Immerse yourself in rural charm at this historic stone cottage in the picturesque village of Eype. Sleeping four people across three bedrooms, it’s perfect for small families or groups of friends in search of a serene seaside getaway in Dorset. Spend contented hours hunting for fossils on Eype Beach, and in the evening, come home to enjoy delicious al fresco dinner on your cottage’s pretty decked area.
Park in the allocated spot in the nearby private car park and take the short walk to the property (when arriving and departing, you can briefly stop outside the cottage). Step inside into an inviting open-plan living/kitchen/dining area where a soft, earthy colour palette contrasts beautifully against the historic, dark-grained beams. Please note there are low ceilings and doorways in some areas. The wood burner is the focal point of the living area, while the kitchen with its farmhouse-style dining table adds to the rustic charm. Outside, there is lawn with a lower decked area with a dining table and a fire pit. Back inside, a cheerful single bedroom awaits on the ground floor. Climb the open-tread cottage-style stairs and you’ll find two pretty double bedrooms. A smart family shower room completes the layout.
Spend a great day exploring the lively market town of Bridport (1 mile), which is known for its independent shops, cultural venues and easy access to the Jurassic coast. Or head off to the Symondsbury Estate (1.5 miles) to stroll through the rolling fields and landscaped grounds.
