Have been here a couple of times now and really enjoyed our stay. Bed really comfortable, good garden for the dog to run in and lots of lovely touches like milk in the fridge, shampoo, shower gel etc.

Totally refurbished in 2021, Primrose Cottage is a beautiful listed thatched cottage. Being around 200 years old it is full of charm and character as well as little quirks. It is set amid a large pet proof private garden, which boasts a swing seat, benches, wild flower areas, outside dining, BBQ and patio. The surrounding areas are stunning countryside and forest. There are ample walks and cycling on the doorstep and a wide river in the local village for wild swimming and having fun. The house has one main large bedroom with king bed and seating area. In this room we can provide a travel cot on request. There is a stair gate for safety at top and bottom of the stairs.The spacious but cozy lounge has a double sofa bed that has a Hypnos mattress, a lovely log burner and inglenook fireplace and Smart TV with Satellite, this offers a multitude of channels. There is also games, colouring and a well stocked bookshelf. The bathroom is well equipped with bath and electric shower and separate toilet. A modern kitchen has everything you may need, cooker, fridge freezer and dishwasher. WiFi is free and super fast. There is a large sunny garden surrounded by fields. We welcome children and dogs, BUT please note the stairs are twisty so young children need to be supervised. We also welcome well behaved pets. Smoking is not permitted inside a but is allowed at safe distance from the thatch outside, this is to adhere to fire safety. At this time even more so, we are very thorough with the cleaning the cottage. Every item including furniture is sprayed with a solution. If you are to develop any viral symptoms during your stay please contact us on the numbers provided. Parking is on the premise. Please do not charge your electric vehicle as we are not insured for this and it may overload the electrical system and prove a fire hazard. We appreciate your respect on this matter. We have tried to provide a beautiful place, enjoy your stay.
Hi I am Martin, I live with my wife Tracy. Along with Primrose Cottage we have three other holiday lets. Primrose Cabin, just near you, Honeysuckle Cottage, which is a few hundred yards down the lane. and The Dairyman Suite which is a unique Band B suite at our farm just a mile away; all can be viewed on Booking site I am an artist, thoroughly inspired by the local landscape. My wife is a freelance writer and author. I grew up in the New Forest and my wife moved to Dorset when we married some 30 plus years ago. We moved to this area a decade or so ago. We enjoy the outdoors and are both very creative. We know Dorset well and have tried to provide as much information as we can for your enjoyment. We have tried to make all our properties to the standard of somewhere we would like to stay. We are blessed to live in such a beautiful county. We hope you love it as much as we do.
There is so much to see. In Moreton itself is a beautiful river with a large ford perfect for paddling, wild swimming, picnics or just relaxing, your doggies will love this spot, full of furry delights! There is a bridge across the river leading to spectacular walks through the surrounding forest, perfect for walking and bike rides. Lawrence of Arabia's grave is in Moreton, his house, Clouds Hill, now National Trust is on the outskirts of the village. The walled garden and tea rooms offer cream teas, breakfasts and lunches, there is a pet corner, plant sales and children's play park as well as lovely formal gardens and entry is free. Moreton church is a must visit with its unique window etchings. There are also a number of National Trust properties locally for you to explore, Clouds Hill, Hardy's Cottage, Maxgate, Kingston Lacy and Brownsea Island are but a few of the nearest. Thomas Hardy's Thorncombe Wood is a beautiful example of ancient woodland. The Autumn colours and bluebells are stunning. Kingston Maurwood is a great place too, for families especially. Monkey World and The Tank Museum are a 15 minute drive. The famous Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove beaches are 20 minutes away. Other close beaches are Chesil and Weymouth. Corfe Castle is dramatic with its pretty village and good dog friendly pubs.
