The ideal bolthole for two, this stylish lodge is set in an elevated spot near the West Dorset coast and has a hot tub, far reaching views and easy access to Weymouth, Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door.
This romantic retreat for two is the perfect coastal hideaway for you and your favourite four-legged pals. The stylish lodge is within easy reach of some of West Dorset’s most iconic woof-friendly beaches, such as Durdle Door (8.5 miles) and Chesil Beach (7 miles). Explore the historic seaside town of Weymouth (7 miles), with its fine array of paw-friendly pubs and cafes or enjoy a peaceful stroll around the grounds of Lulworth Castle (11.5 miles).
A slope and picket gate takes you from the parking area to the single-storey property, which benefits from an elevated position and distant sea views. Once inside, you’ll discover a magnificent open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with a vaulted ceiling and decorated in a contemporary style, with sleek lines and tasteful touches. Enjoy a romantic meal for two at the dining table, before snuggling up on the sofa to watch a film with the hounds curled at your feet. A stable door leads from the king-size bedroom to the enclosed garden, where you’ll find an area of artificial lawn for the pups to play on, as well as outdoor furniture and your own private hot tub. On a clear day, admire distant views right out across the bay.
The iconic limestone arch that reaches out into the sea at Durdle Door is one of Dorset’s most photographed beauty spots, and it’s not hard to see why. You and the woofer can marvel at its grandeur from the shingle beach at any time of the year, and there are some fabulous clifftop walks to explore in the surrounding area. The pretty seaside town of Weymouth houses some wonderful woof-friendly eateries, as well as a photogenic harbour and an 18-mile shingle ridge – Chesil Beach – which the hounds will absolutely adore. It’s wild, rugged and, most importantly, dog friendly all year.
