What a gorgeous cottage in an amazing village. We had such a lovely week and slep so well in the comfy beds. Daughter did not want to come home! The walk to Hive beach was short and our small dogs loved it, and the garden was perfect for them. Would thoroughly recommend and wouldnt hesitate to return.

Superb cosy cottage - ideal for our November break. Great to have off street parking and an enclosed garden. So beautifully decorated and furnished.

A nice spacious Cottage in a very pretty village with lots of walking places from property with your dogs or children. The sea is about a 20 min walk to Hive beach.

Fig Tree Cottage is a lovely, spacious cottage in a great location. Well decorated throughout and well equipped kitchen. The furniture was very comfortable, except for the sofa in living room!

This cottage is well located in the area. Nearby West Bay is a lovely seaside town to visit. For proper shopping go to Bridport. The garden is well sealed and you can safely let your dog have full freedom out back. There is a blind corner next to the driveway, so pull out with caution.

We had a wonderful 2 week stay, with 2 dogs, at Fig Tree cottage. Great walks from the door and to the beach. The road is noisy so if you want a peaceful location, this may not be for you. Burton Bradstock is a pretty, friendly village with 2 pubs. Hive beach cafe is a must and we spent lovely afternoons at the beach.
