A very well equipped and lovely cottage in a nice area of Dorset. Had all we needed for a relaxing stay after being at Camp Bestival. We found the cottage deceptively spacious with the handy snug for parents while the kids watched tv in the kitchen diner.A lovely outlook over the fields from the garden.The cottage was clean and modern, we will definitely be thinking of using it again when we visit Dorset.

Amazing experience

We loved everything about the property. Perfect for our family of 3 (and our dog). The property was clean and centrally located. Loved nice little touches through out the property that made it more cosy. The welcome pack of bread, cookies, tea and milk was a huge relief (and much welcomed) after a long drive. Overall, very memorable holiday and a great place to stay. Highly recommend.

Memorable stay

The cottage had everything we needed. The back garden looked out over a field and was secluded. So many walks nearby and not far from the beach. The local pubs and cafes were very welcoming and all dog friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Lovely stay in Dorset

The cottage was comfortable and cosy, finished to a high standard with lovely decor. Great location on the edge of the town with good walks from the cottage. Also close to the coast and some fantastic costal walks. Proximity to a great restaurant (the Ollerod) was also a bonus.

Lovely cottage in an excellent location

Lovely comfortable spacious cottage in a great location for making the most of the many local walks in the wonderful Dorset countryside. Good accessibility to the local beaches and other attractions in the area with the delightful Beaminster town centre only a short walk away from the cottage. The pretty garden was an unexpected bonus and perfect for relaxing in at the end of the day. We really enjoyed our stay and are keen to come back !

Lovely cottage and delightful hosts

The cottage has all the facilities you might need, and the Welcome Box of goodies was a nice touch. The heating came on morning and evening and warmed the cottage very well. We didn't need to use the log fire. The Spar shop, located a minute's walk away, was very useful. I can recommend this accommodation to anyone thinking about a holiday to short break in Dorset.

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

Fabulous cottage

Arrived at Martock Cottage for a much needed break. And the cottage was perfect right down to the welcome hamper and treats left for my dog! The cottage is beautiful and felt so comfortable on walking in. Tracy and family clearly care a lot for the cottage and have kitted it out perfectly… you can tell that they love staying there too. Great for just chilling out and for exploring the local area and beaches. We had a great time thanks! 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.

lovely cottage

We're a family of four and stayed for a week. The access was easy with the provided code for the key. The cottage provides everything you'll need for self-supply. Even a supermarket with customer-friendly opening hours is nearby. The cottage is well located for trips around the region. The communication with the host was excellent and always quick. An accommodation to recommend.
