Delightful thatched cottage in beautiful sleepy Dorset village and countryside
Yoah Cottage has been lovingly refurbished to provide a comfortable & cosy stay. Yoah still boosts many original character with exposed beams & brickwork. The cottage is situated in the sleepy Dorset village of West Knighton, with the added bonus of family-owned pub next door. Yoah sleeps up to 9 guests, with 5 bedrooms compromising of 3 king size bedrooms, 1 twin room, plus a single bedroom downstairs. Plenty of parking with a garden to enjoy.
Welcome cooked family meals are available to pre-order, these are freshly prepared by the pub chefs so why not have a Cottage Pie or Thai Vegetable Curry or Lasagne or Fish Pie waiting for you when you arrive to just heat up, with a chilled glass of wine or two already waiting in the fridge. You could order a meal for every night so no hassle finding the local shop or cooking!!
Meals are made in a traditional family oven dish, and serve 6 standard portions, they will be left in the fridge for your arrival and cost £25 each, wine can be pre-ordered to, with Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot white wine, Merlot and Malbec in red, these are £15 a bottle, and must be pre-ordered by email.
West Knighton is a great base for many countryside walks, and a short drive to the Jurassic Coast and if needed many many family attractions.

We had such a wonderful stay at Yoah Cottage! The house was nice and clean and so cosy! And the kids loved the big garden to play in. It was also very thoughtfull that the owner had put some toys in de kids room. We had two amazing dinners at the pub next to the cottage and have already talked about coming back next year. Would 100% recommend!

We had a very comfortable stay here for 3 nights. 4 adults and 3 children between 8 and 18 months. The property was a greet size and so much room for everyone. A lovely quiet location with a stunning family friendly pub nextdoor which provide an ample menu. A very well equipped kitchen, although with a local shop a 20 minute walk/drive away, some Milk for that first cup of tea and a little welcome pack would have been much appreciated, particularly for the price you are paying to stay. Rooms were tidy and very comfortable for everyone, large and airy with lovely ensuites.We didn't need to speak to the host but we were able to speak to the General Manager of the New Inn nextdoor who also advised he manages the let's, he was very helpful and friendly.Parking is incredibly awkwars for 2 cars, especially a large car like our XC90! We were able to turnaround each time in the pub carpark which has alot of parking.Perhaps an arrangement could be made for future guests with larger vehicles to park in the pub carpark instead, this could be a good option for large parties.All in all a wonderful first stay in West Knighton and we would definitely recommend this cottage.

Delightful property next to a very helpful pub. Quite a distance from the coast but plenty to see nearby.The kitchen was well equipped and enough for everybody/The beds were comfortable and clean linen and towels. We wish this had been put in the description. Getting in contact with anyone before the stay was very difficult/Parking space for three cars was very tight., we now know why.

Very spacious cottage, comfortable and homely. Extremely well equipped. Beautiful rear garden, with unusual arbutus [strawberry] tree, excellent for our dog. A very friendly and helpful host at the inn next door, who also looked after the cottage. Can recommend the large lasagna, fish pie and Thai curry dishes prepared by the inn's chef. No complaints or quibbles whatsoever.

Urlaub mit Freunden
Das Ferienhaus war für uns 7 erwachsene Personen sehr gut geeignet. 2 DZ inkl. Dusche/ WC; 2DZ mit gemeinsamem Bad mit Badewanne+Dusche+WC; 1 separates WC Nähe Wohnzimmer; 1 EZ. Kücheneinrichtung perfekt; Stauraum in den Schlafzimmern etwas knapp. Parkplatz für 2 Autos vor der Tür. Hübscher Garten. Sehr empfehlenswert ist der Pub nebenan. Sofort Tisch für 7 Personen organisiert und vorzüglich gegessen. WLan hat funktioniert. Wahrscheinlich neuer Router.

