This beautifully converted Grade II listed granary offers cosy accommodation for a family or a couple and is situated in a picturesque village just outside the thriving Dorset town of Bridport.

This property is a delightful Grade II listed granary that has been converted using environmentally-friendly materials in the quiet village of Walditch. The granary has plenty of character with a mixture of contemporary and traditional furnishings, and even features ancient external steps to the former hayloft at one end of the barn. Close to the pub and shops in Bridport (1 mile), this cottage is in an enviable location for those looking for a relaxing holiday.

Enter the property through the stable door and discover a bright and airy open-plan living space, with everything you need to cook up a storm in the contemporary-styled kitchen area. Sink into the comfy sofas in front of the wood burner among the exposed stone walls and wood beams for a peaceful evening after a long day. Walk through the living area into a spacious twin bedroom with original features and a shower room with WC just next door. Up the winding stairs, you’ll find a beautiful double bedroom that adds a boutique feel to your stay; wake up in soft, pretty decor and head to the large en-suite for a soothing bath or have a quick shower if you’re in a hurry to get out and explore the local area. Outside, there’s a courtyard that’s partially screened, making it ideal for an al fresco evening drink as the sun goes down.

Head down to West Bay (3 miles) for glorious sands and fossil hunting or go for a walk along the majestic sandstone cliffs. You could walk down to the end of the Jurassic Pier for views of the coast from South Devon to Portland. For a countryside walk, visit Colmer’s Hill (4 miles), where you’ll see plenty of wildlife along the footpath and ocean views from the top.

Location near Bridport excellent. Very peaceful. Wood burner and unlimited logs were appreciated. Upstairs bedroom and bathroom pleasant. Good showers. Uncomfortable sofas downstairs made relaxing difficult. Immediate surroundings a bit ramshackle.

This wonderfully cosy cottage is an easy 15 minute walk from the centre of Bridport down a beautiful tree-lined lane. Walks directly from the cottage take you up onto the hills with beautiful views. A 40 minute walk takes you to the beach at West Bay. It is a great centre from which to explore other Dorset delights including the newly revealed sea Read moremonster (Pliosaur) fossil at Kimmeridge. Hide

This is a first class cottage in a great location for exploring the surrounding area. The cottage is well equipped and the log burner was just what we needed on a couple of chilly evenings. The hosts are really friendly and Mark is very knowledgeable about the local places of interest and things to see and do.
