Comfortable retreat.
Lovely little cottage, comfortable and well equipped. Easy to find and efficient check in. Most enjoyable stay, convenient for walking and the sea. We loved the welcome hamper for us and and our doggie!

Great location
The cottage was well appointed, all the basics were covered and it suited us well for a long weekend. The welcome hamper was a lovely touch and provided some basics too. I hadn't realised the bathroom was downstairs and whilst not devastating it did cause me some concern with night time use. The cottage was superficially clean, but there were some areas of inattention. I did raise one issue with the owner and apologies were given, along with a bottle of wine, but I hope that steps will also be taken to prevent reoccurence.

Family holiday
We enjoyed a lovely stay at this cottage. Location for walking to Beaminster town is perfect and the local Spar is just a stones through away. Cottage is well equipped and wifi was good enough for all 4 of us. Some lovely local walks around and never had any problems parking right outside. Would recommend to all..

Cosy Martock Cottage
We loved our stay in Martock Cottage.
We were especially looking for a holiday stay with comfortable and dog secure outside space, this was perfect at Martock, Eddie loved sitting on the bathtub bench and watching the wildlife.
Inside was beautifully clean and very charming. Very well placed for walking into Beaminster for food at some lovely eateries.
Thank you again x

Lovely cottage
We had a lovely stay at Martock Cottage .
We live in a quiet village location so found that neighbourhood and road noise disturbed us. Hence not a 5/5 for location.
However having shops, pubs, cafes and restaurants within walking distance was a real bonus.

Perfect Dorset Cottage
We have family in the area but due to a big group we needed a place to stay. We already knew this part of Dorset is beautiful & this property is too. Really comfy, cosy and clean, the photos don’t do it justice. We’ll be back

Fantastic relaxing break
Beautiful cottage with everything we needed for a relaxing break in stunning countryside. We enjoyed getting out and about but having such a beautiful and homey cottage to return to with a lovely warm fire made it an even more enjoyable break
