From the minute I arrived to the sound of bird song along with ducks and a cockerell, I felt complete joy! It is a beautiful little annex with an immaculate garden. Although I was studying and away during the day, coming home was a pleasure and I felt at peace. I would wake early (not from the cockerell as the walls are about a foot thick!), thrRead moreow open the window and door and enjoy the birdsong. The cottage has everything you need and is beautifully clean. I shall certainly be back and enjoy the stay again, but perhaps without any study courses. Jackie was a lovely host with very nice ybiscuits there on arrival for my first cuppa. Hide

This was the perfect little base for exploring a part of the country new to me. I was made to feel very welcome. The cottage was very comfortable and had everything I needed. The location is so quiet and I enjoyed exploring local walks on well marked paths.

Lovely but small accommodation. The comfortable bed had a good quality mattress so we had good nights sleep every night. The kitchen is fine but is small enough that it could be a problem if you have mobility issues. Lovely outdoor space to sit and have an evening coffee (or glass of wine).

Beautiful little cottage with everything needed for a trouble free break. Very quiet and fairly secluded with a very pleasant garden that had a very sunny aspect. Perfect for a lovely break in the Dorset countryside and a very attentive host for which nothing was too much trouble.

Cosy and comfortable cottage in lovely location. 45 minutes to beaches and Coastal path. Jackie was an excellent host. She was very friendly and welcoming and gave lots of advice on places to visit. Very enjoyable break and hope to return.

This quaint cottage is in a quiet village. It had everything needed for our short stay. There was a pub within walking distance and was a great location for the things we had planned to do. We spoke with Jackie a few times during our stay. She was a great host from providing really detailed and accurate directions to the cottage and saying a friendRead morely goodbye on our way out.

Extremely comfortable and clean cottage. Jackie very kindly accepted a late booking for us. Little Greenacres had all we needed for a very peaceful break away. It was lovely sitting in the little garden after being out and about all day. We liked the village of Hazlebury Bryan and would like to return to Greenacres later in the year.

We had a lovely week in the cottage. Everything was clean and Jackie had provided for all our needs and was very welcoming. Situated in a quiet village with plenty to keep us occupied within 45 minutes of driving. The small garden was lovely to sit in as the weather during our stay was dry and sunny .
