“Kitchen and Carpets not very clean.”

Carpets not suitable for accommodation with dogs. Kitchen cabinets and radiators not clean. Carpet large wee stains on. Not a very nice smell on entering accommodation for the first time.

“Lovely stay in a great location.”

Cleaners had left some stuff by the back door. The bed was very comfortable and the rooms were lovely. Thank you.

Ursula July 2024

“A very nice property that suited our needs - a small garden for the dog & an electric vehicle charging point.”

Conveniently located - a nice restaurant & a small beach only a short walk away + easy access to Weymouth and other parts of Dorset.

- Ursula, July 2024
Mark July 2024

“We normally stay in older properties so we didn't know what to expect but this was a great find.”

Location is excellent and it's great to have off street parking. There's everything you need . The garden is much nicer and bigger than it's looks in photos and was dog proof even for our escape artist terrier. It wasn't needed but having a car charger must be a plus as there's not many public charges around so that's a great move by the owners Internet is fast and stable and TV is great but a little complicated to use Well equipped kitchen lots of utensils glasses plates etc Would highly recommend

Trudy July 2024

“Lovely comfortable home away from home.”

Great home for our dog too. The only down side for us was the music from the neighbour could be heard over the top of the TV although they did stop at a reasonable hour so didn’t affect our sleep. The location was ideal for us and within a short walk to the beach area in which we could walk our dog.

“A great little property so suited to the two of us.”

Situated in a beautiful area with outlooks to the sea. Lovely walks. Easy journeys to Portland ,Weymouth, and many other places. The house is a home from home and we have booked again for next year. It is very well provisioned with everything you need always so clean and fresh. We love it.

- Marion, May 2024
Christopher March 2024

“Great holiday home.”

Everything we needed. Very comfy and cosy. Lovely view from bedroom window over the sea. Shame the grass hadn’t been cut, was very long.

- Christopher, March 2024
Rosalind Watts January 2024

“We had a lovely stay in Wyke.”

The house was nice and clean, comfortable and there was a good shop nearby. Even my dog enjoyed herself and made a new friend on our morning walk, she looked out for him whenever we passed.

- Rosalind Watts, January 2024
Sarah October 2023

“Sandpiper was a lovely little cottage ideal for two people and their furry friend.”

It spotlessly clean and the welcome folder was a nice touch as was the cleaning bundle. The bed was good and the lounge seating really comfortable. Would definitely recommend.

- Sarah, October 2023
Karen September 2023

“Hello, Thank you for letting us stay at your house .”

We did enjoy it there .Just a couple of suggestions- The garden fence was not completely secure for Dogs . The gaps in the Trellis need filling in .Some cleaning products like Bleach and Jiff would be useful, plus bin liners . A small lamp in the lounge too. Other than this it was fine .

- Karen, September 2023
Lynda September 2023

“The property was comfortable the one down side was the neighbour who would play his music loudly, one evening it started at 9.”

30pm and it was about 11.30pm before it finished. It took the shine off the holiday I wouldn't rebook at Sandpiper. It would be good for you to have prewarned incoming holidaymakers.

- Lynda, September 2023

Hi, we are so very, very, sorry that this has happened and that it took the shine off your holiday. We have done a little investigation and are happy to report that this shouldnt happen again. Once again, please accept our sincerest of apologies, Tom Property Owner
Paul September 2023

“We had a lovely stay at Sandpiper.”

The property is lovely and we would like to return. The only comment we would make is the neighbour plays really loud music late afternoon/early evening but other than that we thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you.

- Paul, September 2023
Pat August 2023

“Lovely house- well equipped kitchen with assorted crockery etc.”

Nice large shower , comfortable bed , space around the bed and nice to have wardrobes with shelving inside . The property was lovely and clean and has been well maintained. We chose the cottage as they accept dogs, had an enclosed garden an EV charger as well as the location. A few minutes walk from the Rodwell trail and there was a small beach area which the dog could go on. We walked into Weymouth , also found free parking only 5 minutes wAlk from the harbour . Would recommend , it is on a small estate , quiet with all the facilities we needed.

- Pat, August 2023
Susan August 2023

“Lovely little house, perfect base for getting around Dorset, we would be happy to use it again.”

- Susan, August 2023
David August 2023

“The interior of the property was very nice modern and comfortable, just a niggle about wardrobes having no handle to open the doors , having to bend down and open from the bottom, outside was a bit tatty the bench needs to be treated and the sheds looked very tatty again needed painting , other than that we had a very nice holiday .”

