“A lovely cosy cottage in a picture postcard village.”

This is an excellent location to explore from either by car or by foot as there are a number of great scenic walks from the village itself. The village pub is very welcoming and overall for me a week was not enough.

“Great location, nice and clean but why so mean?”

We've stayed in lots of other cottages where we've had a welcome hamper and flowers, but in Blueberry Cottage, the one dishwasher tablet left strategically on the worktop sort of says it all really,.

- Christine, August 2024

Thank you for feedback and we are pleased you loved the location of our cottage and found it to have a high quality of cleaniness. We are sorry that you expected flowers and a hamper but in order to keep our cottage completitively priced we provide a welcome pack of biscuits, tea coffee and milk ready on arrival, as do lots of other Dream Cottages. There are normally several dishwasher tablets left for customers use, and we are sorry that you seem to have only received one. Your comments have all been taken on board and will be given consideration by Dream Cottages. Property Owner
Sarah August 2024

“A wonderful cottage in a absolutely stunning village.”

A small walk from the cottage takes you to the village pub. And the duck pond. There are many walks in the area that are suitable for dog walkers. Supermarkets within a 15 minute drive. And lots of local attractions. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would definitely recommend it.

- Sarah, August 2024

Thank you for your lovely feedback which is appreciated. Thank you for your recommendation. x Property Owner

Nicholas November 2023

“For people who bring their dogs, we think it would be a good idea to have an outside tap so that we could hose them off after they have been out walking or on the beach.”

Also there was no spare bin bags, although this may of been an oversite. But apart from that we were very impressed again with Blueberry cottage after our second visit.

- Nicholas, November 2023

Thank you for your feedback and we are so pleased that you were impressed with the cottage.. The spare bin bags were in the bottom of the bin, but due to your feedback, which is appreciated these will now be placed under the sink. We look forward to your next visit. Property Owner

Joan November 2023

“We have stayed here several times and it has always been good.”

Arriving in November, there was a lovely warm welcome on arrival the heating was on and tea, coffee, milk and biscuits. The only thing was why is it still a 5pm admission? All other properties we stay at have reverted back to there pre-Covid times.

- Joan, November 2023

Thank you for your lovely feedback. With regard to arrival time, Dream Cottages recommend that arrival is 5pm to aviod Covid risks. We are happy for our guests to arrive at 3pm and will now convey this to Dream cottages. We hope to be able to accomodate you again. Property Owner
Andrew September 2023

“Lovely cottage in a lovely village.”

Pub food is good and the cottage is in a great location to visit the local area.

- Andrew, September 2023

Thank you for your feedback. Great to know you loved Sutton Poyntz and the pub which is just a hop skip and jump away. Hope to welcome you back again. x Property Owner
Catherine September 2023

“We enjoyed our stay in Blueberry Cottage which was comfortable and well appointed, the only drawback was the cheap cooker which was really awkward to use and slow to heat up.”

Otherwise, the village is a great place to stay, not far from the coast and we couldn't believe how quiet it was.

- Catherine, September 2023
Susie August 2023

“We love staying at Blueberry Cottage it is such a comfortable cottage for the family.”

It has everything we need. The surrounding countryside is idyllic for walks and being at one with nature. The village community is so welcoming and friendly too.

Thank you so very much for your lovely feedback. We are glad you love the cottage and village as much as we do. Hope to house you again. x Property Owner
Brian June 2023

“Lovely cottage great location, Springfield pub very welcoming great food more importantly to us our dog was welcome locals friendly.”

