The Chalet self contained with Patio

About this property

The Chalet self contained with Patio is an inviting house in West Bay, Dorset, offering single-storey living, an enclosed garden and a beach nearby for an adult-only coastal escape. Ease into the morning with coffee fresh from the coffee maker, gathering around the dining area as plans for the coast begin to take shape. The open-plan living space keeps everything close at hand, with a kitchen for preparing meals and a sitting area where the sofa bed provides additional sleeping space. When the evening draws in, switch on the TV or choose a book or game and recount the day's adventures. The separate double bedroom has its own TV, while a shower room with a walk-in shower completes the interior. Outside, the enclosed garden has furniture for drinks in the fresh air and a barbecue ready for alfresco dinners after hours spent exploring Dorset.

West Bay puts the sea at the forefront of your stay, with its shingle beach offering opportunities for paddleboarding and body surfing. Take a bucket down to the water for some crabbing, or pull on your walking shoes and follow the coastal routes around the bay, discovering the dramatic surroundings of the Jurassic Coast as you go. Nearby Bridport offers another destination when you fancy a change of scene, while wider Dorset invites you to turn a short outing into a day of exploration. Back in West Bay, embrace the simple pleasures of a seaside afternoon, perhaps rounding things off with fish and chips before heading back to fire up the barbecue. For coastal walks, days beside the water and evenings spent in the garden, experience West Dorset from The Chalet self contained with Patio.

West Bay, fondly known as “The Gateway to the Dorset Jurassic Coast” and popularised by the TV series Broadchurch, lies close to the glorious sandstone cliffs of Golden Cap, at the western end of the dramatic pebbly Chesil Beach. This is a wonderful seaside location, perfect for family holidays, offering scenic walks along the South West Coast Path, as well as ample opportunities to try your hand at sea fishing, crabbing, boating and golf. Visit the homes of Thomas Hardy and TE Lawrence, the Tank Museum at Bovington or the Naval Air Museum at Yeovil. Only 1.5 miles away is the vibrant market town of Bridport, featured in the TV series, River Cottage. The area holds plenty of attractions to suit the whole family! Just a short drive West takes you to Charmouth for fossil hunting, to the picturesque seaside resort of Lyme Regis, and to River Cottage HQ near Axminster. To the East are the lovely Sub-tropical Gardens and Swannery at Abbotsbury, and the golden sands of Weymouth. This wonderful location makes an ideal base for a great family holiday.
