We had booked the Hayloft cottage at Norburton Hall specifically because it was "dog friendly" and because it had been recommended to us.  We had no prior knowledge of the gorgeous village of Burton Bradstock, Dorset. The village was chocolate box perfect and the cottage was well appointed and a home from home.  Within the grounds of Norburton Hall, there... More

Having just returned from an easter weekend break at Norburton Hall I can not recommend this venue and area highly enough. We have two young girls and found plenty to do with-in a short drive. The area is spoilt with really good pub's and cafes, the three house shoes and the hive are our favourites. Having stayed at Norburton Hall... More

We stayed in both the Stables and the Dairy Cottage. We needed somewhere peaceful in nice,quiet grounds, close to the sea and good food available nearby in abundance. We got what we wanted! Reading previous glowing reviews of the hostess, Karen, she seemed to good to be true. Well, we can confirm, she really is the perfect hostess. We had... More

I came to Burton Bradstock to ask my girlfriend to do me the honour of becoming my wife......which she foolishly agreed to. We stayed in The Hayloft and absolutely loved it - a beautiful, rustic, spacious, well appointed and incredibly warm and cosy self-catering lodge, full of charm. Karen bent over backwards to make sure that our stay was memorable,... More

My husband and I are very picky about beds and... More

We stayed at Gardeners Cottage and had a great weekend. The cottage is well equipped, cosy, comfortable and spacious with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom downstairs and 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom upstairs. Perfect location on the edge of Burton Bradstock with an easy and very pretty walk into the village and the Hive beach beyond.

We stayed with our five month old daughter in the Dairy Cottage for a week in early August. We couldn't have asked for a more comfortable and easy stay. Our host, Karen, was knowledgeable, helpful and kind, and the property was beautiful, in stunning surroundings. Burton Bradstock and the beach is a short walk away and the Hive Beach Cafe... More
