Poacher's Cottage

Poachers Cottage in Buckland Newton is an absolute gem. One of four it is nestled in the beautiful Dorset countryside. The former farm workers cottage is marvellous, so comfortable & perfect for our stay. Beautifully decorated with everything a guest could possibly want for a first class stay away from home. The cottage is surrounded by the most fabulous gardens. They are stunning covering a large area with many surprises around every corner. A gardeners delight! Adele & Nigel are very welcoming, kind & thoughtful. We will definitely return in the future. Thank you so much.

Poacher's Cottage is a beautiful place to stay. The cottage was immaculate and spotlessly clean with everything that you would need for a stay away from home. The gardens are beautiful and in a very peaceful setting. We went to the pub a couple of minutes' walk away one evening which serves lovely food and is very convenient to the cottage. Adele and Nigel were really friendly and welcoming and left us eggs, milk, butter, bread and a homemade cake which was really appreciated. Thank you both very much for a lovely stay and hope to come back soon!

We had a wonderful time here! The cottage was perfect for what we needed and the hosts were outstanding with lots of little extras that really made this stay special. The garden was brilliant for our Easter egg trail and the secret gate to the local pub was fab. We would(and have) recommend this for a wonderful little getaway for a family!

Poacher's Cottage is an ideal place to relax and unwind. It is in a peaceful location but close enough to many points of interest in beautiful Dorset. Both the cottage and garden are very well looked after with everything you need for a comfortable stay. We enjoyed walking in the garden and the local village walk. Adele and Nigel are very welcoming and Adele made us a very delicious lemon drizzle cake. We would love to come again.

Poachers cottage is warm, super cosy and spotlessly clean, equipped with everything you could possibly need for a really comfortable and relaxing stay. Our children loved the twin room and basket of toys kindly supplied by Adele as well as the fantastic garden, climbing frame and swings. We enjoyed relaxing on the comfortable sofas by the log burner in the evenings. Thank you for a fantastic few days, we will definitely be back!!

If you like hosts that are there for you and enjoy making your stay as comfortable and memorable as possible then you could not ask for better than Adele and Nigel. They love sharing the produce from their beautifully stocked kitchen garden and you can spend endless hours just exploring the thoughtfully landscaped gardens or take a leisurely walk in the beautiful Dorset countryside.