Huge parking problems Unfortunately on arrival the oven needed cleaning. TV poor reception Quite disappointed not to have a dog welcome pack. Thank you for our milk, tea, coffee and biscuits. Overall we had a fantastic holiday. Not happy stripping bedding

- Brian, June 2023

Dear Guest, thank you for your feedback and for letting us know that there were a few things that need re-checking. We are pleased that you had a lovely holiday. The TV has been retuned to resolve the reception issue. We normally have such lovely comments about how clean the cottage is, and apologise that the cooker did not come up to your standard on this occasion.. We appreciate that you notified us of these issues so that they could be corrected. Since the covid restrictions we have requested that guests assist by stripping the beds so that the cleaner does not have to handle the dirty sheets, but this is only a request. We are sorry that this made you unhappy. We hope that you will choose to visit us again in the future. Property Owner

We had a comfortable stay at blueberry cottage,Only a downstairs bathroom which wasn’t made clear, no basic salt pepper, oil hand wash,etc but enjoyed our stay

- Richard, April 2023

Thank you for your feedback and we are pleased you enjoyed your stay. Unfortunately, since the Covid pandemic we do leave some dishwasher tabs and washing up liquid, but no food for hygiene reasons. As the cottage is a genuine small cottage , the only way that we could get a fully functional bathroom was to house this in an extention on the ground floor, and although this is stated on the details I am sorry that you felt it was unclear. Hopefully the fact that the bathroom is newly furbished with both bath and shower made up for the inconvenience. Property Owner
Richard April 2023

“There are two things that were unsatisfactory.”

The first was that the recycling provision was woeful. All that could be recycled at this property was glass, aerosols (!) and cans. Having stayed in Sutton Poyntz previously I know the Council recycles much more. I wou9 suggest this is addressed. The other issue was that the lighting over the hob was poor, verging on dangerous. The under cabinet lights didn’t extend over the hob and the extractor light, which was provided by blue bulbs was worse than useless. Who puts blue bulbs in an extractor hood? Other than these two issues, which I am very unimpressed by, the cottage was good.

- Richard, April 2023
Beverley February 2023

“Blueberry cottage is lovely and cosy, it has all the amenities you want and beautifully comfortable beds, the owners were very helpful when asked.”

And the cottage is set in a pretty, friendly village, a really good dog friendly pub is just 60 steps from the cottage ( not that we were counting!) The only thing we found was that the sofas were uncomfortable but we loved everything else about this lovely cottage.

- Beverley, February 2023

Thank you for your lovely feedback and great that you loved our local dog friendly pub. I am sorry that the sofas were not quite to your liking, but we had chose leather so that they can be cleaned with leather wipes for hygiene reasons, and sometimes people allow their dogs to sit on them. I will look at increasing the amount of cushions now that we are a bit more free of covid restrictions. We hope that we will be able to welcome you again in the future. Property Owner

First time away for Christmas and new year, was the best 2 weeks, we really enjoyed it, the cottage was absolutely beautiful, the bed was very comfortable, cleanliness was good, we also had a cleaner come out midweek to clean and change all beddings, would highly recommend this cottage, will definitely be back there in the future

- Aiden, December 2022

Thank you for your lovely feedback. We look forward to welcoming the three of you back in the future. Hope everything is going well for you all xxx Property Owner

“Lovely cottage!”

Perfect for us and the hound. Beautiful village, great pub over the road.

Janice November 2022

“We loved the house and location and thought it very good value.”

The older part of the cottage is full of character with stone walls and tiled floors (good for when you come back in muddy boots) and the newer extension includes the bathroom and kitchen which is spacious, warm and sunny. The bed was very comfortable too.

- Janice, November 2022

Thank you for the lovely feedback. Especially great to know that you found the memory foam king size bed comfortable, and that you found the cottage nice and warm during what was a very cold November this year. We do appreciate this feedback. Property Owner
Derek September 2022

“We had a fantastic time.”

Loved the location and the cottage. A few observations were: There is no clothes airer to dry clothes inside if the weather is bad. The sofa has seen better days and is very uncomfortable. Also the iron and ironing board needs replacing. The double mattress is very uncomfortable and much too soft. Sykes cottages need to be very clear that the cottage has downstairs toilet only.

