Lark - An absolute gem. A lovely cottage in an outstanding location in the heart of Hardy Country. The owners were charming and very helpful and the setting is straight out of a novel. Spotlessly clean and perfectly appointed. I will certainly be back! Thank you for a lovely stay 🙂

We had previously stayed in the barn with a group of friends but we stayed in OWL cottage and it made for a wonderful break in a glorious country area. The cottage was clean, cosy, well equipped and very welcoming. After enjoying days in Lyme Regis, West Bay, Bridport and Chard it was always great to come back to the cottage for a nice cuppa and an evening of peace and tranquility! Loved the open plan kitchen within the lounge and both bedrooms having en suites. Our dog loved running round the enclosed garden and we felt she was totally safe. We met the owner who couldn't have been nicer and she bought us in some buiscuits! She couldn't have been more hospitable. Highly recommend these lovely cottages for a most relaxing break! Thank you

Great location and accommodation for a large family grouping for a celebration in the barn. Very spacious and well appointed with lots of outdoor space. Children will love the pool and separate games room.

Stayed in Lark cottage. Chair round the table broken, smoke alarm hanging from ceiling, window frame in bedroom rotten, insufficient utensils and outside of property uncared for. In my opinion this is not a 4* standard cottage.

This is sadly a malicious review We have been in business many years with positive feedback and happy guests No business would survive if this was true If any guest had found this amount of issues we would have fully refunded them

Had a 4 night stay in the Swallow cottage, which was very nice, clean and with a modern bathroom and was well equiped with everything we needed for our stay. Even tea, coffee and sugar for our arrival. The reason I have only given 4 stars is because this was booked on the understanding there was a 'bubbling hot tub' as described in the description on'Premier Cottages' Please be aware there is no hot tub, apparently there hasn't been one for 10 years! I've spoken to the owners and hopefully they will get Premier Cottages to amend the false information they are giving to potential customers

Thank you for your review We are pleased you enjoyed your stay As the review states the guest was referring to an out of date (10 years ) brochure Our indoor pool is a children’s pool and not used by adults

Just returned from a long weekend in the country. Ten friends gathering for a walking and eating weekend -trust us to choose a stormy weekend . The whole area had powercut but the owners were amazing and saved the day- they brought us camping lamps, chocolate baskets of wood for the fire, bought us all chips, gave us board games and some wine - we had the most fantastic evening sat around a roaring fire playing games, eating and drinking. The power was restored the next morning and we all agreed that the storm and that evening had made the break more fun and memorable. Fantastic comfy barn with lovely walks great pubs and the swimming pool to relax in. Perfect winter break Thank you to the owners for their thoughtfulness.

Thank you for your lovely review and appreciating the efforts we went to when the area lost power.. you were great guests and we look forward to seeing you later this year on your return stay .. hopefully without a storm

Cottage was filthy and owner is quite frankly bonkers. Not anywhere 4 star gold standard and if you look on Visit England’s website they do not list this place as being accredited by them. Don’t waste your money. Avoid at all costs.

We have flagged this review to trustpilot and as a business you can ask trustpilot to verify the review -requested the reviewer was checked when this appeared in November 2021 as this is completely false and is impacting our average review rate Trustpilot have done nothing and allowed this incorrect review to remain We suspect this is from a guest who tried to extort money from us and totally untrue ! We have had no John Smith staying with us !! How sad when people resort to lying on social media to try and ruin someone’s business. We have our latest accreditation from Visit England in 30/11/21 where we will get four star gold again.. I’m happy to send proof to any prospective guest.
