Had a lovely night here with my partner, who joined me for several days as I was walking the SW Coast Path. A perfect location for that and a quite unexpectedly interesting and charming location (both the village and B&B). Our hostess was great and the cooked breakfast was lovely. Really enjoyed meeting the owner's geese and hens in the long house farmyard and seeing the Shetland pony in its stable. Having breakfast on a communal table was a plus as we shared our experiences walking the path. The mattress on the bed was firm, which was good for us.

Others have referenced the steep stairs, which did not trouble us. The 'quirky' features were genuine and memorable. Individual styling to the max and we will remember it fondly.

We love the village of Abbotsbury , know it well & visit the Swans & Sub tropical garden whenever we are in the area . Lovely hosts & hosts daughter was amazing with preparing breakfasts / cleaning rooms before going to the yard next door for her “ own job”, well done her 😊

All very lovely , quirky dining area with many old English features . Maybe access to the beautiful garden as when the weather is fab and longer evenings would be nice to sit out .

A very friendly welcome. It felt as if we were staying as a guest in someone's home rather than in a B&B. We were warned not to worry if we heard noises in the night as it was likely to be the horse sleeping in the stable adjoining our room! Good, freshly cooked breakfast. Abbotsbury is a beautiful village, and East Farm House is well located in it - across the road from the excellent Swan Inn. The Swannery is definitely worth a visit.

Acknowledging this is someone's long-standing family home, the rooms were all rather cluttered, with pictures, knick-knacks, books and memorabilia. This will be charming to some (as it was to us) but could be a bit off-putting for others.

We had a wonderful stay - Wendy could not have been more hospitable. She let us check-in very early (we were on our way to a wedding with a 1pm start), and cooked us a fantastic breakfast in the morning, with excellent coffee. The room was very sweet - comfortable bed and a good shower, with lots of storage had we needed. It's a very pretty old house on a quiet road, just off the main road with off-street parking. The village is very picturesque.

The cooked breakfast was perfectly adequate and very well cooked with good, tasty ingredients. My friend and I had very comfortable beds and an enjoyable one-night stay. We slept like logs! The lady owner and her daughter were very friendly.

We had no complaints but it is a rather quirky place and may not suit everyone's taste. The stairs to the bedrooms are fairly steep so may not be possible for those with mobility issues.

Close walking distance to pub Friendly host Comfy bed Despite not receiving my dietary requirements until the evening before breakfast, it was clear the host pulled all the stops to provide dairy free milk and breakfast items I could eat. If you have any allergies or intolerances, I would suggest phoning the property beforehand as messages will not be received.

Contacted host via booking.com app messages days before arrival with my dietary requirements. Upon arriving, I was told by the host that she doesn't have time to open and read messages and therefore was not aware of my requirements for breakfast. Spiders and cobwebs in places

Great location in a picture postcard village. Wendy was friendly and helpful but not excessively. Her breakfasts were excellent. My room was clean and comfortable. There was plenty of tea, coffee and milk. There is also a good pub serving good food across the road.

Nothing for me but bare in mind it is a working farm and there are free ranging ducks, geese and chickens.

Lovely old cottage in the centre of the fascinating village half a mile from the SW coast path. Very helpful owner who provided lots of newspaper to stuff into our squelchy boots. Great meal in the traditional pub nearby. Very good full English breakfast. (Other options were probably available but we didn’t ask). Rooms were small as you would expect in a cottage but very clean. Supplementary electric heater in the room.

Nothing. The decor was a bit fussy for our taste but that is not a criticism.

Great location for exploring Abbotsbury. Great little farmhouse with geese, chickens and ducks in the yard. Our room was cosy and clean. Loved our breakfast and enjoyed chatting with the other guest who sat with us in the dining room. Parking was in the yard behind the farmhouse, which was really convenient and easy. We have a large car, but it fitted in just fine. Thanks to Wendy for a lovely stay!

Happy with everything!

Location is excellent for exploring Dorset. Abbotsbury itself is a delightful village. The Swan provides a decent pub meal and the Sub-Tropical Garden is great in all seasons. The B&B is very interesting, with various animals on site. Mind the hens and ducks when parking! The cooked breakfast was perfect. The room itself was rather small, as was the ensuite and shower, but perfectly comfortable. Mind your head if, like me, you are tall. Anyway, plenty of character. We would definitely return, both to Abbotsbury and to East Far, House.

Room size - a bit cramped, but acceptable given other attractions.
