Cottage vacation rentals in Puddletown

Debbie’s place is a little piece of paradise, the setting is stunning, the gardens are fantastic and the cottage is warm and cosy whilst also being spacious and really well laid out. We had everything we needed and immediately felt at home. The open plan kitchen into the cosy living room left us all feeling connected, utility space was really useful, conservatory with stunning views allowed us to dine together and relax during the day. Outside area is also stunning for meals on the patio and bbq’s and the hot tub was great to relax in on an evening looking at the stars in peace and tranquility.. there’s a slight walk up to the property across a field but once you’re in the cottage and its gardens it’s worth every step. Great for the dogs too. Loads to do in the area, our highlight was Lyme Regis beach.. many thanks to Debbie and everyone who made us feel so welcome. We would go back to Debbie’s place in a heartbeat!

We thoroughly enjoyed our 4 night stay. The place is exactly as described, a very cosy little cottage with everything you need. Everywhere was clean and tidy apart from general dust you’d expected, with a lovely little basket of treats left for us on arrival. Check in was self done, flexible, and smooth, same with leaving. Lovely little village, a couple of local pubs within walking distance, lovely cafe just next door along with some very friendly ducks, chickens, lambs, goats and the occasional cat. Would absolutely stay here again and 100% recommend if you’re looking for a cosy and quiet get away. During our stay we explored Cheddar, Glastonbury and Frome, all within an hours drive and lots of lovely cafes and independent shops.

Amy's cottage is an amazing find if you're looking for a Somerset getaway. The place itself is beautiful and perfectly kitted out - especially if you have kids, with crockery, cutlery, a high chair and not to mention the wonderful assortment of games. The hot tub outside under the stars is an added bonus and one you should take up as it was a great way to wind down in the evenings. And Amy was the perfect host - friendly, knowledgeable with her guidebook, and highly responsive. Would definitely recommend her cottage and hope to visit again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend stay at Ruth's stunning cottage. Ruth was a fantastic host, always on hand to answer my many questions (sorry Ruth😅) to walking in to find a lovely hamper. She also had mapped out some walk trails and supplied books / leaflets for local amenities. Cannot fault anything! We loved the hot tub and such a lovely enclosed garden so our dog was free to run around at his own leisure. It felt like a home away from home as we were able to use Ruth's BBQ too! Thanks for having us Ruth!

Fantastic stay at a beautiful location in the New Forest. The hosts were really welcoming and couldn’t have been more helpful with local recommendations, the property is lovely, and all the animals were a big bonus for the kids. Highly recommended and we’d love to return.

We had a lovely few days, lots of room in the house, hot tub and games room a bonus, along with the deer in the garden yesterday morning! Many thanks for the welcome pack and milk.

Our family of five, which includes three adult children, thoroughly enjoyed staying at The Nest. It is as pictured and described and spotlessly clean. We stayed for 3 nights, which included a wedding at a nearby venue, spending time in all the different areas of the cottage, and going for a lovely circular walk from the door. Many thanks Sarah

Had a wonderful two days at The Bothy. Such a beautiful spot and the cottage I think looks even better in real life - and it looks pretty wonderful in the photos! We felt right at home straight away- Chrissy had left some welcome staples which was appreciated and there is everything you need for a truly lovely stay. We made use of the hot tub which was fab and it’s in a very peaceful but convenient location to explore the New Forest. Come - we hope to go back soon.

We have just enjoyed a peaceful and relaxing stay at Grove Cottage. The cottage is beautifully furnished and has everything you could need for a stay. The garden and neighbourhood is tranquil and it’s a short walk to the local pub. Jo and Terry were attentive without being intrusive and we very much appreciated the bottle of cava. Chetnole is a good location for most surrounding tourist attractions. Thank you.

This is the second time we have stayed in this cosy beautifully decorated cottage in Bruton. The location and host are fabulous, with such comfortable and classic furnishings and close to all the best of what Bruton has to offer.

