens. It was a very cozy and wonderful Christmas at the Cygnet.

Mr Hollingshead

Very convenient base to explore Devon, Dorset and Somerset. Cottage was perfect, hosts were very friendly and helpful but not imposing. Plenty of tourist information provided by hosts to read at our leisure.
