The B Family
We have enjoyed staying in many attractive country cottages over he years - but Hope Cottage stands out as one of the best, thanks to it perfect combination of comfort, character and location. Hope's bright and spacious interior has been wonderfully appointed and furnished with impeccable tate - with many delightful quirky touches that add to the overall ambience. Best of all are the unforgettable views stretching for miles across the rolling Dorset countryside. The most lasting impression of all will always be the delightful terraced garden sloping down from the cottage to a tree.

In short, Ryall Hope was for us, the Perfect 'Dorset Hideaway' and one that we shall long remember!
