"Very well presented property, well equipped, everything we needed for our 2-night stay."
Warm welcome from the host on arrival.
Also the WiFi speed was good which is like life support for teenaged kids. (We have stayed at other properties where the WiFi has been almost unusable.)

"Small but well equipped cottage in a lovely village with a great pub."
Use the blinds for privacy and be careful with children on the stairs.

"WOW!
What a fabulous find and base for our little break away exploring Dorset."
John & Jan are fantastic hosts and have created such a lovely little barn conversion, finished to a high spec and in immaculate condition.
Off road parking and a lovely little table and chairs to use in the side garden - perfect for listening to the birds after a long day exploring
Everything you need within the cottage for a perfect stay, high end Neff Appliances in the kitchen, so fully able to make a home cooked meal if you wanted.
The shower in the wet room was excellent quality powerful (which you don't always get everywhere!)
Very good value for money compared to a lot of others properties on the Sykes Website.
Lovely Little Pub (The Cricketers) with nice food within a 5 minute walk from the cottage and a shop not far away. Dairy to get milk from 7am-7pm close by
We slept very well at The Malthouse and will be booking a return stay for 2024 - its a 10/10 from us

"Well equipped and beautiful surroundings."
Nicely decorated house and high standards. The cottage is well located in relation to sights and the coast. Calm location. The village is very pictoresque and welcoming, just a short walk to the local pub, the cricketers.

"The pics look good but bad configuration makes for this property having very little privacy."
As loyal Sykes customers we are very disappointed!!!Just look at The Barn, Frog lane, Anisty to look for improvement of space & a relaxing stay for a similar price.

"Very good. Slightly less thick towels would make them dry faster, but really excellent stay."

"Helpful and friendly hosts and we appreciated touches like the welcome basket."
The house in general was very well appointed and we were very comfortable. The living area and bathroom and bedrooms were all immaculately clean.
The only issue we had was that previous visitors had left various pans and crockery a little unclean or, for instance, with coffee staining in the cups. We had to wash some things quite thoroughly before we could use them
Overall though, this is definitely somewhere we would come again if holidaying in this area.

"A nice cosy place."
The only criticism would be that a full set of smaller saucepans would have been preferred as we struggled with the mixture of pans that were there.

"Smaller than it appears in the pictures only freeview tv/radio so no DVD ."
Hand wash and fairy liquid seemed watered down no toilet paper on arrival (this might be because we were a last minute booking) strange smell in wet room possible due to cupboard base getting wet from the shower . In the lounge some of the hooks were not attached to the curtains little things that
spoil the property on the plus side hosts friendly with a nice dog.Well sited for visiting the area (Hall and Woodhouse well worth a visit)

Everything about it is lovely to look at, comfortable and immaculately clean, with lots of thoughtful additions such as a tailor-made map of the local walks. Our hosts were most welcoming too. We would highly recommend the Malthouse!

"A delightful holiday cottage in a beautiful, friendly village which is almost traffic free!"
The owners of the cottage, who live in the house next door, are very thoughtful and considerate. They welcomed us on arrival and provided a generous hamper - unexpected and much appreciated. They also have a very sweet well behaved old golden retriever, who passed by on occasion to say hello. The cottage was perfectly clean. If you are a walker, there are some fabulous walks in the area - which can take in some lovely villages and pubs/restaurants. There is a farm vending shop about a mile away (when we were there the female cows and their young were in a barn alongside the shop, which was lovely). The farm sells beautiful milk and lots of other basics (including ice-cream!). One of the things that really struck me about the area was how friendly and genuinely thoughtful people are. It is a beautiful cottage to stay in for so many reasons.

"Small but perfectly formed!"
Superb kitchen and facilities. Really well executed. Fab spiral staircase to mezzanine bedroom - great for children. Well situated for Stonehenge, Shaftesbury and Swanage. Walking distance from pub. Lovely welcome basket.
Only improvements could be the outside space available - furniture set-up ready to enjoy and lighter weight duvets.

"Cottage and owners were great."
You said you would investigate that I booked originally on VRBO, your e-mail confirmation had an issue so I could not log onto your site, you then canceled my booking, I then booked on your site direct for 20% more but you would not honor my original booking. I e-mailed and spoke to customer service. They had me send evidence of my original booking but then nothing. This was a three week booking so you would think you would value us as a customer but obviously not. To anyone booking via VRBO beware.