- Derek, September 2022

Thank you for taking the time to give us some feedback regarding our cottage. We inspected the iron and the ironing board and the iron was found to have been burned by a previous guest, and we were unaware. You are correct in that the cover of the ironing board was also burned and damaged, and these have both now been replaced with new. The king size bed is a curved slatted base with a modern memory foam mattress, which does feel different from a traditional divan and I am sorry that this was not to your liking. The sofas in the lounge are both modern leather sofas, and again are different in feel from a soft material suite. We have leather for hygienic reasons as they can be washed over regularly. We are pleased that you enjoyed your holiday and loved the cottage and village location, and are disappointed that for various reasons you do not wish to rebook. Once again, thank you for your feedback which gave us the opportunity to correct some minor issues for future guests. The Owner. Property Owner
Joan September 2022

“The property is adequate.”

Lovely bright and spacious kitchen, nice outdoor area. The bedrooms not on the big side and the lounge a bit gloomy. In a great location, peaceful and very pretty.

- Joan, September 2022
Tracey August 2022

“Beautiful cottage, spotlessly clean with very comfortable bed!”

It is situated right in the heart of Sutton Poyntz with some great walks and pubs on your doorstep. My only criticism would be the absence of cushions on the patio chairs, the cottage has a lovely sunny patio area however the metal chairs which are provided(which have obviously had the cushions removed) are so uncomfortable it is quite impossible to sit on them unless you perch on the edge. I am not quite sure why the cushions have been removed perhaps due to getting wet if it rains, however maybe wooden or wicker chairs would be a preferable more practical and definitely more comfortable option?

- Tracey, August 2022

Thankyou for your feedback I am pleased you found thought cottage was beautiful. I have replaced the chairs and hopefully guests will find these more comfortable. We hope to welcome you back soon Property Owner
Joanne August 2022

“The cottage was lovely and as described.”

It was in a beautiful setting, near to a pub and shops were a short drive away. Other reviews stated that there is limited parking near the cottage. I agree, but we always managed to get a space each day . At the cottage itself, the outdoor chairs needed cushions as they were very uncomfortable without. The landing light also needed a bulb in it, but these are minor issues. We had a wonderful time and I would highly recommend this accommodation.

- Joanne, August 2022
Neil July 2022

“We had to go out and buy basics, such as bleach, cooking oil, salt and pepper.”

Wherever we have stayed this has always been left. Obviously not a major problem bit if you want the property left clean and tidy it would be helpful to leave Anti bac for the kitchen and bleach for the toilet. Otherwise cracking little cottage.

- Neil, July 2022
Eric July 2022

“Lovely cottage, beautiful location, everything we needed for ourselves & our dog - some nice pubs in walking distance from the cottage.”

Some fantastic walks in the countryside to take the dog.

- Eric, July 2022
Helen June 2022

“The cottages was very pleasant, clean and comfortable.”

The only thing we would say negatively is the outside seating needs to be addressed as the chairs had no cushions and were most uncomfortable without. The only other downside is the parking, we could not park outside of the cottage at all as the cars that were parked there when we arrived on the Friday evening didn't move all week, we therefore parked outside of the pub but when it is high season and busy that may prove very difficult to do. Other than these two little niggles we had a lovely week and enjoyed the cottage very much. The best places to eat are The Smugglers Inn at Osmington Mills and the Seven Stars at Moreton both of these are so much better than the pub in the village both food and atmosphere also The Crown Inn at Stickland does a really good Sunday roast.

- Helen, June 2022

“Had an absolutely great holiday at Bluberry cottage with our dog, the village was so pretty and welcoming, the cottage exceeded our expectations.”

Angie August 2021

“Booking with Sykes is so easy and hassle free- would highly recommend!”

Our Cottage was in a perfect location, lovely and quiet and had all the amenities. Only fault is the hob doesn’t heat well at all and so needs replacing or fixing apart from that I would definitely stay here again!

Think they perhaps should have a fitted cushion on that weren’t included.

“It was our 2nd visit to this cottage, and we would go again, perfect location in ...”

