“We had a great time last August, and have just rebooked for next time. Lovely people, very helpful. Booking process was simple, and we LOVED the house”
“Had a great school reunion with 15 friends a few weekends ago at Skyfall (Starfall) which was well stocked for that many people with a great decor combining the old and the new! Easily big enough for the 16 of us, with a hot tub to unwind in the evening. Great walks straight from the barn! Would stay again!”
“The most beautiful house and grounds. Children and adults loved the space and games room . An open fire every night was the perfect end to the days .”
“We loved our stay with Country Holiday House. We had a large group of 15 and the house suited us perfectly, where we were able to all pitch in around the kitchen table for breakfast and adjourn to a more formal setting for dinner in the converted barn’s library.”
“We had a wonderful time at The Old Manor. There was a large group of us and the house accommodated us all perfectly. I would absolutely recommend staying here.”
“we had a fabulous time at the Old Manor House in Almer, Blandford Forum. The house was well furnished and equipped with everything you could possibly want. The games room too! We hope to be revisiting in the future and so are our friends.”
“Stayed here for a birthday weekend away with a group of friends and the property alone made it an unforgettable experience. The overall atmosphere of the house was incredibly welcoming and comfortable, with every amenity we could ever need. I’m left scratching my head at how somewhere so amazing can come with such a great price?! This property is an absolute must to any one who wants to stay in the Bath/Bristol area!”
“Recently stayed in this lovely cottage for a weekend away with some friends to celebrate a birthday. Could not be more impressed with the property, the location is perfect being in easy driving distance to both Bath and Bristol while still being secluded such that no noises can be heard by any other nearby properties and vice versa. Lots of great amenities as well such as the fantastic hot tub which was an absolutely wonderful surprise on arrival after a long week of work in the city!”
“Amazing house!!
the house was spotless on arrival and was great for a large group. It had everything we needed and the host was really helpful throughout our stay - would definitely stay again!!”
“We could not have wished for a more fabulous stay with countryholidayhouse! In the up run to our stay in the beautiful Skyfall, Sarah could not have been more attentive to our needs when we made last minute changes to our booking. Upon arrival, the house was beautifully prepared for us being completely spotless, the hot tub preheated and the beds were of the standard of a 5* hotel! The house itself could not be more perfect for a big group to stay in and it never ever felt like a squeeze. Stunning facilities and a feeling of being completely remote despite being so near to the town centre of bath. Transport to and from the town centre was very easy and we never struggled to find Ubers that would roughly cost £7 to get to town. After an extensive search of both Bath and Bristol, this was bar far the best value property we could find. When we arrived we were expecting there to be a catch but we never found one. The house is just as amazing as it looks in the photos and the price is simply unbelievable. Could not recommend more highly as a weekend for a group of young professionals, we left London at 6 and were in the hot tub by 8 :) We celebrated two birthdays whilst there and we couldn't think of a better place to celebrate. Thanks so much for making this possible!”

“Canford Dairy - he house certainly did not disappoint and was a perfect base for our family for the 5 days. We all had a fabulous time and would recommend the venue to our friends, so thank you.”
“Beautiful Compton Nest was the ideal venue for our annual gathering of four generations - new-borns to 90. The bedrooms are all beautiful and so comfortable and the kitchen is well-equipped and welcoming. A totally peaceful location yet just a couple of miles from the town of Shaftesbury. Throw in a hot tub for good measure and things don't get much better!”
“We had a fantastic stay at Canford Dairy. A well appointed and equipped house with an awesome swimming pool.
Great weather, great company and a great location for a team event.
would recommend.”

“Our stay at the old Manor was excellent. The house was a good space for a group of 17 and had great character. There was plenty of room for us all with space to spare. The surrounding area is lovely and garden provided a great place for us all to hang out and relax. The owner Sarah was easy to get hold of and quick to reply to my emails. I would recommend the old manor for all groups regardless of size and age range.”
“I stayed at The Old Manor with a large group of my friends in aid of the completion of our ALevel examinations in August 2018. The house was absolutely beautiful, oozing with character and comfort complemented by the serene grounds surrounding it and the modern touch of the hot tub. Sarah, the owner, was lovely, and was merely a phone call away if we had any problems (which we didn’t). I would recommend this property to all ages, wishing to escape from the hustle and bustle of every day life.”
“The reviews below are very confusing. We stayed at the Old Manor last week to celebrate leaving school and had a great week away. The house was clean and exactly like the pictures which is rare to find. Sarah was very friendly and attentive with our questions. Would definitely recommend this house for anyone considering some time away with friends and family in a quiet environment”
