Everything about The Old Dairy exceeded our expectations. This is a beautiful property that is obviously very well looked after by the owners and it’s so comfortable and cosy that it’s makes an excellent holiday destination all year round. There is plenty to do close by for children and there are also some lovely forest walks and local pubs serving good food, so everyone is happy. We hope to be back again for another stay soon! ...

This was a first class property, well equipped with nothing spared to make it feel luxurious. The electronic gates made it very secure. It was very convenient to head out to various coastal locations. Our worry regarding the goats was unfounded as there was no noise or smells from them. Highly recommend....

Lovely cottage. As a family of 4, we were so happy with our stay. The pictures don’t do justice of just how spacious it is. I cannot recommend this cottage enough. We will definitely be returning. Congratulations to the owners on doing such a great job!...

Our recent stay at The Old Dairy was just lovely in every way, from the welcome G & T on arrival to the bath salts to enjoy in the roll top bath. The refurbishment of the The Barn is finished to a very high standard and quality throughout together with beautiful decor. Also, to wake up next to the goats was a delight , they are very quiet lovely creatures and it was lovely to watch them over the fence with morning coffee and in the evenings with a glass. We very much hope to return and would highly recommend this jewel of a find in a beautiful part of Dorest. The Rozario family ,Surrey...

The Old Dairy farm is a lovely and cosy home. We enjoyed our time and wished we stayed a bit longer than 6 nights. I highly recommend this property and would book with Louisa (owner) again and stay there longer next time.
