Located in the village of Chideock, just a stone’s throw from the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site, this cosy cottage is ideal for couples and families keen to explore West Dorset’s spectacular beaches and coast paths.

Brimming with characterful features including a beamed ceiling and roaring wood burner, the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner perfectly reflects the heritage of your local surroundings. Flooded with natural sunlight, this endlessly social space provides everything you need to dine, unwind and cook with loved ones. During the summer months, throw open the patio doors to the garden to enjoy the soothing sounds of the evening breeze. Featuring a combination of whitewashed stone walls, vaulted ceilings and exposed trusses, the twin bedroom on the first floor and double bedroom on the second floor offer a haven of tranquillity to retire to at the end of a day at the coast. Please note that, as the cottage has low ceilings and exposed beams, you may experience restricted headroom in some areas. Outside, an enclosed patio garden awaits, perfect for dining alfresco, and access to a shed with a tumble dryer and space to store bikes and beach gear. There is private parking for two cars.

Chideock, nestled between Bridport (3 miles) and Lyme Regis (7 miles), is steeped in history, home to some wonderful local pubs, and with the neighbouring seaside hamlet of Seatown (1 mile), lies in a National Landscape comprised of breathtaking cliffs and sea views. Seatown Beach (1 mile) is the perfect spot for a relaxing morning walk, popular amongst fossil hunters, with the golden sands of West Bay reached within 4.5 miles. Chideock is a fantastic base for walkers, with routes branching from the village along the South West Coast Path and through the surrounding countryside, as well as a new bridleway to Bridport.

A really lovely little property, lean and comfortable for a family of 4 base to explore the coast. Games and books very welcomed and the property is very well kitted out and thoughtfully done out. It does back on to a pub garden area which we hadn't realised and did have some noise/colourful language during football games, as was the bottles beingRead more emptied at 5am a huge noise; also worth noting the property is very close to a very busy road. Though accessed off the main road its very noisy as with a hot summer we had to have windows open, and road noise was high even during the night with large lorries - sadly a tricky road to cross with lack of pavements down to main crossing and a 30mph not stuck too. Something to consider with elderly or young family. Hide

We was impressed with the level cleanliness in the property and cosy home feel. We enjoyed Seatown which is a lovely quiet beach and the local pub. Only slight issue was the main road through village which can be quite noisy at times. Over all we enjoyed staying there.

A very comfortable, quiet cottage.....I say quiet because it is just off the very busy main road sadly going through the village but you couldn't hear the traffic at all......turning right out of the drive takes you into the heart of the village and the Anchor pub at the end of the lane in Seatown is a must visit! The cottage contained everything Read morewe needed for our long weekend visit......tea/coffee/sugar/condiments/biscuits/milk were all a welcome surprise. The kitchen has everything you need to create meals or just warm something up in the microwave. The beds were comfortable, the water hot. If you are a TV watcher remember your various passwords for extra tv channels......The cottage is on 3 floors so agility is a must! We loved our stay, not only in the village, but in the beautiful surrounding area - so many places to visit in easy reach....and do climb Golden Cap - beautiful views. Hide

Great cottage so this is not a criticism it could be a health and safety issue, getting in and out of the shower and the bath was difficult my friend could not get a grip getting out of the shower and I had difficulty getting out of the bath all that is needed is a couple ofhandles we are both in our seventys.

What a spectacular find. This cottage is a beautiful little gem that is clearly loved and maintained to an exceptionally high standard. From top to bottom, everything you could possibly need is provided. It felt like a home away from home. Im already planning my next visit, though I have a feeling I'll have to book early to beat the crowds!