Had a wonderful solo stay with my dog at Dawn’s place. The cottage was cozy, quiet, and perfect for unwinding. Great local walks right from the door, a friendly dog-welcoming pub nearby, and a real sense of peace. Felt safe and relaxed the whole time —would absolutely return. Thanks for having us Dawn!

We had a brilliant stay at the Pink House! The house itself was beautifully decorated and was warm and inviting - we felt really at home here. Deborah was very friendly and responsive in her communication and sent us lots of local recommendations of things to do and places to visit. The garden was really private and we loved the built in BBQ and home-grown tomatoes and cucumbers, and the welcome basket that we're waiting for us when we arrived. The Pink House is in a great location with walks right from the front door and only 15-30 mins drive to the various beaches. We had a wonderful stay and wished we booked for longer - we'll definitely be back again!

What a beautiful little cottage in an ideal location for exploring the Dorset coast. Sally was so helpful and welcoming. A perfect bolt hole for a family of four plus dog - clean; well stocked and in a picturesque setting. Highly recommend!

Jo was a great host. Short walk into Frome by pavement or across the fields and along the river side into town. Nice garden with a chiminea and table and chairs for 4. PS Dogs also enjoyed their stay.

Wonderful half term stay at little Gem Cottage. We used it as a base to explore Dorset, Somerset and even drove through Devon. It is well equipped for a baby with a lovely clean highchair. The kitchen was light and well stocked, we cooked every night.

What a perfect spot to stay in Wells! It is absolutely adorable and so well thought out. An easy short walk to do many great shops, restaurants and of course the cathedral and Bishop’s Palace. We really love everything about Wells and this stay added another level of charm.

A lovely place to stay within walking distance of some great restaurants and shops. The thoughtful touches were really appreciated and the lodge had everything we needed for our stay. We would definitely recommend and stay here again.

Very friendly and helpful hosts. Just what we needed at a stressful time for us. Couldn't do enough to help. Hope to go there again.

Beautifully restored home in the most extraordinary location - opposite the Church, and with the remains of the ancient Abbey just down the road. Everything in the house is the finest quality - even the hairdryers are GHD! You’ll be very comfortable. Pollyanna was a perfect host. Three characterful pubs in this small, quaint town, and just a 15 minute drive to Dorchester (go to the Curiosity Centre!). Would very happily stay again.

We stayed for 4 days, Ava and Chris were very welcoming. Their cottage has a well stocked kitchen, they welcomed us with wine, bread, milk and butter as well as a lovely gift for each of my toddlers which was a lovely surprise! The beds are comfortable, there's lots of hot water for baths and showers. Location wise it's very easy to get to so many places. We have friends in Yeovil, visited Longleat and Weymouth. We'll certainly stay again. Luckily we checked the instructions in the guest book, you need to take out the rubbish and strip the beds upon leaving. all very straightforward instructions. Thank you for a lovely stay.

The cottage was everything I could have hoped for and more. It was beautifully decorated, perfectly clean, and the attention to detail incredible - right down to the bread and homemade marmalade that was left for me on my arrival. Lavinia herself was an exceptional host - so welcoming and friendly. Her instructions for my arrival were very clear, and she made sure I always had everything I needed during my stay. I honestly could not recommend Lavinia and her lovely cottage more.

Amazing stay in the place, Lovely pubs around & friendly faces. Clean space and Petra very attentive and easy instructions to get access to the house. Thankyou for our stay Petra! x

This was a lovely stay! Clean, cosy and well equipped with everything. Communication with the hosts was brilliant and I appreciated the balloons and banner they put up. Highly recommend this air bnb.

The house was fantastic - beautifully furnished, thoughtfully laid out, spotlessly clean, and kitchen was equipped with our every need. the balcony was a peaceful haven in the morning and the communal garden is a delight with so many little areas to sit in tranquility, - and from both can enjoy the fabulous birdsong!! it was always quiet and peaceful. Communication was very good and clare was there to greet us as we arrived - welcoming, with just the right amount of info and guidance. Thank you so much for a truly comfortable and relaxing weekend It’s been hard coming home!
