Although it is small this cottage is very well equipped. There has been lots of thought gone into ensuring a comfortable and safe stay. The hosts were friendly and helpful. It was very peaceful and an excellent base for the whole jurassic coast as well as inland attractions.

We had a great week. The Cottage is located centrally to a number of popular tourist locations and beaches. The property was very clean and had the amenities we needed to stay with two young children (namely washing machines).

Well-equipped accommodation in quiet surroundings
Primrose Cottage is a one-bedroomed conversion of part of a farm building that has a sofa-bed for 2 in the living room, but it would be crowded with 4 people staying there. The kitchen area is well equipped but be aware there is no oven, just a hob and a microwave with a grill in it. Separate laundry room nearby. Owners John and Juliet are very friendly and helpful and live on site. Convenient for Dorchester (10 minutes to centre of town) and local coastal towns.
