Celebration Friendly Cottages

 Our cottages are perfectly situated and laid out for celebrations, be it a wedding anniversary, big birthday, school reunion or just a group get away we are ready and happy to host you.

 

Rose Cottage has a large reception/dining area which is perfect for drinks and canapes before sitting down to a group meal. The kitchen is open plan making for a very sociable cooking and preparing area.

 

In addition to the large area in Rose we have an outdoor dining area, this open sided barn provides the perfect backdrop to a large group BBQ or a big brunch. With a long table seating up to 20 guests this is the perfect place to create wonderful memories around the table with games, feasting and laughter.

 

We have a fantastic catering company run by my wonderful sisters' in law, Ella and Jess. The Passionate Pear is able to provide anything from the very fanciest of dinner parties to family supper with a menu of your choice. Please do just let them know your thoughts and they will do everything we can to make your event as stress free and fun as possible. they will lay the table, decorate the room, prepare and serve your menu, clear away the mess and leave everything spick and span so there is nothing to be done but relax and enjoy yourselves!

 

If you have a special birthday or event and would like a large celebration cake please do let them know. They are able to provide beautiful and delicious cakes to be there on your arrival or to be delivered part way through your stay.

 

We also understand that arriving somewhere new and catering for large numbers can be hard work. The Passionate Pear have therefore designed a simple menu of ‘First Night Suppers’ to welcome you on your arrival. These dishes will be left in the fridge in Rose ready to be heated up for your first night.

 

If you do not wish to be in the kitchen whilst you should be celebrating or if you would like to discuss ‘First Night Suppers’ please do enquire at and Ella and Jess will be happy to meet your requirements.

Happy guests
“'Hi Anna  - just to thank you so much for our fantastic weekend in your cottages.  We had a great time – the accommodation contained all of us + the dogs; the food on our first night was delicious; our second night which was the celebration for John’s 70th went so well with a table that could fit 20 of us and then the sitting room area where we could hold our ‘performances’ and quiz for him – many lovely memories. I love that part of Dorset – I was brought up in Salisbury with grandparents in Bournemouth and aunt, uncle, cousins in Southampton, so it all felt very familiar. We would love to come back one day – everyone thought it was great.  I’ll put something on TripAdviser. Good to meet you albeit briefly.  Hope we left everything in good order. Best wishes Ro and family'”

“An absolutely fantastic holiday property. The perfect size and layout for 18 people.   Highly recommend having an evening meal made for you by Anna. Plenty enough to go around and to a high standard. Made life so much easier!!   Everyone enjoyed their time. This place is definitely one to stay at”

“Lovely cottages, we had a brilliant holiday. You could easily have 20 adults and have plenty of space inside and out. The local pub, The Anvil was a 40 minute stroll, you could go cross country or road, decent food and the staff very proactive with Covid precautions. Cottages all clean on arrival, with Covid paperwork. Felt clean, safe and welcoming. This property is rural and on a working farm which was lovely and well kept. Lots to do locally, cider farm, brewery in Blandford, National Trust properties and lots more - really good location. I would recommend this property and hope to return. ”
