Fabulous place and really beautiful location.

Fabulous place and really beautiful location. Property was comfortable but clearly in need of some TLC although in fairness you have to remind yourself of the age of the property. Owners were really lovely and very helpful and are clearly working towards a bigger vision for the site.. would visit again in a flash😊

A fabulously homely cottage with everything we needed for our little escape with Mulder the cockapoo

A fabulously homely cottage with everything we needed for our little escape with Mulder the cockapoo.The setting is just perfect and the owner made us feel so welcome. We even got our own private tour of the gatehouse.The corner bath is enormous! Perfect for a long soak after a muddy walk around the Cerne Abbas Giant. The cottage was beautifully warm and having access to the garden was perfect for our morning cup of coffee as Mulder had a run around.The village shop was amazing. There are 3 pubs in the village. We had a fabulous meal at The Giant Inn and the church runs a coffee and cake drop in on a Wednesday morning. We caught the bus to Dorchester. A 30 minute ride away.Highly recommended. We will be back.

Compact downstairs, more spacious upstairs. Very convenient for visiting local places of interest, and within walking distance of three pubs/restaurants and an excellent village shop. Parking very convenient outside the cottage. Thoroughly recommended.

The locality of this cottage is unique and most beautiful. The owners, who live on site, are helpful and very friendly. The cottage overall was comfortable and suited our holiday requirements perfectly. The one big reservation was the bathroom which needs serious updating, including the shower which was inadequate and, in fact, useless. The owners are fully aware of this problem and expressed their intention of renewing the bathroom completely. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

My wife and I had a wonderful time at Cerne Abbey Cottage.

My wife and I had a wonderful time at Cerne Abbey Cottage. It is so cozy and the welcome was amazing. Beatiful surroundings and it oozes historical character. We went at a time when the apples, pears and figs were falling from the trees and they did not go to waste. A stunning location with plenty of walks and a great place to explore the many aspects of Dorset. Batteries fully recharged. Thank you Cerne Abbey!

Cerne Abbey Cottage provided the most beautiful and peaceful setting for a week of rest and retreat. If you needed WiFi it would be good to be prepared for the fact that it is very unreliable. There were a few kitchen utensils which we would have been glad to have but our hostess was very willing to lend anything that wasn’t already provided.

We enjoyed a few days of R&R here at the start of December. Although the cottage was a little cool at times we managed. Our only complaint was with the WiFi. We ha d strong signal but could only get connected to the internet sometimes in the morning. The 4G signal was good though.

Fantastic cottage in the charming village of Cerne Abbas, located on the grounds of a former abbey. Very friendly owners and quiet surroundings. Great for exploring Dorset and the Jurassic Coast, ideal for walking and a romantic getaway. Only small downside (for me): low water pressure in the shower.

The cottage is situated in the old abbey grounds in the charming village of Cerne Abbas. It is very quiet and tranquil, a wonderful place to escape from the pressures of everyday life - no phone signal!! We enjoyed visits to Weymouth, Bridport, Monkey World, Yeovil and Sherborne returning to a cosy evening beside the wood burner. We were made to feel very welcome, both at the cottage by the owners and in the village. The village shop and P.O. was amazing - I really believe it sells everything. A great holiday!!
