A true country idyll near Bridport, this streamside cottage welcomes solo visitors and couples to enjoy a peaceful break from the rhythm of everyday life.
This charming cottage, located in the small village of Uploders, is an ideal hideaway for couples. This cosy property is tastefully decorated in a pleasant country-cottage style, while a babbling unfenced stream that runs through the garden makes it the perfect place to relax. Its proximity to the local pub (125 metres) and coast (4.5 miles) makes it an enviable location for two to enjoy a peaceful holiday, however you like to unwind.
Enter this pretty cottage through the hall and into the welcoming lounge, where warm tones and beautiful exposed stone encourage you to curl up on the sofa with a good book in front of the wood burner. Take a step up into the well-equipped kitchen to fix yourself something to eat, and enjoy it at the table looking out through the sunroom windows. Enjoy a soothing soak in the bath after a long day of walking in the bright and airy bathroom – there’s also a shower over the bath if you prefer. Be careful on the winding narrow stairs up to the inviting double bedroom, where soft, calming decor and exposed beams will help you get a great night’s sleep, but watch your head in the low eaves! Outside, colourful plants and garden furniture offer the ideal spot for an al fresco drink in the evening, listening to the stream and watching the sun go down.
Take a wander around the lively market town Bridport (4 miles) and discover the local shops and cafes, then head 2 miles further down to West Bay beach, known as the gateway to the Jurassic Coast. Take one of the many walking routes to discover spectacular views and diverse wildlife. Eggardon Hill (3.5 miles), an Iron Age hill fort, is another good place for walking, with views across the Marshwood Vale to the coast.
