Overview
Property code: 87065

This inviting property occupies an idyllic setting within the pretty suburb of Upwey. A wonderful choice for walkers and those seeking a restful break, whilst being close to many popular attractions.

Discover some of the prettiest beaches on the south coast with a stay in this delectable Dorset holiday home. Happily sleeping a family of five in blissful surroundings, this wonderful cottage is on-hand to offer a peaceful stay in a village on the outskirts of Weymouth (4.5 miles). Set off through the day to explore the surrounding walking routes, stopping off en-route home in one of the village’s charming local pubs before enjoying an evening of relaxation in your private garden or cosy interiors.

Lovingly presented with pastel tones and clean and fresh interiors, this characterful country cottage offers an instant home-from-home from the moment you cross its threshold. The farmhouse style kitchen is on-hand for keeping all of the family fed and watered. A joyous space for your family chef to cook a spectacular dinner or pack up a picnic, this room comes complete with a quality Range oven and a digital radio for staying entertained. Next door sits a cosy lounge/diner with charming low ceilings and wooden beams. Sit beside the warming wood burner and enjoy a board game together. Restricted head height is continued on the first floor where three bedrooms offer plenty of inviting space for achieving a full eight hours’ kip.

Having enjoyed countryside views from your private garden with stream running through, step out and explore an abundance of walking routes. Situated in the Dorset AONB, you’re never far from beautiful scenery and waymarked paths to traipse. A short drive leads to the West Dorset Heritage Coast (6 miles) with seemingly endless seascapes along the South West Coastal Path to appreciate. From here you can also admire the incredible 18-mile Chesil Beach (6.5 miles), a fantastic part of the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site offering fantastic opportunities for fishing and simply relaxing on shingle shores.

We had a lovely week staying here. Both pubs worth a visit and its easy to reach Dorchester and Weymouth on the frequent bus service if you dont want to drive.

Cosy cottage with everything we needed for a lovely week away with our 2 children. Lovely and warm, so we had no need to use the fire but a big basket of logs was provided. We had no problems parking outside the cottage, although the road can get pretty busy at times and cars not travelling at the speed limit so young children need to be watched.

Amazing cottage in a beautiful Dorset village. There are lovely views and walks around the cottage, and it is only about a 10min drive to Weymouth. The cottage is very well equipped and we enjoyed the stream running through the garden. The garden/sitting area wasn't huge but it was just enough to have a morning coffee there.

Cottage was full of character and clean but cold during evening and night. No comfortable garden furniture or privacy, only one garden sofa to cater for a house that accommodates 5 people. If you want television, limited channels, it didn't bother us as we are not into watching tv on holiday.

Great cottage, one of the best we have stayed in. The photos do not do it justice!! A small, well restored cottage, yet deceptively roomy inside. Contained everything we needed and more. There was always parking available. A short 12 minute drive to museums in Dorchester, and similar to the harbour in Weymouth. Lots to see and do within a 30 minuteRead more drive, recommend Portland Bill and the Tout Quarry Sculpture Park and Nature Reserve (free). Definitely hope to be back soon. Hide
