Beautiful spacious cottage in a great location village is lovely, picturesque and very quiet. Cottage is just down the a lane off the main road so we found it really easy to get about in car but also so some lovely walks directly from the door. We have stayed in many many cottages over the years and this is definitely one of the best.

A wonderful week at Thyme cottage. Osmington is a lovely village with old fashioned charm. It is quiet and tranquil with many walks from the doorstep, be it rolling countryside or coastal views. The cottage itself was spacious, with room for our party of 5 to spread out and find some space to read a book, watch a film or relax in the cottage gardenRead more. Kitchen equipment was plentiful, a good array of books, cds and board games. Property was clean, cosy and welcoming. Hide