It was our 2nd visit to this cottage, and we would go again, perfect location in Sutton Poyntz and for visiting Dorset - only issues were that the hob only seems to work on the 2 smaller rings and so it could do with replacing for a better one, it made cooking a meal a chore when it shouldn't be and that the outdoor patio chairs are uncomfortable ones for sitting on and could do with some seating pads for them or again replacing - everything else was perfect

- Kathryn, July 2021
Wendy July 2021

“Lovely little cottage in the beautiful village.”

Ideal for my dog, and loads of country, coastal walks. Only down side there very pepply beaches.

- Wendy, July 2021
Malcolm May 2021

“Pleasant cottage in a beautiful village.”

Within 30 minutes walk to the beach at Bowleaze. Parking near to the property is an issue as local residents take up most spaces available. The property was very clean and tidy. Lovely outdoor space. The electric hob is not very efficient and the gas fire would not turn on. However a very enjoyable stay.

- Malcolm, May 2021
Jackie April 2021

“Cottage was really lovely with everything we needed.”

Set in a beautiful little village with pub opposite duck pond. Our only problem, and this is us and not the cottage owners fault, was that we have a spaniel and the wall around the garden is only about 4 foot high, which he jumped within about 3 minutes of our arrival. Other than that we had a lovely week away with plenty of good dog walks on the doorstep. Bowleaze beach within walking distance also very pleasant.

- Jackie, April 2021
Ali October 2020

“It was a really nice and comfortable cottage and we had a great time.”

However, there were three issues: 1- No private parking. Off-road parking was difficult due to a very narrow road. 2- The hub was not strong enough to cook on (low heat output). 3- The cold basin tap in the bathroom was loose and leaking (which I called to report to the owner).

- Ali, October 2020
Paul October 2020

“We enjoyed our stay and the cottage is very nice, the village is lovely, parking could be an issue but we were lucky and managed to park outside most days.”

Lack of an upstairs loo could be an issue for some folks. The kitchen is looking rather tired with damaged units and the hob is very slow to warm up.

- Paul, October 2020
John October 2020

“Blueberry cottage is very nice, well maintained and modern, warm, good facilities, enjoyable place to stay.”

The location, almost equidistant between Weymouth and Dorchester and in a quiet village is excellent. On the downside, car parking is a problem. There is no designated parking spot for the cottage and the locals are extremely possessive of any spaces going, including in front of the cottage itself. We parked as far as 200 yards away opposite the village pub. A minor problem concerns the loo which is on the ground floor off the kitchen. Navigating steep stairs from the bedroom in the night to visit the loo is not ideal. Almost reminds me of early years, at least this loo is inside! On a wider issue, why do Sykes insist on Friday to Friday lettings? Friday is the worst day of the week for road travel. Arriving on holiday in an unfamiliar place fraught from Friday travel is not the best start to a holiday. We use other holiday cottage agencies who are happy with Saturday to Saturday lettings and I'm afraid whilst Sykes continue with this Friday to Friday situation, we shall prioritise those other agencies for cottage bookings.

- John, October 2020
Andrea September 2020

“We were delayed access by 7 hours to facilitate the COVID clean.”

The work surfaces, glasses, cooker were dirty. Under the toaster and microwave was ground in dirt. The soft cushions on the settees smelt disgusting and there were sweet wrappers and a red cardigan under one of the beds. Cleaning, they don’t know the meaning of the word.

- Andrea, September 2020
Brian September 2020

“This was our 3rd stay at Blueberry Cottage and was as good as always.”

Lovely cottage in excellent location.

- Brian, September 2020
Dave August 2020

“Cottage is in a central but very quiet position in the beautiful village of Sutton Poyntz.”

Great pub a stones throw away but no noise at night. Minimal traffic down lane. Comfortable beds and peace and quiet meant a good night's sleep every night. Lovely sunny large kitchen with sun trap patio was a highlight of our stay. Neighbours were very friendly. Great walks on your doorstep. I recommend the walk up the hill to sit on the Osmington White Ho rse for amazing views of Weymouth harbour. We would definitely love to stay here again.

