“We absolutely loved Little Thatch.”
After a journey of more than 30 hours from Australia we arrived at a beautiful cottage in a lovely village in the heart of Dorset and it was worth all the hours of research that went into choosing something really special but authentically old English. Sophie, who lives nearby, is friendly, very helpful yet unobtrusive and had left us very welcome staples and rather special treats. She had emailed me comprehensive information and directions so our arrival was smooth and easy. The location is perfect being within the village and easy walking distance to the great pubs and shop and yet surrounded by beautiful walks in the countryside. There is a wealth of travel guides, maps and literature available. The cottage is extremely well equipped, especially the delightful kitchen and everything is very clean and fresh. With roses and wisteria climbing over the front of the cottage under the overhanging thatch and clematis along the wall in the cosy back garden, Little Thatch must surely be the quintessential English cottage. We are looking forward to returning as there are endless delights in the surrounding area.
