The cottage was beautiful. Everything you could possibly wish for. Very tastefully furnished and the most amazing kitchen. The weather was awful when we were there but helped by the cosy warm and homely atmosphere in the cottage, and very nice owners . We would love to visit again soon, maybe in better weather.

A lovely cottage in a very rural location. Very well equipped and spotlessly clean. Perfect for two and the little terrace outside is an unexpected bonus. We will certainly stay there again.

Great cottage very quiet. Situated in a pleasant lane. Some building work to be done adjacent. Nice cottage very private. A small terrace overlooked by attaching property. Very clean and spacious. Perfect for two. The only thing if possible would be a better TV and a microwave

Fabulous cottage, really comfortable and well appointed. Spotlessly clean. Very easy to find. Lovely welcome from the owners whose house is next door . Although Chard isn't the nicest town, location is ideal for anywhere in Dorset/Devon/Somerset, e.g only 12 miles to Lyme Regis. Great place to explore. Would definitely recommend this cottage

We had a lovely relaxing stay at Little Higgins. The cottage was immaculate, very cosy, comfortable and eqipped with everything. The owner was lovely too. We are still missing watching the birds, including the woodpecker at the feeding station and listening to the owls at the night We will definitely be staying again.