- Dave, August 2020
Karl August 2020

“The location is great and the village has a good feel about it, although i am not sure what it would be like out of season with so many rentals available.”

Having a pub in such close proximity was also great. With regards to property, it was very nice although there are a couple of things i would like to point out: 1) It could have been cleaner, a lot of cobwebs in corners of ceilings. - not sure if this was due to lack of use owing to Covid. 2) Oven and hob were next to useless. The hob could do withe being exchanged for a modern one with more effective heating rings. Very old fashioned. The oven was ok, but again rather lacking in punch when cooking. The wifi was a great bonus which kept the kids happy. Overall it was a great stay, with a few minor tweaks it would be a perfect property!

- Karl, August 2020
Catherine March 2020

“Well what a cottage.”

- Stuart, February 2020
June November 2019

“The cottage is in a good location.”

However it is difficult to park close to the cottage, the Lane is narrow and the village does become busy at weekends. The lounge area is quite cool in the winter months and the gas fire did not work. The sofas are uncomfortable, so it was not pleasant to sit and watch TV. I sat on the hard dining chair. As I was uncomfortable I ended my stay early by two days. I did contact Sykes Customer service on my return to inform them of my stay and these problems. Neither they or the owner of the cottage were prepared to offer a small refund by way of compensation . So I was a little disappointed.

- June, November 2019

Thank you for your feedback, the Owner has tested the fire and is pleased to report it is working fine - the Owner would have been happy to pop in to look at this for you and demonstrate how this works. We are sorry you found the leather sofa not to your comfort. Once again, thank you for your feedback. Property Owner
Mrs Streeter August 2019

“Blueberry Cottage is the most splendid holiday home.”

David May 2019

“Very clean and cosy cottage in a great location.”

Only issue was that there were no plugs in basin or bath, no problem if you just wanted to shower. Would recommend and consider returning.

- David, May 2019

Thank you for your valuable feedback and glad you felt Blueberry Cottage was clean and cosy. We are sorry that you did not find the plugs, they were on the shelf in the bathroom but in future the housekeeper will put them on the sink and bath respectively to avoid confusion. Property Owner

“The cottage is lovely and in a perfect setting for a relaxing break, with a fantastic dog friendly pub over the road.”

The staff are very friendly, they serve great food, a great selection of real ales and of course gin. Great walking and cycling in and around the area. The cottage is very well presented and is of a good size, it worked well for 2 adults, 2 teenagers and a small dog. It had everything we needed, apart from a hairdryer which would be helpful. Might be worth mentioning that the cottage has a ground floor bathroom in the description as its not to everyone’s liking but it was fine for us. We would definitely stay there again.

The property

Blueberry Cottage is a pretty holiday home situated in the picture postcard Dorset village of Sutton Poyntz. Take a walk to a nearby duck pond and try out the Springhead country pub which has a reputation for good food and a family atmosphere.

The village is surrounded by excellent country walks for those who like to ramble; a local co-op store is also within walking distance.

Relax on the sofa in front of TV or enjoy a cup of tea by the window whilst waiting for dinner cooked in a bright and very spacious kitchen.

The sunny patio garden at Blueberry Cottage is the perfect location to relax and enjoy an evening sundowner.

The village is just a couple of miles from the nearest beach at Bowleaze Cove, with a main resort beach and the town centre of Weymouth another mile further on.

Alternatively, you may wish to visit one of South Dorset's unique attractions such as Monkey World or the Jurassic Coastline for fossil hunting or enjoying spectacular sea views which are all easily accessible. Blueberry Cottage marries the best combination of a modern yet sympathetically renovated cottage coupled with an internal standard you are looking for and a location that is perfect for coastal and country pursuits as well as exploring all the visitor attractions south Dorset has to offer.
