Alpaca Cottage is comfortable, cosy and had everything we needed for a lovely stay. The location is peaceful and relaxing, with good access to lots of things to see and do across Dorset. Great location for both the coast and countryside. We loved the outlook across the field of alpacas. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend Alpaca Cottage.

Great place to stay with the added benefits of lovely owners, alpacas and Jaguars! Well equipped, the only thing missing was a tea-strainer to go with the teapot (some of us still use leaf tea). We were there when there was some of the most torrential rain fell and had to drive through a swollen river to get out but that just added to the adventure and there was nothing that Paul or Fiona could have done to change that. We thought it was was a great holiday cottage and thoroughly enjoyed our stay

Cottage was a delight and we loved every minute of our stay. Beautifully scenic, fantastic hosts and friendly pet chickens! The Alpacas were wonderful too. Great base to explore Dorset by car and the cottage had almost everything you could wish for. Peace & quiet in abundance, warm and cosy feel with mod cons covered. Wonderful stay, would love to go back again!

Alpaca cottage is a lovely little cottage with nice views over the gardens and fields beyond. Well situated if you want to explore Dorset, but is in a nice quiet hamlet next to Frampton. The cottage had nice decor and good facilities and a surprisingly spacious bathroom given it is a 1 bed property. The owner Paul is really friendly and full of helpful advice, recommendations and tips on places to go whether good or bad weather and restaurants and pubs. Lots of good walking routes from the cottage which was great for the morning walk with the dog. The alpacas, dogs and chickens add to the character of the place and are all very cute!

Excellent, jane, Paul and Fiona were excellent hosts, were there if you needed anything but even though their cottage was very close it did not interfere with our privacy. Very peaceful, interesting with the Alpaca in the field, chickens who visited frequently and all together a superb cottage stay. Ken &Sue.

One of the best cottages we have ever visited. Paul and Fiona are very welcoming hosts, as are the chickens, dogs and alpacas, and clearly a lot of thought has gone into equipping the cottage. The view over parkland is wonderful, and the central location is within an easy drive of just about anywhere in Dorset.

Delightful cottage for 2 plus dog, very comfortable and well equipped, just a little challenging for headspace around the kitchen area if you are tall, friendly and helpful hosts sharing local walking routes and knowledge. Would recommend and stay again.

We had a lovely three nights at Alpaca Cottage. The outlook is wonderful, with or without alpacas (although they were rather enchanting) and the local walks recommended by the owners were an ideal way of ending the day. It's very convenient for the Jurassic coast and the Dorset coastal path, Lulworth Cove, Durdle Door, Lyme Regis; we were lucky with the weather and had three excellent days of walking. It was always a pleasure to get back to Frampton and to Alpaca Cottage in the afternoon - it was warm and comfortable and we slept very well. As well as alpacas there are three chickens (who were generous with their eggs) and two small black spaniels (who danced around us as our car arrived) - there's a nicely inclusive atmosphere.

Alpaca Cottage was a delightful comfortable cottage in a beautiful and peaceful setting. The owner was very helpful, giving advice on places to go and the best routes to take. A very relaxing short break.

easy to book, comprehensive emails with good directions. Contact numbers for the owners made everything easy Cottage was perfect for a couple, newly decorated and fitted out to a high standard. It had everything you would need for a week away from home. Located in a small village but only a few miles from Dorchester and the Jurassic Coast. Hosts were friendly and helpful without being intrusive and keen to share information on the local area with ideas on eating places, walks and driving routes. The hosts had friendly dogs, classic Jaguars and Alpacas!!! we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this cottage

Booking was easy, the cottage and the Alcapa’s were lovely! Really enjoyed the stay and the view! What a cottage for a surprise birthday break away! It’s position looking out across the fields and watching the Alpaca’s was amazing, it’s extremely well positioned to explore the area with some nice dog friendly pubs located close by, the owners were brilliant on hand to give some advice for exploring, and happy to talk Alapca’s! The folder in the cottage gives some excellent turn by turn driving routes to see some amazing sights, but it’s easy to miss a turning while looking out at the scenary. The cottage itself has everything you need, comfy bed, nice shower, and somewhere to chill out after all the exploring. My only complaint was the owners didn’t let me take little Eric the Alpaca home :)

Everything as you would want. Everything about Alpaca is beautiful and the owners are delightful. The only issue we had was that the cottage really is an annexe and should probably be described as such. To have a normal internal door as a connecting door and be able to hear very clearly a dinner party taking place next door was not what we were expecting. To also be very much part of the coming and going of the owners friends for dinner was not the fully relaxing experience we had hoped for. That said everything was beautiful and the location delightful. Feel bad about sounding disappointed but feel the the reservations should be made clear.

Absolutely lovely, very peaceful location, the cottage was beautiful, just enough for the two of us, the owners Paul and Fiona were very helpful giving us advice on where to visit, just a pity the weather didn’t play ball we could have done with more sunshine but can’t be helped, would definitely return, the alpacas are the most tranquil animals I have ever seen, and the dogs Sophi and Guiness the two most bouncy dogs I have ever met, thank you both.

Beautiful cottages displayed on an easy to use website. Polite staff when I had to call to arrange ferry crossing to IOW Beautiful cottage in a lovely part of the world. Owners were very hospitable and full of knowledge for the area. Nothing to dislike , very comfortable and clean. Added bonus of watching the Alpacas being sheered. Will definitely recommend this lovely find, thank you.
