    Cleaning could have been a little better, found several dead wood lice under bedside table in downstairs bedroom. Would happily stay and recommend to others

  • "Very light airy space."

    All clean and tidy on arrival. Facilities ok, we felt the kitchen could do with a few more pieces of equipment ie serving dishes, jugs, and a butter dish. Excellent showers. Beds comfortable. Plenty of parking.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to leave your feedback. We are so pleased you had a comfortable stay in Budmouth Cottage. We have taken on your points regarding the kitchen equipment and since done a full inventory for future guests. Many thanks and we hope to see you again at North Manor Meadow Cottages.

  • "We stayed in Budmouth this time, we usually stay in one of the larger ones."

    Manor Farm cottages never fail us, lovely clean and comfortable. Everything you need was provided, good information pack. The beds are very comfortable. These cottages are in an ideal rural village setting, plenty of lovely walks and not far from the beach at Weymouth. We love staying at Manor farm and would highly recommend it

  • "The property and location were perfect, just as advertised and very comfortable."

    Would definitely recommend to others and we will book again as a good location to explore the area. Very dog friendly and lots of public footpaths to walk from the accommodation.

  • "Lovely contemporary accommodation with all modern home comforts and comfy beds."

    ...plus 2 bathrooms. Ideal location ( with car) for Dorchester and Weymouth. And nearby footpaths for country walks. We really enjoyed our short stay and will probably return.

  • "The property has super potential and is in a great location for visiting the local area and all it has to offer."

    The standard of the equipment provided left a little bit to be desired. No colander in the kitchen, and an airer of some description would have been handy. Our main issue however was with the cleanliness of the property. On arrival we noticed that the bedding in the double bed was filthy, with dirt all over the duvet cover. To their credit, the staff and cleaning team went out of their way to deal with this, but this just shouldn’t happen. As the week went on it became clearer and clearer that the property had just not been cleaned thoroughly either between stays or in terms of longer term cleanliness and house keeping. The standard was just not acceptable. When you are paying the kind of money that Sykes charge, and the mark up for ‘management’ of the booking is getting higher and higher, and given that check out times are earlier and check in times continue to be much later in the day than pre covid, there really is no excuse for a poor standard of cleanliness. Must try harder !

    But overall loved it.

    Thank you for your feedback. We did notice this on changeover day and have replaced the furniture. We are so pleased you loved your stay. Many thanks, North Manor Meadow Cottages Property Owner

  • "The marketing images of the property do not demonstrate the poor wear and tear or cleanliness of the property."

    When we arrived to the property on the outset it looked lovely however this soon changed upon entering the property. Whilst the property hadn’t been cleaned, the dirt and grime wasn’t just from one missed cleaning this had been built up over time from a lack of thorough cleaning. The internal walls, roller blinds, picture frames, windows, shower, outside table and chairs were filthy dirty with stains, dust, dirt cobwebs or dirty hand marks. The internal doors were pealing and some had chunks missing, curtain in living room had holes, sofa cushions and sofa had food stains, kitchen cupboards were worn and starting to peal at the bottom the outdoor furniture was dirty, rusty and covered in bird poo. Thankfully, I had taken my own cleaning stuff, blankets to cover the sofas, pillow cases etc. We also had wonderful weather so we spent most of our time at the beach. Since returning home I raised the issue with the owner who apologised and assured me that she would put things right, so hopefully future customers don’t have same experience.

    Every thing you need in the accommodation. We were contacted before our arrival and when we were there to make sure all was ok. Good parking facilities and soft lighting at night to make it a welcoming return when returning in the dark. Over all a very comfortable place to stay and will be coming back when we are down in Dorset again.

  • "This was my second visit to Budmouth and I have a third visit booked in September 2021."

    I think the property is looking a little tired. The towels and tea towels plus pillows and crockery especially the mugs could do with looking at and there was a suspicious stain in the downstairs bedroom which could have come from the upstairs shower room. Having said this I would still recommend this beautiful little haven and look forward to my return again later in the year.

    We visited Lulworth Cove, Durdle Door, Portland Bill, Weymouth, West Bay and Chesil Beach, which were stunning, even in the wind and rain! We need to come back in sunnier weather, many thanks! The Cash family

  • "This was our third visit in 4 years."

    Lovely accommodation. The area has poor to zero 4G reception and the internet is slow and intermittent compared with where we live. Freeview is limited to basic channels. OK if you want a peaceful tech-free holiday (which is not a problem of course) but even looking up attractions or routes means going back to a paper based system of brochures and maps. You need to be prepared for that.

    It is well maintained and has everything you need for an enjoyable holiday. Just one downside - if the weather is warm then the main bedroom upstairs gets extremely warm and can make sleeping difficult in our experience. Otherwise great location and a lovely stream just a short walk down the road where our grandchildren fished with nets every evening and had great fun!

    There was ample car parking and very pleasant grounds. There were a couple of pubs and the Wey wishing well all well within 20 mins walking distance. Weymouth itself is a short car journey but we stayed off season which made quite a difference. This group of cottages is well worth considering if visiting the Weymouth area.

About the location

UPWEY

Dorchester 4.5 miles; Weymouth 4 miles.

The picturesque village of Upwey lies just four miles north of Weymouth, nestling beneath the Dorset Ridgeway, and takes its name from the shallow chalk stream, the River Wey, which bubbles up here from an underground spring. Upwey is well-known for its Wishing Well, where George III once sought the benefits of the natural spring water. It is now a delightful tea room, serving lunches and traditional cream teas. There are a number of footpaths leading directly from the village to miles of unspoilt countryside, and close by is the market town of Dorchester, Thomas Hardy’s ’Casterbridge’. An easy drive or bus ride takes you to the popular seaside resort of Weymouth offering visitors glorious golden sandy beaches, excellent watersports facilities and a bustling harbour. An attractive village location and an ideal place to escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
