Amazing weekend
A 5 star review and a lovely guest book comment from Kay who stayed in our lovely Osmund House in January 2026.
Had a great weekend for my Dad’s 80th birthday. 12 of us, aged 13 – 80 and 1 dog. Lots of space for us all. Had 2 big meals in the large dining room and enjoyed the hot tub! It was walkable into the centre of Salisbury and the train station. Many Thanks

Blackdown Views with Shepherds Hut Sleeps 14
Absolutely loved the property and the setting
Thank you for your absolutely wonderful review for your stay at Blackdown Views Paul. We really appreciate it.
Fantastic property and hosts!
We absolutely loved the property and the setting. The hot tub was a hit with everyone and there was nothing that hadn’t been considered for a large group, with loads of cutlery, crockery, two cafetières, all the cooking equipment you’d need and more. Any issues we had, our hosts were only too happy to help. Location is close to Honiton with good access to coastal towns like Lyme and Sidmouth within 40 mins. Oh and despite the quite remote location, WiFi was great.
Mews Hill with Glamping Hut Sleeps 13
5 star review for a Boardgaming weekend
The beauty of our properties is that they can accommodate large groups. This is usually for special celebrations but also for group activites such as boardgaming for our guests who stayed in our New Forest Cottages in February 2026 and who gave us a 5 star review.

We rented Mews Hill and Criddlestyle Cottage for a boardgaming weekend. Everyone said their beds were comfortable. There was plenty of room for us all. Lots of bathrooms and space. The oven takes a while to cook, but you get use to it. We will be returning with our dog
