Dorset Cottages - Page 4

Strand Cottage is a dreamy holiday home in the idyllic village of Burton Bradstock, close to West Bay, Bridport and the spectacular Jurassic Coast. It's everything you picture a country cottage to be with an attractive front garden, beams, an inglenook fireplace, very comfortable bedrooms, and a rear garden with views of the coastal footpath. The cottage sleeps four people in two bedrooms and is ideal for a family holiday or a romantic couple's retreat to the coast. There are two pubs, a village shop and an award-winning beach cafe, all within walking distance. 

River View sits in a peaceful location next to a meadow within stepping distance of the Kings Arms in Stoborough and a ten-minute walk from the Saxon market town of Wareham. There is room for up to seven guests plus a cot, making it popular with families and friends who want to be close to Isle of Purbeck attractions like Corfe Castle, Bovington Tank Museum and Monkey World. Beautiful beaches including Swanage and Kimmerage Bay are nearby, and there is a good variety of walking trails and nature reserves where you can enjoy getting close to nature. Poole and Bournemouth are both an easy drive, or there is a train station in Wareham if you want to leave the car. With so much to offer visitors, it is no wonder that River View is a favourite with holidaymakers who fall in love with the natural beauty of the Isle of Purbeck.

Within easy reach of the spectacular World Heritage Coast, this historic Grade II listed holiday home sits in the wing of a farmhouse and affords excellent facilities including the use of a hot tub and swimming pool. A remote picturesque position only two miles from Abbotsbury and perfect for discovering the natural beauty of Dorset.

Sitting quietly in the peaceful village of Bloxworth, Old Kilns is a deceptively spacious holiday home that is ideal for families with older children and groups of friends who want to see the best that Dorset has to offer. Bloxworth is convenient for the Jurassic Coast beaches, like Weymouth and Studland Bay, and the Purbeck Heritage Coast, but it is also close to wonderful towns including Poole, Dorchester and Blandford Forum. Walk along the coastal footpath past Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door, or take the kids to one of Dorset’s top attractions like Bovington Tank Museum and Monkey World. Old Kilns is in the centre of it all, providing a restful haven at the end of a fun-filled day.

The whole family will love Groom Cottage. Sleeping six people in three rooms, the single storey stone cottage is one of several superb holiday properties on Doles Ash Farm which can be hired individually or depending on availability, hired together to accommodate larger groups. Doles Ash Farm is surrounded by private gardens and fields in the Piddle Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty close to Dorchester, Weymouth, Bridport and the World Heritage Jurassic Coastline. Closer to home, there are miles of walks that lead from the property, although with facilities like an indoor swimming pool, games room, outdoor children's play area and animals to pet, you could quite easily spend a happy holiday without going much further than the front door.

This elegant holiday home has five bedrooms and can accommodate up to 12 people with ease, providing a quiet base that is within walking distance of the beach, shops, pubs and attractions in Weymouth. It's a fantastic choice for families or friends who love not only its convenient location but also its huge garden with a deck for entertaining, original features that include an open fireplace, and high quality of furnishings that make it feel like a welcoming second home.

Couples and families love Rosemary Cottage for its period character, comfortable interiors and tranquil rural location.

There is no passing traffic, and guests have direct access to footpaths and cycling routes leading to the beach at Seatown, Symondsbury and Colmer's Hill. The South West Coast Footpath is another wonderful option, giving plenty of ways to enjoy this stunning landscape. Spend happy days outdoors, discover the Jurassic Coast's delights, and explore places like Dorchester and Bridport. There is something to appeal to everyone in every season.
