Independent shops, great pubs and restaurants, and amazing walks - The famous Gold Hill with views of the Blackmore Vale is a 3 minute level stroll from the house. The town has museum and an old Abbey garden so plenty to see and do. There is no need for car, but if you have one we are so close to the jurassic coastline with all the beaches/walks and places of interest to visit there. Longleat Safari/Tank Museum/ Monkey world are also a short distance away. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: WiFi ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1.5 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Outdoor areas - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/88000000/87660000/87657500/87657406/dcaad44e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Ramblers is an ideal base for couples looking to stay Marnhull - Washer - Pet friendly - Outdoor Space - Parking available 9.6 Exceptional 5 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=87657406&PinnedHotelID=87657406&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior detail](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/119000000/118950000/118942100/118942027/057802d5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 1 bedroom accommodation in Sturminster Newton Sturminster Newton - Kitchen - Pet friendly - Free WiFi - Parking available [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=118942027&PinnedHotelID=118942027&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33950000/33945300/33945219/451e838d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 17th Century converted Coach House in Shaftesbury, Dorset Shaftesbury - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly 9.8 Exceptional 101 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=33945219&PinnedHotelID=33945219&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/112000000/111620000/111610100/111610082/5ec9e970.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cottage on Brook -> Castle, Walks, Shop & Cafe Nunney - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly 9.4 Exceptional 10 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=111610082&PinnedHotelID=111610082&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Apartment](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/112000000/111470000/111469300/111469272/4a51bdaf.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Host Stay Apartment 4 Church Walk Melksham - Free WiFi 6.0 1 review [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=111469272&PinnedHotelID=111469272&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Living area](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/114000000/113370000/113365000/113364972/219fb38b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Modern 2-bedroom house with spacious large garden in beautiful Westbury Westbury - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly 10 Exceptional 1 review CA $280 CA $318 total includes taxes & fees Jan 27 - Jan 28 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-27&endDate=2026-01-28&selected=113364972&PinnedHotelID=113364972&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) [Compare similar properties](/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=101281245&PinnedHotelID=101281245&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2&comparePropertyIds=101281245,87657406,118942027,33945219,111610082) ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 4:00 PM Minimum check-in age: 18 ### Check-out Check-out before 11:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions Information provided by the property may be translated using automated translation tools ### Pets Pets not allowed ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome Note from host: No cot beds or highchairs or stair gates provided. ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know Extra-person charges may apply and vary depending on property policy Government-issued photo identification and a credit card, debit card, or cash deposit may be required at check-in for incidental charges Special requests are subject to availability upon check-in and may incur additional charges; special requests cannot be guaranteed Onsite parties or group events are strictly prohibited Host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector with you on the trip Host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property This property is managed through our partner, Vrbo.

It had everything we needed, was very clean and Nicky was great at communicating. Will definitely book again. ##### Kate O. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chris T. May 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Another great stay at Easter Cottage. This was our fourth stay at the cottage and the one thing I can say that we really like is consistency. It is always clean, welcoming and a bit of an oasis in the centre of Shaftesbury. We had a rental car and use of a parking space cannot be overstated in the town. The cottage is cozy and everything works! Its location is also great for the various restaurants and walks around town.There are a couple of new eateries that we tried since our last visit in November 2023\. The Kings Arms has opened as a gastro pub and was very good. Although around for many years, we also had a very enjoyable meal with friends at the Italian San Tonino, especially interesting if you like going through a graveyard to get to a restaurant! We also visit Aroma at least once every trip.Thanks for Nicky for her hospitality and we are already looking forward to our next visit, hopefully in 2026\. ##### Chris T.

Oct 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Lovely cottage. Spotlessly clean. Had all you needed for a weeks stay. Bed very comfy.Only few minutes walk from centre of Shaftsbury with lovely shops and Gold Hill.Parking space. ##### Carolyn L. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stuart M. Jul 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Check-in A comfortable and well-appointed modern cottage, ideally located for access to Shaftesbury's facilities and exploring the surrounding area. However, we were disconcerted that the check-in details were provided only a short time before our scheduled arrival time. We had some difficulty accessing the Vrbo portal to view the owner's messages. In other properties we have rented, check-in details have always been provided well beforehand. ##### Stuart M.
