About this property
Little Ivy is a pretty thatched Grade II listed cottage dating back hundreds of years, situated in the heart of West Lulworth, one of the most popular villages along the coast in Dorset. Just a few minutes stroll from the property is Lulworth Cove famous for its geologically unique and beautiful cove. Also just a stroll away is the Dorset Coastal Path, ice cream shops and tempting seafood shacks (all seasonal). Here also you will find two pubs serving food and offering views. Another pub just a second away The Castle Inn is pet friendly and has a good garden. The nearby Durdle Door, a large rock formation likened to a doorway, arising from the sea, is a must visit attraction; a popular beach offering snorkelling and cliff walks. A lazy trip along the coast will take you to Swanage in the east and Weymouth in the west. Days can be filled with activities such as a boat ride along the coast, walking along the coastline searching for fossils or exploring the many geological and historical sites nearby. Returning to the cottage you may choose to dine alfresco in the small garden.

Little Ivy was exactly what we hoped for, cosy, charming and very clean. The cottage was absolutely lovely inside and the owners had made sure we had everything we could possibly need. It was so helpful to stay in a place where kitchen basics like washing up liquid, salt & pepper, bin bags etc were provided and you weren't having to bring a mountain of stuff just for a few nights. The milk, wine and biscuits were very much appreciated too. It was a short walk to the beautiful Lulworth Cove and from there a stunning walk to Durdle Door. We enjoyed our stay so much and would not hesitate to stay at Little Ivy again. Stayed February 2018

We chose Lulworth for our first family holiday. Little Ivy Cottage was PERFECT. It was the perfect size for the two of us, our 10 month old daughter and our dog. it felt very homely and comfortable. The house keepers were fantastic and gave us lots of details about the area on our arrival. There was also a dog box with treats, towels and spare leads, a bottle of wine and biscuits on our arrival which was lovely. It was very close to Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door, which were both excellent places. The location of the cottage was also good to get to coastal beaches and we covered a lot of the coast in our weeks stay. We have booked again for next year as we fell in love with Dorset and we cant wait to stay in Little Ivy Cottage again. Thankyou for making our first family holiday memorable. Stayed May 2017
