About this property

Knapp Cottage is in the suburb of Chickerell, in the sought-after county of Dorset, just a short drive away from the coast. This stone-fronted property offers an enclosed garden for alfresco dining in the warmer months and two off-road parking spaces for your convenience. Step inside and discover the spacious sitting room complete with a corner sofa, two armchairs, a TV and exposed beams for a rustic feel. Moving through the property, the farm-style kitchen hosts everything you need for a self-catered stay with a rangemaster cooker to prepare heart-warming meals, along with a dishwasher and washing machine for easy clean ups. Settle down in the conservatory-style dining room to tuck into home-cooked meals as you chatter about the adventures of the day or soak in the sun in the rear garden. As the evening cools, retire inside and venture upstairs where a family bathroom offers a bath to relax your muscles and an overhead shower to rinse the sand away. When sleep calls, choose between two tastefully furnished doubles, one with a TV and a single bedroom, ideal for the little one. In the morning, you can freshen up in the bathroom or cloakroom before savouring a cup of tea on the outdoor decking. A short stroll will lead you to the traditional local pub, The Lugger Inn for when you fancy a meal out there is a well-stocked convenience store for when you're running low on the essentials. Jump in the car to venture to the seaside town of Weymouth, home to a variety of attractions, including the SEA LIFE Centre Weymouth, Weymouth Harbour, Sandsfoot Castle, and Greenhill Beach. Weymouth is also a great place to enjoy a relaxing walk along the promenade, take in the stunning views of Weymouth Bay, and enjoy a bite to eat in one of the town's many restaurants and pubs. Also with easy reach is the sweeping Chesil Beach and the tied island of Portland, an ancient town located in the heart of the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site. The town is famed for its dramatic coastal scenery, historical buildings and the variety of outdoor activities on offer. Visit Dorchester, the perfect place to explore the great outdoors, with plenty of green spaces to enjoy. Borough Gardens is a beautiful park in the heart of the town, and Maiden Castle is a great spot for a picnic. For long-lasting memories with your loved ones, choose Knapp Cottage.

Chickerell is traditionally classified as a minor town, as well as a lovely suburb of Weymouth. It now has a village feel to it, with village stores, bars, and restaurants, as well as being served by the local bus system. Chesil Beach and Bennetts Water Gardens are two of the most popular activities close to Chickerell. Weymouth's award-winning beach with golden beaches and shallow water is only 2.9 miles away from Chickerell.

    The owners had left welcoming gifts which were very much appreciated. The location was perfect. We enjoyed exploring the area with so much on the doorstep. We also ate in the two local pubs which were within walking distance and enjoyed the lovely fresh eggs we’d purchased from a local property. A slight negative to a perfect rental is there is a busy B road at the back of the property which I mention although it didn’t bother us too much. But might others if you’re planning on writing a novel in the garden. Would definitely go back again.

    The house is very comfortable and clean. Lovely friendly neighbours (and owner if you get to meet her!)

  • Kate

    Comfortable, clean and with a number of extra touches from the hosts, it was perfect for our relaxing break away. The kitchen is well equipped, the beds comfy and the garden a sun trap. Great location for getting to everywhere too, with a pub 50 yards away! We had a great stay in this lovely cottage.
