Top Dinosaur Museum Hotel Reviews

Yalbury Cottage

10/10 Excellent

"From the moment we were warmly greeted and shown to our room the place felt very homely and relaxing. It's a beautiful, quiet, countryside setting and we will certainly be back!"

Barn conversion, quiet location and heated swimming pool ( from mid May)

10/10 Excellent

"We visited for an early summer holiday with our three children (5, 3 and 7 months) There wasn't too much sunshine but the barn provided a great base to explore all that Dorchester and Weymouth have to offer. We were very comfortable and enjoyed the gardens and the pool - when the weather allowed! Richard was a great host - very friendly and helpful. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone who is thinking of visiting Dorset!"

Delightful thatched cottage in beautiful sleepy Dorset village and countryside

8/10 Good

"Lovely cottage with plenty of space for 8 of us. The kitchen was nice and having two fridges was great. No ventilation in either of the en suites which wasn't ideal. The house has very low beams and 6 out of 8 of us whacked our heads once or twice (one person being left with a bleeding head). Needs better 'mind your head' signs or padding on the really low ones. Garden was lovely but it could really do with some decent/comfortable garden furniture. Nice pub next door with decent food."

Newly refurbished thatched cottage in beautiful sleepy village

10/10 Excellent

"Great holiday cottage. Managed to get 3 cars on driveway - ( 1 small car:2 average size ) as we traveling from different places to spend Easter together . Great local pub new inn - thanks Jonathan for sharing your local knowledge. Great little village . Love to come back again "
