Located in Dorchester, in a historic building, 30 km from Monkey World, Gamekeeper's Cottage is a holiday home with a seasonal outdoor swimming pool and garden. This property offers access to a patio, free private parking and free WiFi. The property provides a children's playground and outdoor furniture.

The owners have really made an effort to make the cottage as cosy and welcoming as possible. They are on site and available without being intrusive. Everything was quality and tasteful - excellent night's sleep. We were snug even in a cold, wet March (lots of details like warm throws) without using the wood burning stove; it would have been very toasty warm if we had. Gardens are beautifully kept with flowers, trees and wildlife to admire from the kitchen window. Thoughtful touches like bread, milk and butter when we arrived.

    Room was spacious with a luxurious feel to it. The large shower was great. The accommodation overlooks the river and the large balcony makes full use of the views. The breakfast was plentiful and tasty, delivered by Nikki to the room. It was great to have breakfast on the balcony taking in the views of the countryside. Nice easy walk across the field to the village pub where we had a nice evening meal. Hosts were fantastic and we wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.
