We had a great stay here along with all the necessary comforts and views to die for. A good central point for plenty of walks in both directions - a challenging one to Seatown where The Anchor is a great pub plus in the other direction via both the cliff top path and the beach towards Burton Bradstock. Bridport is a good town to see on market days Read more- Weds and Sats - and we ate well at the Station restaurant and The Rise. Hide
