This welcoming holiday cottage sits in the rural Dorset village of Chideock. Sleeping four guests, the property suits small families and couples looking to explore West Dorset’s spectacular beaches and dramatic coast paths, with Seatown Beach just 1 mile away. This remote shingle beach is the perfect spot for a relaxing morning walk, and is also popular amongst fossil hunters. Refuel at The Anchor Inn pub, with it's seasonal menus made with local produce. You’ll also be within easy reach of much-loved Dorset beaches such as West Bay (4 miles) and Lyme Regis (7 miles). For those wanting to warm up after a dip in the sea, Seatown, West Bay and Lyme Regis all have wood-fired saunas available to book on the beach. For beach days out without the car, hop on a bus from the village to Weymouth or Lyme Regis. Chideock is a fantastic base for walkers, with routes branching away from the village along the South West Coast Path and through the surrounding countryside, as well as a new Bridleway to Bridport.
Inside, the ground floor has a bright, open-plan layout with a striking, beamed ceiling and patio doors leading to the garden. After a day at the coast, relax in here, stretched out on the L-shaped sofa as you watch the Smart TV, or share a family meal at the wooden dining table. The kitchen area has everything needed for a self-catered break, and completing this room is a cosy wood burner for those chilly winter evenings. Heading upstairs to the first floor, you’ll find a delightful twin bedroom with wooden floors and whitewashed stone walls. This floor also has a handy WC. The second bedroom is an inviting double located on the second floor, with a vaulted ceiling, exposed trusses, and skylights. The family bathroom completes this floor. Please note, the cottage has characterful low ceilings and exposed beams, and you may experience restricted head height in some areas.
Outside, a sunny patio garden awaits, with furniture for al fresco dining. This space is fully enclosed, making it ideal for children and four-pawed guests. You’ll also have access to a shed with a tumble dryer and space to store bikes and beach gear. The property has private parking for two cars.
