This property is an exceptional find for families of all ages, as well as for avid ramblers and beachcombers to enjoy, with a plethora of footpaths and the sands of Weymouth resting just moments away. There is even access to the South Dorset Ridgeway from the lane at the end of the road. Inside, contemporary-style and tradition seamlessly combine within the sitting room, with the woodburning stove positioned in front of the Smart TV. Joining the space is a sleek dining table, where you can look forward to sociable moments with your loved ones, from tucking into home-cooked dishes, playing board games brought from home or popping open a bottle of bubbly to toast to a holiday to Dorset. From here, slip through to the light-filled kitchen, where an array of modern appliances await the designated chef of the group to make the most of. At the end of a bracing day of exploring, retire to one of the two bedrooms, comprising of a spacious double bedroom and a twin bedroom, both decorated with a neutral colour palette, quality linens and sumptuous pillows, bliss! Balmy afternoons at 40 The Ridgeway can be spent within the enclosed garden, where table and chairs offer an alternative spot for savouring your morning brew, alfresco dining and basking in the sunshine. Take a step back in time as you meander the village, taste the waters in the Wishing Well, visit the St Lawrence Church and explore the gardens before lingering over a tipple in one of the two village pubs! Admire the quaint thatched cottages of the village before venturing further afield, with walks and cycling opportunities heading in the direction of both Weymouth and Dorchester to enjoy. Alternatively, catch the regular bus that takes you into Weymouth town centre to enjoy its long arc of golden sands, visit Monkey World - home to over 250 rescued and endangered monkeys and apes or the SEA LIFE Centre, there is certainly something for the whole family here. For an action-packed getaway to Dorset, bring your loved ones to 40 The Ridgeway.

    Was very quiet and peaceful, a perfect getaway to escape. The cottage was very nice and clean when we arrived and everything was easy to find. Having instant hot water was an added bonus. The space was the perfect size for me and my partner and was only a 10 minute drive into either Weymouth Town Centre or Dorchester Town Centre. Would defiantly be coming back again.

    The cottage is maintained to a very high standard and was very clean. A nice touch was the milk and Dorset biscuits on arrival. Lovely quiet spot yet not far from Weymouth sea front and town, Parking was never a problem. Would definitely like to come back.

    Walks are on the doorstep and buses run between Dorchester and Weymouth from the end of the road. We hardly used the car all week. The cottage is clean, the decor fresh and tastefully furnished. The kitchen had everything we needed and as we had lovely weather, I enjoyed relaxing in the charming garden. I would definitely come back in the future. A minor note for the owner: I couldn’t find the box for glass recycling so took our empty wine bottles home with me. It seems to have gone missing.
