Tastefully furnished and almost everything you'd need for a home away from home.
Location was amazing being so close to the beach and loved the sea view from our bedroom. Great to have reserved, secure parking too. Was clean and different floors and the outside patio gave us space from each other which we needed for a longer stay! There was a nice welcome basket which included Dorset apple cake which was delicious! We holidayed for 2 weeks and things that you don't think of too much for a week started to niggle on our 2nd week. Beds were comfy but the duvets were 10 tog which were far too hot for summer and just using the cover was sometimes too cold, so summer duvets needed. The lounge TV was painful to use as as the remote slow and unresponsive, and it had limited functionality. When you've got younger kids, you will spend a fair amount of time in your holiday home and not having a decent TV with the ability to download streaming apps that we use like Disney was a faff. The upstairs Fire TV could do that but only if you have a prime account, which we do but it often just wouldn't work properly as Fire devices are prone to do. Also whilst we brought our own consumables like dishwasher tabs etc we hadn't expected to need bin liners for week 2. If you're staying for a week then none of this should bother much! A couple of extra notes to include that aren't written but good to know: The pebble beach has a steep bank to the shore line and a very short promenade so if you want to take a long walk, would advise wearing hiking boots. Nice cafe on the beach which sometimes hosts lovely evening pop up evening restaurants - check their Facebook page for more details.

We stayed at Kimberlin for a week over the Easter period, as a base for attending an event at the nearby Sailing Academy.
The location is perfect for that purpose - walking in about 20 minutes or a very quick drive. It's proximity to Chesil Beach is a great feature, and there are direct sea views from the top front bedroom. The house was spotlessly clean on arrival, and is well furnished with comfortable beds and sofas etc. We really enjoyed our stay, but there are a couple of points worth noting - these are factual rather than critical - there's nothing that the owners could do to address them! The development is a couple of years at most (probably less) and, as is the way the developers, they have crammed as many properties in a small space as they possibly could, so despite being a three bedroom property, the living areas (kitchen/living room) feel very cramped. We were two adults plus two late teenage children - and moving around the kitchen/dining table is "cosy" to say the least. There is only room for four chairs around the dining table (not sure what happens if 6 people book?), and you can't open the fridge/freezer doors fully without first closing the kitchen door. Over a week this did start to irritate. Likewise the on-site parking. The spaces are very tight for larger cars, and despite being clearly marked, guests/owners of other properties seemed to regard them as a free for all. We had to leave a note on a car to ask them to move so that we could use the allocated space for Kimberlin. There is parking right opposite development and at quiet times there are spaces - but in busy season that's not the case and we had to park some distance away.

The cottage delights and the photos are representative on first arrival.
Lovely beamed living room with woodburner, well equipped kitchen etc. Stairs to top room are steep. (Very common in Portland cottages) We were a little disappointed in the cleanliness when we arrived. We could see that the cleaner had vacuumed and cleaned surfaces, made bed all fine, however it was obvious that a spring clean is well overdue. Lots of cobwebs, furniture had not been moved to clean so very dusty in these places. (eg behind TV), cobwebs on books on bookshelf, and a Christmas Tree left under the bed covered in dust. We had to clean the windows ourselves in order to be able to see out! On the plus side the cottage is warm (it was quite cold outside for the time of year) , beds are comfortable, TV good. There is no oven glove which is tricky using the oven. There is no mobile signal and no wifi available. (sometimes sporadic at front of house eg BT Broadband). The location is excellent for the Chesil Beach, Quiddles Cafe which is lovely , and the unique Cove House Inn. Both of these a short walk and Dog friendly. There is no sea view from the cottage, only the back of the sea defence wall. Parking can be a nightmare. Our group had two cars. We found that parking in the afternoon was usually OK, but come back in the evening and often very difficult to find any space near the cottage. Cottage well served by public transport, bus stop, regular services just metres away.

Cottage in a fab location and parking a bonus.
Hairs in the bedroom drawers and have to say that the sofa had a dirty smell so we bought some fabreeze to try and make the room smell nicer . When we got home we realised we had left my dogâs grooming stuff in one of the kitchen cupboards, when we rang nothing had been handed in but we were also told that chances were that the cupboard may not have been checked??!! Surely all cupboards should be checked and given a wipe over? The most annoying thing , which is an issue with dream cottages, is that a day before we were due to arrive I read the review about bees in the garden. We had specifically booked this place as it had an outside area to sit in. I contacted Dream Cottages by online chat , told my concerns- travelling with a dog and my elderly parents & I felt we should have been told of this issue( thank goodness none of us suffers from anaphylaxis ) I have to say that we didnât see the swarms of bees mentioned by a previous review but could see a steady stream of bees going to one area of the wall in particular ( into a pipe) So , we didnât use the outside space at all and didnât let our dog go out either . Kept the windows shut and made use of the fans. Iâm annoyed that I requested that someone from Dream Cottages should contact me and no one has. Not the owners fault but badly managed by Dream Cottages and poor communication.

This is the second year we have stayed at your lovely property.
The accommodation is ideal as so close to the harbour/beach and surrounding areas. Having a reserved parking space is a real bonus. This year the light in the bathroom, flickered throughout the stay. One night around 23.30hrs there was a very loud vibrating noise right across the apartment which seemed to stem from the bathroom ceiling the bathroom tap/fan was being used at the time. It did not stop for some time and not until the fan stopped. The whole block must have heard it. The towels provided were obviously new with is great but led to the towels fabric rubbing off and covering us and clothes etc. I had to wash and dry them before we could continue to use them. I did report the noise/light in the apartment. We were asked if it was ok for maintenance to attend whilst we were out, we were not asked to leave our keys so presumed they had their own set? I am unsure if they attended but if they did they left the relevant key code on the box without disguising it. The light was still problematic when we left and the noise settled but could still be heard from the adjoining ground floor flat. I would recommend Brewer's Retreat to any one, apart from the maintenance issue we had a great stay. Thank you
