A lovely property. Well equipped and furnished. We did have a little trouble locating it when arriving as property couldn’t be seen from road until gone up drive but soon got used to where it was. The village of Sutton Pontz was lovely everything you imagine a village to be. We used the Springhead pub to eat a few times lovely food. Cottage a good place to tour the area from.

Had a lovely week here at Painters, it was like home from home. We were met by a lovely lady who was very welcoming. The cottage is well set out with everything you could need, Even a sewing kit in the kitchen drawer. No problem with Velux windows ,in fact let lots of light into the rooms also no issues at all with the closeness to the owners home as IT IS stated in the description. Ideal location for touring the area. We will definitely return to Painters Cottage Thank You

A thoroughly enjoyable stay in a very clean and well-equipped cottage set in a pleasant village. The accommodation is a half-mile walk from local shops and takeaways, with an excellent pub/restaurant much closer. Weymouth, with all of the facilities you would expect, is a 10 minute drive away. There is excellent walking from the door - both into the hills behind the village (and the Osmington White Horse), and down onto the coast path - I did a 9.5-mile circular walk including the latter, but you could easily create shorter options. The only small negatives in terms of location are the lack of a view, and the proximity to the owners' house (although they were away while I was there) which some may be less comfortable with. The property was very well presented and equipped. The nature of the building is such that there are few windows (other than Velux), which was not an issue for me but could have been during a hot spell. A chest of drawers (or shelving in one of the wardrobes) in the double bedroom would have been helpful, but as a general point there was plenty of storage space. However, those points aside, there are few improvements that I could suggest.

Painters Cottage was very well equipped and had everything we needed. The owner, who lives next door, was very friendly and helpful. A lovely week away enjoyed by all the family.

Didn t realise cottage would be so close to owners house Very small outside space Only view from patio doors and of our and owners cars and trees Mostly skylights and claustrophobic in small bedroom and too hot Dbl bedroom had a window overlooking a wall and couldn t open it because the outside was full of cobwebs and didn t want spiders coming in Possibly my own fault for not looking into it a bit more but actually booked last year and couldn t go then because of Covid

Accommodation well organised and generally well equipped. The outside seating area was extremely compact off the car parking area - pleasant enough with some planting around. Hills all around the village although no real views from either the house or accommodation. The village is picturesque with pub and tree lined river/pond at its centre, but no shops, church or anything at its heart. Good walks either into/up hills or to the coastal path.
