Isabel was especially caring to ensure our stay was as relaxing and as comfortable as possible. It is, however, a little closer to the cottage than perhaps is indicated in the pictures. The dogs were lovely but some may find their presence a touch invasive. The river also presented us with a little problem as the moist conditions are conducive to their presence! Overall though, for the price, this is a great place to spend a week. ##### john E.

The grounds were absolutely outstanding with access to the river Yarty which the kids and our dog loved. The only downside was the wi-fi connection which given where we were it wasn't surprising that the wi-fi was pretty intermittent. Ignoring that one thing the owners were super helpful and friendly and our stay was great! Definitely recommend to anyone thinking of a stay there. ##### Nicola P.

It was perfect for our needs with an excellent kitchen. The hosts, Isobel and William were incredible and very accommodating of our children who wanted to run around a lot in the gardens and in the river too as well as any anything we needed during our stay too. The lodge was clean, tidy, comfortable and ideal for our little family. Great location, close to amenities and beaches but able to come away and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Will look forward to booking here again. Thank you Isobel and William! ##### Charlotte S.

The property was lovely but, maybe a little small for 4 adults. The land this property had was amazing, plenty of it for our dogs to run around and there was a stream too which again, was ideal for our dogs. The owners (Isabel and william) were fantastic hosts, very nice people and nothing was too much trouble if you needed anything. I highly recommend this property. ##### allan b.

The Lodge has a very cosy fel to it and everything you could possibly need is provided. The surrounding garden is fantastic and the beautiful location has plenty of opportunities for short and longer walks starting from the house itself. Millers Farmshop at the end of the way also deserves an mention as it provides most things you will need and has a lot of local produce on offer as well. Last but not least, Isabel, William and the dogs made us feel very welcome and were always prepared to help if needed. We had a lovely holiday! ##### Bram C. Stayed 10 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jet B. 16 Aug 2018 #### Lovely lodge in peaceful surroundings The lodge is nicely furnished, very comfy and clean. My husband and I and our dog especially loved the large garden surrouding the Beckford lodge and Beckford cottage. We highly recommend it for 2 adults (and perhaps 2 small children), the livingroom / kitchen area is perfect for 2, but could be a bit cramped for 4. Millers Farmshop is a great store just down the road with eveything you may want as a foodie. Loved their bread! They also allow you to bring your dog on a lead into the store, which is great. Branscombe Beach and Beer were our favorite beaches in the area. ##### Jet B.

The downstairs area was smaller than we anticipated. Upstairs was nice with well equipped bedrooms with great views. The garden areas are spectacular. It is noteworthy that the roads to the property are single track with close banked hedges. Owners were welcoming along with their 2 Labradors. Overall we enjoyed our stay even if at times the weather was against us. ##### Simon G. Stayed 8 nights in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Ronald S. 11 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, communication #### Quaint and small Quite small, small sofa and two small children armchairs. Very small tv size of a decent laptop. Garden is spectactular. Two large labradors roam and will walk into the lodge so if you have a small dog this can be a bit over powering. During our stay there was a lot of building and garden activity going on so not as private an area if you just want to chill in the sun and have a glass of wine. This was a little disapointing. Lovely hosts. ##### Ronald S. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stephen R. 18 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful cottage in splendid grounds We arrived and was greeted by the hosts William and Issy. They both kindly have us a run down of the cottage and area then left us to explore the beauty of East Devon. The cottage itself was perfectly sized for us (two oldies, two kids and Moosh the dog). Private drive for the car and use of outside table. The cottage is located in a beautiful part of the Devonshire countryside. Not too far from Axminster for any supplies which may be needed. First day we walked to Axminster along the river, this took us about 1.5 hours there and an hour back. Gorgeous scenery. Second day we visited Lyme Regis. Well worth a visit. In all a thoroughly recommended place to stay. Moosh says hello! ##### Stephen R. Stayed 7 nights in May 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### elaine o., Lincolnshire 16 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in #### Peacful Cosy Lodge This lodge was wonderful and the gardens and grounds of appox 9 acres was fantasticl for our dog Dollie to romp around with the owners dogs (labs), so well laid back, as our dog can be jealous, being the only child, but she made friends of the lead and no issues. there is a river that they can play in. You do have your own small grass garden gated for dogs that can not mix. The Lodge I have to say is small and the T.V. tiny, but you do not go on hoilday to watch telly all the time. The kitchen had everything you needed and more, with a lovely stable door. The bathroom had a great power shower. The Bedrooms were lovely, but you can bump your head on the V shape ceiling, luckly I am under 5' so did not have any issues. The bed was really comfortable as well. This cottage was great for two of us and a big dog. The Lane is appox 2 miles to reach the cottage and very narrow in places, but once you reach this lodge it is great. You do not hear any road noise either. You will need a car to get around, walking on the lanes can be difficult with a dog. The owners were just great and helpful, also Ruskin and Gracey the labs. The surrouding places are Kilmtington and Axminster and Charmouth for fossiles. The small negatives do not outway the whole positives on this cottage, and we will be happy to book again. Thank you Izzy and William for a wonderful stay and we hope to come again soon. ##### elaine o.
