Guests appreciated the peaceful setting and amenities for pets but suggested improvements like better kitchen supplies and an updated information pack.

The property

A self-contained, semi-detached Dorset cottage, a wing of the owner's farmhouse, peacefully situated on a working dairy farm on the Downs close to the charming village of Mosterton, on the borders of West Dorset and South Somerset. The cottage offers well-equipped, comfortable accommodation, with outstanding views across the Axe Valley, as well as a cosy open fire and sunny conservatory, and is a perfect place for relaxing after a day exploring this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Enjoy a fresh egg for breakfast from one of the free range hens, watch the calves being fed or take a stroll along one of the numerous footpaths which criss-cross this 180-acre farm.
