Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Lytchett Matravers

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the property was perfect in every way.

We had a fantastic time at Brookside Farm - Swallow's Return was even nicer than we'd been expecting, with stunning views across the Dorset countryside and everything we needed for a few days of rest. The place was easy to find with the directions provided and we were given a very warm and friendly welcome by Charlotte, Jonni, Stanley and Maurice. They left plenty of local tips and suggestions for us in the apartment, which we made use of. The highlights for us were being given the chance to feed and learn more about their beautiful alpacas, eating out on the terrace in the evening at sunset and enjoying the sound of the brook that runs along the bottom of the farm. If you're looking to disconnect for a few days in a beautiful place surrounded by nature, we'd recommend it in a heartbeat.

We are home after a Mon- Fri half term break at Admiral’s Watch, and we have had a wonderful time. Before we arrived we had clear directions from Nicky along with a really helpful list of recommendations for places to go with the kids. Getting to the property was easy and it was great to have a dedicated parking spot. The area is peaceful and completely beautiful. The small precinct of shops/ restaurants within the terrace was useful and didn’t intrude on our stay at all. The property itself is beautiful and just like the photos- the sea is right in front of the apartment making the views amazing. Nicky has styled the property beautifully and there was plenty of space for us as a family of four plus our dog. Activity wise I would recommend a trip to nearby Hurst Castle, and a meal at the Cliff House restaurant which was a short stroll away. Totally recommended, we had a great stay. Thank you Nicky and Ed.

Three of us and the dog stayed at David’s cottage and we had a wonderful time. The place was spotless when we entered, it was everything we needed. David was very communicative and helpful. We spent a lot of time in the garden as luckily the weather was in our favour and it was fenced in so the dog could run around with furniture for us to use. The cottage is in a perfect location, off of the main road so it was quiet and peaceful and just down the road from the sandbanks which we visited frequently. I highly recommend anyone interested in staying here I haven’t got a single fault! :)

You must stay here! It was beautiful. Clean, tidy, everything you needed. The host and house manager went above and beyond for us. We can’t wait to come back!

We have just returned from the most amazing week staying at the bolt hole. The house and location were just perfect and exactly what we needed for our two young energetic boys and dog. We spent plenty of time in the stunning garden and relaxing in the hot tub. Thank you so much Claire and Buster for making us feel so welcome and especially for allowing us to meet all of the animals. Freddie and Bertie will keep these memories for life and they are already missing playing with the dogs ( especially Fred ) and saying hello to Bernard every morning through the gate. We will definitely be back to stay again in the future.

This property is set in a lovely quiet scenic area. It was just what we wanted, very clean and well laid out, the only challenge we had, being 4 over 70's, was the bathroom being downstairs. To get it upstairs would ruin the place, so we got over it. Chloe. our contact was very amenable when we got there very early easy to contact. Everything worked well, we had brought a frozen tagine for dinner and found all the kit needed to enjoy our feast. The beds were comfortable with plenty of room in the bedrooms to allow us to spread out. The lounge and dining rooms both suited us well, enough room to sit comfortably. Overall, we would recommend this to anyone, as long as they happy to live in a really quiet area.

Linda's cottage is beautiful, stunning views of the country side, lovely garden. Really everything we expected and was a perfect place to stay as we were attending a wedding in Sixpenny Handley. Linda herself is so kind, so welcoming and so informative of the area.

A lovely place that’s great for being cozy and romantic. Hot tub and a BBQ are a must 😄

Great place to stay, very clean & tidy with everything we needed. Bread, milk, eggs, tea & coffee all provided and jams/butter in fridge. Nice to have small private outside space. Lovely surroundings on well maintained site with plenty of activities for all ages. Would definitely recommend and would return. Accommodation close enough to amenities for youngsters to walk to but far enough away to not be disturbed. Hosts very responsive to messages. Many thanks Roxanne & Louise

We hired this for a few days with family to celebrate my nans 70th birthday. Absolutely beautiful house and gardens and the facilities are amazing. We live locally so knew about the area but loved having a swimming pool, tennis courts and snooker table for all of us to enjoy. The lounge was bigger than we thought and comfortably sat all of us. We also received a helpful guide a few days before our stay which gave us all the information we needed. Overall a really lovely stay, thank you!

Stayed here for my 50th birthday for a girly weekend away. Beautiful little cottage with beautiful gardens surrounding the property. 5 star hosts. Very friendly and very informative. Obvious how much they love what they do. We had great fun in the games room. And the hot tub was a lovely treat and a well needed relaxation after we walked into Burley village and back. The food hamper was amazing with everything we needed or could want. Local supermarket not far away either. Lovely gift 🎁 from the hosts on arrival a bottle of wine and box of choccies. Yummy. Thank you very much. And finally getting to cuddle a 9 week old Bengal kitten who belonged to our hosts has to be the highlight of our weekend. He was beautiful and we nicknamed him Burley. Wish I could have taken him home. Highly recommend this beautiful little cottage and its amazing hosts. Thank you ladies I had an awesome 50th birthday 🎈 xxx

We've just returned from another wonderful stay at this property in Long Sutton. As returning guests, we were delighted to find it just as perfect as we remembered. The location is stunning, offering peace and tranquility, and the property itself is immaculate. This time, we particularly enjoyed the pool and sauna – a real treat! We can't wait to return. Many thanks to George and Gill for the amazing hospitality.

Jo and Andrew were great host. Always there when we needed them but left us to get on with things. Such a beautiful location and the pool was so much fun. Kids had an absolute blast. Near shops, beach and Bournemouth town centre but so nice to head back for our private oasis each day. Would definitely stay again

beautiful swimming pool!! thank you so much for letting us enjoy it. xx

Loved our stay at the Cottage. Was an ideal location to spend a week exploring beautiful Dorset. Some great local walks and lots of places to visit a short drive away. The cottage was well equipped with everything we needed, cozy and comfortable for two of us and our dog. Highly recommended if you’re planning to visit this area.

What a lovely surprise for we history buffs to find ourselves in an historic church and graveyard. Once inside, delighted at the little touches on theme, eg welcome goodies greatly appreciated. On our long trip, the most comfortable beds and pillows yet. Also compared to many AirBNBs, Gordon’s place had good kitchen facilities eg plenty of cups, plates and cutlery etc.

Absolutely lovely and will definitely visit this apartment again. Thanks

Such a beautiful cottage in the most incredible setting. There are plenty of incredible walks on your doorstep, Charlotte also provided lots of helpful recommendations. We were made to feel very welcome, and the finishing touches really made us feel at home. We would definitely stay here again, highly recommend it!

Our stay at Rowena’s property was a perfect first getaway with our 2 month old and our dog. She was really responsive with our questions about the travel cot as well as giving us recommendations for local walks. The property is in a great location, a short walk to the centre of Lyndhurst for food and coffee. Also a great central location to get out and about in the new forest with the baby and the dog. Would definitely recommend.

Thank you for hosting us and our dog Kevin. We all really enjoyed our stay and everything was as described. Beautiful location and amazing walks on the doorstep. Just make sure you bring an eye mask and ear plugs as the light comes in and the peacock wakes up at sunrise! Will return if in the area again :)

Wonderful little bungalow within easy access of many beautiful places. Poole Park with soft play and playground, Sandbanks and Studland beaches. Andrew and Armie are responsive, friendly and pro-active hosts. Our second time visiting and will certainly be back.

Such a lovely area. Lovely views of hills. Small but perfectly formed space with a lot of bits left like ground coffee, spices etc. Very comfortable bed. Lovely and warm. Thank you!
