Summary: Beautiful property in a quintessential english village. The Thatched Cottage is outstanding, and more than meets the expectations from the online description and photographs. The Kitchen in well equipped, for cooking proper meals. During our short stay the weather was on the cold side, the Cottage was toasty warm for out return. Good local store steps away, good little cafe at the garden center, the walk to the Sixpenny Brewery well worth it- and great beer!!! Highly recommend The Thatched Cottage.

Summary: This 17 centuary Thached property is beautiful from the outside and inside, and is located in the small and quiet village of Cranmore. It has four bedrooms (one with a bunk bed), One big bathroom, with a bath tub, one ensuite with shower and toilet, and another shower and toilet on the ground floor. It is bright and spacious and has been very tastefully decorated throughout. It offers three big rooms downstairs, and a good size and fully equipped kitchen and utility room, with wachine machine and dryer. It has a large garden with BBQ, garden table and chairs. In fact everything you need from a self-catering holiday has been provided for. The Church of St Mary and St Bartholomew is within walkign distance and well worth a visit. Little Pickle at the Mill in Wimborne is a nice little place for an afternoon tea, and has a few crafts shops on site too. Families with young children will enjoy the Sea Life Centre in Weymouth. There are a number of good restaurants within 3-4 miles of Cranmore. The restaurants/pubs in the Cranmore village itself are not open every day and are closed on Sundays. There is a small local supermarket within walking distance of the cottage for the basic essentials. The town of Wimborne is where you found the bigger supermarkets, and shops. The owner of the property had kindly left us milk, tea, coffee and biscuits on arrival which after our journey was much appreciated. Stair-gates and cot for my grandaughter were also provided.

Summary: We stayed at The Thatched Cottage last week, for a family group to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary and it was perfect. So modern, clean and cosy, and very well equipped, in a quiet location but within easy reach of supermarkets and restaurants. We were six adults and two boys aged 6 and 7, who loved the bunk beds and the themed rooms. We nabbed the Heart Room with ensuite for ourselves but the family shared the other bathroom and shower room. There was ample hot water, and the heating was efficient though we didn’t need it much. Monkey World, Moors Valley Park and the Heavy Horse Farm were all perfect days out, and the weather behaved itself. Didn’t get to eat at the Sheaf of Arrows unfortunately as it was closed due to sickness, but we took a walk for a beer at the Sixpenny Tap which was lovely. Great instructions and communications from Janice, we have no hesitation in recommending this cottage and would happily stay there again.

Summary: THE THATCH COTTAGE IS AN EXCELLENT PROPERTY & THERE IS NO DOUBT THE OWNERS HAVE SPENT A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT SETTING IT UP. UNFORTUNATELY NOT ENOUGH DETAIL WENT INTO THE BATHROOM FACILITIES. UPON ARRIVAL WE REALISED THAT ONE OF THE THREE BATHROOMS WAS LOCATED ON THE GROUND FLOOR IMMEDIATELY NEXT TO THE REAR FRENCH WINDOWS. THE SECOND SHOWER BATHROOM WAS AN UPSTAIRS ENSUITE BUT THE THIRD BATHROOM INSTEAD OF HAVING A SHOWER FACILITY OVER THE BATH HAD NO SHOWER. BEARING IN MIND THIS IS AN 8 PERSON PROPERTY I THINK IT IS TOTALLY UNREASONABLE TO EXPECT ANYONE LET ALONE PEOPLE ABOVE PENSION AGE TO EITHER ALL SHARE THE ENSUITE OR NEGOTIATE WHAT ARE UNDERSTANDABLY STEEP STAIRS TO WASH DOWNSTAIRS OF A MORNING. WHEN I TELEPHONED THE OWNERS THEY WERE WELL AWARE THE SHOWER HAD BEEN REMOVED BUT OBVIOUSLY HAD DONE NOTHING TO UPDATE THEIR WEBSITE. I DIDN`T FIND THE COMMENT THAT HE WAS SURE PEOPLE ENJOY A BATH VERY HELPFUL. IN ADDITION THAT MAIN BATHROOM HAS NO FAN EXTRACTION FITTED WHICH MEANS IT IS AGAIN VERY AWKWARD FOR MULTIPLE OCCUPANCY AS IT IS THE ONLY UPSTAIRS TOILET OTHER THAN THE BEDROOM ENSUITE. STRANGELY FROM THE OUTSIDE THERE APPEARS TO BE THE EXTRACTION GRILL BUT PRESUMABLY WHEN THE BATHROOM WAS REDECORATED THAT WAS ALSO REMOVED. FOUR OF US STAYED ALL OF AN AGE. NONE FANCIED PARADING THROUGH THE PROPERTY TO GO FOR A WASH IN THE MORNINGS OR INDEED AFTER RETURNING FROM OUR JOURNEYS. WE WOULD NOT HAVE CHOSEN THIS PROPERTY IF THE FACILITIES HAD BEEN CORRECTLY LISTED

Summary: Everything about this lovely home was perfect. Everything you could need is supplied. The bedding was so soft and warm. There were plenty of dishes and cookware. Janice responds so quickly and offered to turn on lights if we arrived late. The yard is as cute as the house. The kids didn’t want to leave. 5 stars over and over.
