Enjoyable stay, well situated with nearby paths leading to easy access to the sea at West bay, shops, bus route and walks through the meadows into Bridport. Very clean and comfortable house, well equipped too. No bath, but the shower was easy to use. Lovely garden to walk around and patio to view it!

Cotley is a great property. Spacious interior and a lovely garden. We'd use it again no hesitation. The Holiday Cottages booking fee of 65 seems a little OTT but the house itself is excellent value.

Everything about the house was great, warm during this cold spell. The situation was good with a short walk to the beach and near Bridport. The garden was lovely for Billy the dog. Thanks for a very enjoyable stay, will stay again if we are in the area.

Perfect location for exploring the Dorset coast. Our 2 labradoodles had a great time in the fully enclosed large garden. The sea view from the bedroom, the comfortable super king size bed, the peacefulness, all made for a lovely holiday. House is really light and we spent most time in the dining area or in the garden.
