Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Good location and good value
This property exceeded what I was expecting. We found it to be spacious and well equipped and a good location for exploring the Bridport area. Although there is no parking at the property it was easy to find parking very close by at a cost of £2 per day. The centre of Bridport with its pubs and restaurants is literally minutes away and we used it as a base to walk to the coast at West Bay, Eype and further afield.
The description makes it clear that there is no outside space so this wasn’t a problem for us. We found it good value and would definitely consider staying again.

The cottage is situated fairly close to the centre of Bridport, within walking distance of the shops
The cottage is situated fairly close to the centre of Bridport, within walking distance of the shops. It is situated along an alley beside a butchers shop, which was really handy to pop to when buying meat. They also do delicious scotch eggs and sausage rolls. The downside is there is no parking for the cottage, although we were able to pull up onto the street outside to unload and load up. Parking is in a car park near by which you pay for, or in nearby streets. The alley is quite narrow, which means that the lounge/kitchen/dinner is quite dark. We found we needed the lights on all the time in that room. Having said that, the cottage was very cosy and the kitchen was quite well equipped. In our opinion, the microwave oven could do with being replaced. Paint is flaking off on the inside and round the edge, and the exposed metal is rusting. It also seems to be impregnated with a strong curry smell! I washed it out, but it made no difference. A big plus point for me was the bath - always very welcome after a long walk. The dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer were also very welcome. Be aware that due to covid regs, loads of things have been removed from the cottage, including brochures and maps for the local area, the instructions for the heating, and the hairdryer, which I discovered when I realised I had forgotten mine! I worked the heating out by trial and error, but it might be helpful to laminate the instructions so they can be cleaned, and leave them pinned to the notice board.

Situated down alleyway off main street of Bridport.
Situated down alleyway off main street of Bridport. No car parking but car park 100 yards away.
Modern decor, all amenities - dishwasher, fridge freezer, washing machine and dryer. Gas cooker, have to beware that when the grill on the knobs get dangerously hot.
TV in lounge & bedroom. Free WiFi. Would benefit from a king size bed rather than a small double. Overall very pleasant.

Cosy winter retreat
The house was perfect for a short break in winter as it was near to the high street and within easy reach of good restaurants and pubs, so no driving miles in the dark.
The house has no views from the windows and no outside space at all, but this did not matter in December. The property is comfortable and well-equipped and we liked the open plan layout downstairs.
