I could not find one single fault in the cottage.. It was such a ‘Home from home’ and we was at comfort straight away.
The kitchen had everything you would need.
The bathrooms had deep bath’s and powerful
showers.
The bedrooms cane equipped with comfortable beds, bed linen, storage, towels and extra blankets.
The living room was very comfortable, homely and warming.
The location of the cottage was great, with lots to see and do within short reach.
Overall, we cannot wait to stay again.

We had a wonderful short break at Corner Cottage.. Lovely area and great property. Lots of really useful information was left for us and the owners fixed any issues we had promptly.
We will definitely be back

Vriendelijke eigenaren, behulpzaam met verse eitjes in huis, de huisjes zaten allemaal vol maar geen overlast, een erg prettig huisje, modern en netjes, heerlijke landelijke omgeving en met een stukje rijden genoeg in de omgeving te doen te zien.. Heb alleen een paar pannenlappen of ovenwanten gemist, als je iets uit de oven wou halen is dat niet handig met een katoenen theedoek (die verbrandt)

Temperature of water very hit and miss.. Several bulbs had fused.Rather a lot of do's and donts . Kitchen lacked basic cleaning products. Would have been nice if the owners had introduced themselves.

The hot water was not working on our arrival, however the owner came later the same day to fix it.. (previous people had turned it all off)
The toilet seat in the main bedroom would not stay upright. Again the owner arrived on the day we left to change this. The lighting was not very bright, my wife is sight impaired and does need good lighting. I purchased a extra portable light to help. The bedroom with variable table lights where very good.
The owner seem very willing to help if you have any problems. Would have liked to see some of the other cottages, however they where all occupied during our stay

I have passed on my comments directly to Whitebridge Farm.. We were concerned about the extremely hot water and problems we had. We think that the bathroom facilities need upgrading - in the larger bathroom the shower hose has no wall holder and a new toilet lid is needed as it slams down. The bedside lamps in the larger bedroom are too bright (they are as bright as the main light). The extractor fan in the bathroom stays on for a long time after the light is switched off so using the bathroom is difficult at night. When using the mixer tap in the bathroom you can still feel some of the too hot water on part of your hand. A general upgrade of the water and bathroom facilities needed having the boiler in the kitchen causes some heat problems and the kitchen area is cramped. The cottage is well located and easy to find and we enjoyed our stay in the main but have stayed in other accommodation on farms of a higher quality.

Corner Cottage was very clean and well equiped and for us two couples the two bedroom and two bathroom set up was ideal.. Car parking was secure and the general layout of the site was very good. We used the cottage as a touring base for the Dorset area. Minor drawback in the unusual summer heat (25+ )was the location of the hot water boiler in the kitchen area which made the cupboards above very hot.

The barn conversions were well done and not on top of each other.. It was a very quiet location. Good area for travelling around. The kitchen could do with more utensils.

A beautiful barn conversion set in a very quiet locality. The owner was very friendly and helpful and the chickens were very amusing and friendly. Our daughter said I want to live here which was echoed by us all.
