Friendly and helpful communication from host. Information in the property about the facilities in the cottage and in the village e.g. where to shop and eat.(Very good food in the pub) Comfortable bed and although the cottage was very small it was arranged well to eat and relax. Excellent value for money.

It was lovely, had a small private garden area for my dog which was very helpful, good kitchen facilities to be able to cook along with menu’s for local takeaways if you don’t fancy cooking. The bed is absolutely amazing to sleep on so comfy and easy to get a good night sleep and the lounge is lovely to chill out on and watch the tv. Close to a local co op and fish and chip shop and not much of a walk into town either. Great hosts and very helpful if you have any questions during your stay

Had a great choice of breakfasts. Had the cooked breakfast on our first morning which was delicious. Second morning had the continental which was good. We were able to chat with other guests and gained some useful info.about events going on locally.
Our bed was very comfortable.
Our hosts were very friendly
Our second stay at Yew Tree View, great value for money, well equipped, clean, warm, easy check in (key safe). Although compact, the kitchen has a small fridge, a two plate hob and microwave, plus plenty of utensils, pans etc so self catering is perfectly feasible - we ate in 3 nights out of 4. Marnhull is a lovely village, and the food at the Crown is great. Lots of walks nearby, fields rather muddy at the moment but that's hardly surprising given the recent rain!
We are so pleased that we found this delightful B&B which was situated in a pretty village which boasts 2 pubs with Thomas Hardy connections.
A very high standard of accommodation with a lovely garden. The hosts, Chris and Mella were helpful and informative about the area.
We enjoyed the breakfasts too. They were leisurely and set us up for the day.
We also felt that our dog was welcome and there are plenty of scenic walks nearby as well as a spacious paddock.
Fantastic b&b. So welcoming to us and our puppy. Lovely village with nice pub. Great breakfast. Beautiful garden. Would recommend to anyone visiting Dorset.
Delightful location/surroundings, comfortable room and bed, bath & shower (often only get one of these), good towels, tea making in room, tea and carrot cake welcome for us and goody bag for our dog, very good breakfasts of fruit, cereals, pastries etc. with eggs cooked to order, easy parking, pleasant village, shop and pub just round the corner, dog shower....and all presented by charming hosts.
Great find in lovely village, we were visiting family in Gillingham so this was ideal. Comfortable, well equipped, peaceful, all for the price of a budget hotel. Will definitely stay again.
The location in a small village 3 miles north of Sturminster Newton was ideal for us. It's a pretty good base for exploring places like Stourhead although that wasn't our main aim.
Guest accommodation is in a purpose-built extension. Rooms are spacious and and well-equipped.
The hosts, a couple of older ladies, were chatty and friendly but of retirement years, so I guess the business will change hands sooner or later.
