Beautiful little cottage!

Owners were very kind and put breakfast ready in our own fridge/ kitchen (we were in Dairy Cottage, the smaller of the 2 self-catering units)as we were leaving early the next day. Breakfast was very impressive! They were also very helpful with advice on the area. Be advised to pre-book Sunday lunch (owners will recommend somewhere) as everywhere was full!

Just wonderful, really relaxing and comfortable. Annie and John made us feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble. We particularly liked meeting the wonderful animals that share their life with them.

Stayed in the summer house - it was beautiful, loved the chickens! Breakfast was fab, countryside beautiful. Accommodation perfect, light and airy. Our only suggestion is: my husband has mobility issues and needs a walk in shower.... The bathroom and shower is in keeping with the rest of the accommodation - the shower although is walk in but there are a couple of steps up and it felt quite precarious for him to get in and out - so he was not able to use. You could make this perhaps more clear. But otherwise a clear 10 out of 10.

A cosy Dorset hideaway

We had a wonderfully relaxed New Year's Eve in the Summer House at Munden House. The wooden cabin is cosy & comfortable with everything you need. We lost WiFi for a while at what point but what do you expect in the countryside! The little welcoming touches and the lovely breakfast really made this trip special.

This cottage is everything that you want out of an English Countryside Cottage fantasy. Lovely little pond, chickens running around, lots of privacy, delicious breakfast options, lovely hostess. I could have happily spent a week or more relaxing here. Top notch accommodations.

Peaceful beautifully furnished cottage

Munden House did not disappoint us. In a beautiful, peaceful location. The cottage is beautiful, light, spacious and tastefully decorated and furnished. The upstairs bedroom and bathroom were gorgeous, with a comfortable king size bed, with nice bed linen and feather pillows. An ensuite bathroom with light modern fittings complimented everything else perfectly.

Happy guest in Dorsett.

Family trip to Dorsett was really beneficial.our host was great and the kids loved the friendly animals at the property. I couldn’t recommend this host more highly.Only wished I had stayed another day. Book this B and B with confidence if you wish quiet and private experience.

Wonderful place

We stayed in the Dairy Cottage with our 2 dogs, a gorgeous self contained cottage with kitchen/dining area, sitting room, bedroom and small bathroom. Absolutely gorgeous, lovely decor, cosy and quaint. Owners were lovely and contacted me a couple of times to confirm details (dogs) and make sure we could access the property if they were not in. Fridge contained milk and breakfast to make your own. Gorgeous gardens to sit in (with cats and chickens roaming), the bedroom was quite small but the rest of the property had loads of space, nice location with shops just down the road. Nice walks into Sherbourne across a deer park, what a lovely place to stay.No recption on phones but the wifi was good.

Gorgeous country retreat

Our weekend was set for some truffle hunting and we chose Munden House as our base. We were given the Dairy cottage which was warm and cute. Although we didn't make as much use of the place as we'd like to have, it was wonderfully cosy. The bedding was perfect for a luxury sleep. And the couple that run the hotel are charming and delightful to chat to. Highly recommended.

Perfect B & B with your own little cottage

Delightful b & b - we had our own small but perfectly adequate cottage for 1 night while we visited family in Sherborne. Really lovely breakfast with home made granola and eggs fresh from their own hens. Would totally recommend and will visit again.
