The cottage was meticulously clean and well presented, and generosity of "welcome food", firewood, bath robes, cleaning products etc, all so much appreciated. It really did feel like you were putting our pleasure and satisfaction at the forefront of your business. My middle son (12) said: "that was probably one of the best family holidays ever!" and we did have pretty awful weather! So a huge thankyou to all at the estate. Your cleaners are first-class, and Ruth a lovely, courteous and efficient go-between.

The Old Post Office is a lovely place to stay - warm, cosy and well appointed- perfect for our family .. two standard poodles - Rusty and Casper .
We had a fantastic time- Wendy and Ruth are so kind making sure that you have a really lovely holiday.
We did - I have reservations about writing such a glowing report .... it gets more difficult to book ;)

A fabulous property and good value for 2012. Prices for 2013 are too high though and have taken this particular venue over our budget.
Had an issue with a blocked shower drain that backed up into the bath. A quick phone call to the house keeper yielded an excellent response on Boxing Day and things where then fine.
It's a lovely property, very quiet with a real fire to the lounge and and a wood burner in the kitchen diner. Logs supplied could have been drier though, they hissed a lot! Bought a supply locally which burned much better and allowed us to use the supply provided without putting the fire out ;-)
Local pub very good too and only a short walk from the property. Village also has a useful circular walk to help with getting rid of the excesses of Christmas. Oh, and well decorated real Christmas tree provided too!

We stayed at the old post office for 3 nights and we all said we never wanted to leave. The cottage is done to a very high standard and the quality of the towels, beds and bed linen was what you find in a 5* hotel. We were all amazed at how well stocked the kitchen was, it had everything you need plus more! The rest of the cottage was also equally well stocked with hair dryers, washing machine, tumble dryer, ironing board everything you want for a self catering holiday! The shower was also very good! I really could not fault the service, location or the cottage in anyway and we all hope to be back soon. Thank you Symondsbury Holidays!

We really liked the "Old Post Office" . We stay a lot in holiday cottages and tend to go slightly out of the main season so that we can get somewhere a little larger and more comfortable than the tiny places sometimes on offer for two. This really was quite a lot larger but the sitting and kitchen/ dining area were perfect as we do like to cook sometimes as well as eat out. The cottage was very well equipped, very clean, and the welcome phone contact proactive and attentive ( very unusual). We really liked the fact that it was so close to Bridport yet in a very quiet village. It is close to good restaurants and lovely shops. We enjoyed the local community...even went to the garden party in the house next door! Can thoroughly recommend The Old Post office and will definitely be back in Symondsbury.
