Property code: 86474

This charming property is set in the heart of an idyllic village and is ideally placed for spending your days at the beach, touring the Jurassic Coast, or simply relaxing in the cottage garden.

Studded within the chocolate-box village of Langton Herring is this marvellous property that’s top dog for your Dorset escape. Sleeping six humans and one hound, you’ll be just 6 miles from bustling Weymouth and a whole host of beaches. Pack a picnic and take to the coast path, pausing for a game of fetch on the dog-friendly shores of Chesil Beach before continuing your journey.

Sleek, contemporary and boasting impressive interior design, your accommodation is primed for relaxing. No need to fret about muddy paws either, the downstairs utility room and shower room will help dust Fido off before he takes his spot in front of the wood burner. The split-level kitchen is equipped with everything you could need to whip up a feast, and the first of three bedrooms is just along the hallway. Steep cottage-style stairs reveal two further bedrooms, and tucked in the eaves of the house on the second floor is a delightful bathroom. Watch out for reduced head height due to the age of the property! Outside, a fire pit awaits on the patio or you can scamper along the path to the pretty garden and second patio.

The village itself has inspiring views of Chesil Beach, a pup-approved gem on the West Dorset Heritage Coast, 4 miles away. In the opposite direction, Weymouth is a seaside resort town with a family-friendly allure thanks to its numerous eateries, shoreline attractions and lots of amusements. Persevering along the Jurassic Coast will reward you with even more sandy shores that are safe for your tufty-pawed pal to play, highlights including Lulworth Cove, 19 miles away.

Good location for local beaches. A comfortable cottage with good sized bedrooms. Not for those with any mobility issues as downstairs bathroom is accessed through a split level kitchen so has some steps and the upstairs bathroom is up 2 quite steep flights of stairs. Garden is small but adequate for a small dog.

Nice cottage but the pub has closed, so you will need to go in a car to get any food nearby. The cleanliness could be improved and we have made the owner aware. Its nice to be able to walk out the door and go straight onto some nice walks.
