What our customers say about their holidays

• Becky - Verified booking

  This is so close to being a top-notch holiday let.

  There were just a handful of minor things that could be improved to make it wonderful: (1) It feels quite impersonal, probably because it’s so new. A few pictures on the walls, some books/dvds/board games maybe, would make things feel more homely. (2) The smallest bedroom would be better as a single not twin room, as there’s no room for any furniture other than the two beds. Where are the incumbents meant to put their clothes? (3) The dining room part of the kitchen has poor lighting … flickery and dim. It would be great if the following things could be provided: (1) A folder of information for the property, i.e. a place for the various manuals, local info, useful phone numbers, owner’s contact details etc. Some of these were available but we had to hunt around for them. (2) A few hooks on bathroom and bedroom doors would be really useful. (3) It’s generally a pretty baby-/toddler-friendly property, but supplying things like a high chair, a travel cot, a stair gate etc. would be incredibly helpful for groups with small children. There were some really positive pieces of feedback from our group: (1) It’s a very comfortable house, decorated to a high standard, in a great location. (2) The kitchen is very well-equipped for those wanting to cook on holiday. (3) As the parents of a toddler, we were very grateful for a large, comfortable bed and super blackout blinds! (4) When the wifi stopped working, the owner was quick to come and sort it out.

  We had a lovely stay.

  The Granary exceeded expectations. Newly finished. The beds were comfy kings, not double. The showers were double: rain and hand, a rare treat was shower storage: somewhere to put your shower needs, thank you, no bending to the floor every few mins. Each bathroom had a heated steamfree lit mirror, touch activated, with shaver socket tucked at the side. Storage drawers under the basins. There was a huge toastily warm airing cupboard, ideal for drying things, with iron and ironing board and hairdrier ( these three not listed) Downstairs had a superb kitchen diner, lovely crockery, usual appliances. Welcome treat much appreciated. The lounge had three comfy leather sofas, nest of tables, log burner, tv. Wifi coped with three of us on it. Downstairs toilet. Thank you for the hand towel, often omitted at some places. Hallway has coat hooks, room for some shoes or in the kitchen. Downstairs had curtains, upstairs had roman and velux blinds, not shown in photos. The cottage was toasty, lots hot water. Downstairs each room had digital room thermostats. Garden furniture, seat cushions in the under stairs cupd with mop, brushes and a “Henry”. The owners were lovely, friendly, informative and available. Two pubs within a short walk. 10% off at the Hive beach cafe at the nearby N Trust carpark, though you can walk there. Lovely beach n cliff walks. I felt the listing undersold the cottage with more writing about the scenic experience than the detail.

  This is our first trip back to Burton Bradstock in over 35years and we couldn’t of picked a better place to stay than the Granary!

  The very nice owner met us on arrival and explained everything which was good. The house is stunning (I’d move in there tomorrow), 3 good bedrooms (1 is en suite) a massive kitchen/dinning room and good size lounge. It’s all been finished to a very high standard with top of the range appliances in the kitchen and lovely oak furniture in the bedrooms. It’s only a couple of minutes walk to the 2 Burton Bradstock pubs/restaurants the Anchor and the Three Horseshoes. Food is very good in both although we preferred the Horseshoes, it has a walk-in garden where you can eat and drink but if you want to eat inside you need to book (book before you leave home it’s very busy). There was only myself and wife staying for the week so we had plenty of room, however we didn’t sleep in the master bedroom with en-suite as we preferred the next large bedroom which was a lot brighter and had a bedside unit either side of the bed which the master room doesn’t have. The only thing I’d like to see added would be hooks on the bathroom doors for towels/dressing gowns. On a side note (not anything to do with the Granary) nearly all the parking in the area uses JustPark for if you don’t have the money for the slot, I’d advise you to download the app on your phone and set up your account before you arrive, saves a lot of time rather then messing about in a car park doing it.

  The property is finished to an extremely high standard and is well equipped with high end appliances and comfortable furniture including the beds.

  Everything was very clean and well presented, The small back garden could do with some attention to make it more attractive and the garden fork left in the ground didn't help that view. It was a shame that when we stayed work was taking place on the roof of an adjacent building, with scaffolding in place which rather spoiled that view. However, we found this an ideal base for exploring Dorset and the pretty buildings and facilities of Burton Bradstock are but a few minutes walk away. Peter, the owner, was attentive, friendly and informative but never intrusive. That balance was just right. We very much enjoyed our stay.

  My family and I loved this holiday destination.

  The cottage had plenty of space and the owners met us there and were very nice. It was very comfortable with two spacious rooms and one smaller. The twin room only had two beds and no other furniture but this wasn't really an issue, and the only other thing I would have liked was if there was hand soap in the bathrooms, but that's just a personal preference for me. Overall it was an amazing stay, right in the middle of so many things to do. We loved going into Weymouth and doing the Jurassic coastal cruise and heading over to Dorchester to look in the many museums
