Cottage in Dorset

About this property

A thatched cottage with contemporary interiors, this home from home is just right for those looking to indulge in a solo break or romantic getaway.

Located just across the road from the Dorset Flapjack Company and less than 200 yards from a great local inn, you will be spoilt for choice for tasty treats throughout the day. Start your day with some freshly baked goodies and a hot cup of tea, before exploring the locale. 5 miles from Lulworth Cove, a trip to this iconic bay is a must. For an insight into local history, pay Lulworth Castle a visit too, also 5 miles away. A picture postcard property, this cottage is accessed via a short wooden bridge over a shallow stream. Step over the bridge and along the garden pathway through the shared front garden and cross the threshold into your dream getaway. Leaving your boots and coats in the flagstone hallway, you can then enter the bright and airy lounge/diner. Here, a sofa for two and an armchair invite you to rest your legs. A TV/DVD player adds an extra option for evening entertainment, whilst the coal effect electric fire is a brilliant addition for chillier, winter evenings. Peppered with original features, the space manages to blend traditional charm with plenty of modern comforts. From the lounge you can access the property s kitchen. Affording garden views and equipped with everything you could need, from oven, hob, microwave, dishwasher, to washing machine and more, it is a pleasant space for both cooking and socialising.