- David, August 2023
Adrian July 2023

“Sandpiper is a lovely well kept house, with all the equipment you could ever need.”

However, 1 toilet roll, 2 milk portions, 2 teabags, 2 coffee sachets and 2x2 biscuits was a little mean. The electric car charger was very useful.

- Adrian, July 2023
David June 2023

“Had a lovely time the cottage was small but comfortable very well equipped all you need.”

The location on a housing estate didn’t suite us but was easy to get to.a stairs rail should be fitted to the wall we live in a bungalow and had difficulties climbing stairs.parking was not any problem.we had a wonderful holiday and would go back again it was well equipped and spotlessly clean

- David, June 2023
Mike June 2023

“Excellent property.”

Nice area. Good decoration. Big bath towels. Spotlessly clean.

- Mike, June 2023
Kay June 2023

“The accommodation was excellent.”

A prime location for the beach, walks, shops, pub and buses into Weymouth and Portland. The cleanliness was very very good, please give our thanks to the Cleaning Staff. A couple of minor issues...there needs a table and cushions for use with the bench outside. We had to take the cushions from the sofa and a coffee table to use outside. Also, there was not a recycling box for glass bottles so we had to leave them for the cleaners to dispose of for us. Minor issues really. We had a great time and the neighbour, who is a singer/songwriter was very friendly and it was nice to hear him singing and strumming his guitar.

- Kay, June 2023
Carole May 2023

“Lovely property, very well equipped and comfortable.”

Five minutes to the beach, with plenty of dog walks. Weather was fantastic. We had a lovely stay. Thank you. Although it was a secure garden, it was at the front of the house, which wasn’t stated, having taken our dog with us and it being a picket fence we felt we couldn’t leave her unattended in the garden.

- Carole, May 2023
Anthony May 2023

“We loved this property, it was perfect in a lovely location.”

We were unlucky as next door was having some building work done. Only one toilet roll so it's annoying to have to buy some when it is ticked as provided and not just starter roll. The bed was super comfy and towels clean and soft.

- Anthony, May 2023
Rosemary April 2023

“Beautiful cottage meeting all our needs.”

Very clean. Everything is accessible. It was important for us to have a charging for our electric car. This was right outside the door. Close to lovely peaceful walk along the Rodwell trail into Weymouth and towards Portland. We will be back.

- Rosemary, April 2023
Joseph Andrew April 2023

“A pleasant, well furnished and well equipped property.”

As older people we were pleased that it is within very easy reach of local buses. Make sure that you park only in the place allocated. Even though the space beside the allocated one was never used during our week stay we did, on one occasion straddle the two spaces and were presented with a note the following day which was curt and unpleasant

- Joseph Andrew, April 2023
Pauline April 2023

“Lovely property in a great location,comfortable and homely .”

Ideally situated for trips to Weymouth, Portland and Chesil Beach . Rod well Trail on your doorstep.

- Pauline, April 2023
Peter March 2023

“Lovely property which was spotlessly clean.”

Well positioned for nice walks into Weymouth along the Rodwell Trail. We enjoyed our stay there. Only thing I would say is the living room could with a lamp and a mirror on the wall. Otherwise a fantastic little place to stay. Many Thanks for a great week.

- Peter, March 2023
Robert October 2022

“Sandpiper is an ideal base for a holiday in Weymouth.”

The place was very clean and tidy when we arrived. The Chargemaster was an added bonus for our electric car. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook breakfasts and evening meals. The tv with Netflix was lovely to have in the cozy lounge. The bathroom was very nice, with a huge shower with constant hot water. The bedroom was lovely, but the base and mattress were very high from the ground, and caution is required getting in and out of bed! Unfortunately, our holiday had to be cut short because of Storm Claudio, so only stayed 4 nights instead of 7 nights! We would definately love to come back to Sandpiper again, and do all the things we were unable to do because of the very bad weather conditions.

- Robert, October 2022
Leah October 2022

“Lovely property had all facilities needed for a break away.”

Ideal location to the right it led to the Rodwell trail path which takes you an hour stroll along into Weymouth. Turn left from property and you end up on main road with bus stops convenince store pizza, chinese and fish and chips. An all round great property with great location.

- Leah, October 2022
William September 2022

“The house was immaculate and the location was perfect.”

I would definitely return to this property.
