"Second stay here, this time stayed at upper butchers cottage, last time lower butchers cottage."
Upper cottage quieter from road noise, and well equipped in large island kitchen and beautiful views across the hills and farmland. Owners are lovely people , alistair and janet , who accomodate anything you need . Nice little garden areas on a nice sunny day is a sun trap. Central to dorchester and weymouth beach only 10 mins drive or bus from door to door. Would highly recommend as base for anglers 15 mins from chesil beach. Will return next year as love these cottages.

"Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Upper Butchers Cottage as did our two small dogs."
Very clean, spacious and comfortable. Lovely enclosed garden with seating to enjoy the sunshine. Apartment is well equipped and a very comfortable bed. Small shop across the road is very convenient and a regular bus (every 20mins) into Weymouth and Dorchester. We visited both village pubs and had good meals and the Sunday Lunch at Upwey Wishing Well was excellent (recommend).

"I had the most enjoyable stay at Upper Butchers."
Everything was spotless, airy and light. I was overwhelmed by place. The kitchen was very modern with everything that I needed. The living room was spacious, with a very comfortable sofa.
I think that it was the best Sykes holiday accommodation that I have been to!
The location is fabulous for all I wanted in the area - and there is plenty to see and do. The owners were very friendly and helpful.

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cottage and was surprised that it is so spacious for just a cottage for 2."
However an idea would be to perhaps provide a little welcome pack for your guests as this is something many cottages provide now and is much appreciated and just adds that finishing touch

Comfortable bed . Hot, powerful shower. Well equipped kitchen with modern appliances and knives that actually cut! I don't have any negative comments. For those who like a rest from driving, there are bus stops for Weymouth and Dorchester only minutes away. Keen gardeners should visit The Island Nursery for well kept plants and delicious cake - the perfect combination.

We loved sitting at the table in the big window in the lounge and looking out at the wonderful view. Very comfortable bed, for a good night's sleep. Shop across the road, very convenient and friendly staff. Very dog friendly place. People in Weymouth are very friendly and greet you, while out and about. We have already booked to go back to the lower cottage next year to do some more exploring of this wonderful area.

The cottage it's self was exceptionally clean with all that you could possibly want for a week away. (fridge/freezer a bit small though). Location is perfect for all the beaches you need, major supermarkets only a 3 minute drive away. For great meal out over looking the distant sea try the Fat Badger. Dave Emma and the Yorkies.

"Really enjoyed our stay at Upper Butchers Cottage, the owners were very friendly and helpful."
The kitchen and bathroom is a bit dated, but it all works fine and was sparkling clean. 42” LG smart TV with great connectivity is always a bonus, and the view over the Dorset hills is spectacular. The road is not particularly busy and since the bedroom is on the back, even with all the windows open at night it was surprisingly quiet. The garden is sunny till about 8pm in high summer which enabled us to use our own BBQ for some meals.

"We had such an amazing week at Upper Butchers Cottage!"
The location was absolutely perfect for exploring Dorset and the cottage itself was spotless and super cosy. We were very lucky with the weather all week so made use of the enclosed garden! We really enjoyed sitting out on the deck chairs for a few hours in the evening after walks along the beach. Beach towels & dog towels provided which I thought was a lovely touch! We also loved the big window in the living room, the view is so nice and we enjoyed a cup of tea looking out on a morning!
We visited Bowleaze Cove, Weymouth, Ringstead Bay, Lyme Regis, Dorchester, Durdle Door, Lulworth Cove, West Bay, Chesil Beach and Portland during our stay - all within an hour drive and all stunning places!
It was our first holiday with our puppy Archie and everywhere was so dog friendly - it was great! We can highly recommend a few places to eat during your stay:
- The Lookout Cafe at Bowleaze Cove for a top breakfast!
- Lulworth Cove Inn - great little sun spot and really good food!
- The Bell Cliff cafe at Lyme Regis - amazing views! Perfect stop for a coffee!
- The cafe on Portland island does a delicious cream tea.
- Lyme’s Fish Bar in Lyme Regis for fish & chips!
- All the cafes/restaurants along the Harbour in Weymouth are lovely! Such a nice spot to sit for a drink or a bite to eat. We went to Custom House Cafe & Quayside Bar - both really good!
We are quite honestly so upset to be home! The owners are also lovely! Very friendly and kind and we had a good chat with them :) I can’t recommend this beautiful cottage enough, we felt right at home all week and Archie really enjoyed himself too! I’m sure we will be back again!

"A brilliant holiday stay situated in the perfect location for the all places we wanted to visit."
It was clean and comfortable. Beach towels were a nice touch (but we had brought our own) as were the binoculars so we could look at the wildlife from the large window in the living room which had stunning views.
The owners and their pets were incredibly friendly and made us feel welcome.
The shared garden was lovely to relax in on a sunny afternoon.
I highly recommend.