Lovely cottage
We have just returned from a wonderful few days at Yoah Cottage. It is very clean and comfortable and in a great location. The pub is right next door and has fabulous views over the Dorset countryside. The food is also lovely, we were sad that we weren’t there for a Sunday carvery.
The only constructive criticism I would give is that the house sleeps nine people, and some of the equipment in the kitchen is inadequate for this many people. There in only one larger pans, and the kettle is very small and takes a long time to boil. The pans also don’t work very well with the halogen cooker and took ages to get to temperature.
We had an issue with the WiFi on the first day, but Stacey was very quick to get it sorted and was always on hand if we needed anything.
Other than that, it is a faultless cottage, and we would stay there again. Just be mindful if you are over 5ft 2 As the ceiling height and door frames are Police, they can be a police officer very low!

Family get together
The cottage was very attractive, clean and comfortable. We booked a 3 night stay for 4 couples over the August Bank Holiday weekend for a family gathering nearby. The location was perfect with the added bonus of the New Inn pub next door who provided us with a delicious meal bank holiday Monday. This was pre-ordered and delivered to the cottage - ideal!
A larger kettle in the kitchen would be useful as the current kettle required boiling twice each time we wanted to make 8 hot drinks!

Georgous cottage
6 Adults, a toddler and 2 dogs stayed for a 3 night family break.
Very comfy beds and cosy rooms, en-suites were small but not really a problem but the main downstairs bathroom lovely and large. Lovely meals supplied by the pub next door. Great location.
I do feel the garden needs some tlc.

Nice house but garden poor and virtually no wifi/TV
On arrival all of the windows were open, which was we guessed to air it as there was a musty smell. The garden was not in a good condition and had many weeds and the grass was long in most areas except where new seeded areas were. Would not be suitable for children. The house is supposed to suit 9 people, and whilst there were plenty of plates, cups and glasses, there were only two saucepans - one small one for vegetables, and a milk pan. Certainly no where near enough for myself and 4 friends and so not for 9 people!
The worst thing was virtually no wifi - which meant no TV. I had to work each morning before we left for our sewing class in Poundbury and found it almost impossible as I could not access my business cloud documents or download emails. The owner sent in someone from the pub next door who after much poking around confirmed that the router was in the pub next door and serviced that and a number of other houses they owned. The property should have its own DEDICATED router/account and not a shared one. It made the week very stressful for me as the speed in the house was less than 5mb - when it worked!
Overall the location was nice, quiet and the house great for maximum of 5 people - e.g if 9 people were there and wanted to sit together it would be the floor as the lounge sat 6, and the sun room 4 unless everyone squashed it. It would have been nice to have cushions for the outside table.

Fantastic location for exploring Jurassic coast
Lovely old thatched property , perfect for a girlie weekend away. Beware anyone tall as low beams/ceilings in places. I would thoroughly recommend pre ordering food for the house from the pub next door - very cheap, very generous portions and very delicious. Probably the best cottage pie we’ve ever had!!! Great location being only 10 mins from Weymouth and 20mins to Lulworth Cove. Also it’s worth a stroll through the village as there are some beautiful old properties.

60th Birthday weekend
My Husband loves Dorset, and how better to spend time in this lovely county celebrating his 60th birthday than in this adorable thatched cottage. Full of character yet modern, clean and comfortable. We all loved staying at Yoah Cottage with the added bonus of The new Inn next door. Would highly recommend this accommodation for a break in the country

Dorset Break
The cottage is on a nice location and is spacious. What let it down for us was that it was not very clean. It was dusty, the bathrooms needed a good going over and hair was blow led in the plug holes. What an absolute shame the owners didn’t think to get this sorted, as with a few minor changes it would have scored much higher.

Beautiful, thatched cottage.
The cottage was stunning -perfect English thatched cottage -beautiful and spacious with comfortable beds and we loved watching the sun set over the fields from the back garden. We took our golden doodle dog and went on many walks all around the incredible coast. The pub supplied 2 meals -fish pie and veg curry and both were delicious. A peaceful little village with walks straight from the house too. We hope to return!
