  • Charming property tucked away along a private no through lane in a peaceful and rural setting
  • Ideal for enjoying wonderful walks from the doorstep with footpaths leading down to a beautiful beach
  • Explore the stunning Jurassic Coast and the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty
Property code: OC-DC162

The stylish converted barn sleeps five guests and one dog. Located just 1 mile from the Jurassic Coast, a World Heritage Site, you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to breathtaking clifftop walks and rambles through the open countryside. Children will love the chance to hunt for fossils on the beaches – including Eype, just 3 miles away - and the dog can splash in and out of the water. Chideock is within walking distance and Seatown is less than 1 mile away, both villages have lovely dog-friendly eateries.

This fantastic holiday cottage embraces open-plan living, creating a light and spacious area in which to socialise and enjoy meals together. From the lounge, sit back and take in the beautiful views of the garden and countryside whilst your canine chum burns off some steam on the large shared lawn. At night, you could fire up the BBQ and soak up the peace and tranquillity long into the evening, thanks to the warmth from the chimenea. A tiny brook borders the shared lawn, and to the side of the barns is a further lawn which is perfect for children’s games. The handy hallway has plenty of storage for boots and dog-walking gear.

Chideock is brimming with character and charm and, together with the neighbouring hamlet of Seatown, is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There are many footpaths and tracks to explore, winding through chocolate-box thatched cottages and out onto the wild and rugged clifftops. Fossils are frequently found along this part of the coast and, although dogs aren’t permitted on the beach at Seatown, they can join you at Eype – a fossil hunting hotspot. The lively market town of Bridport is 3 miles away and has an abundance of independent shops and boutiques to browse, as well as a great choice of dog-friendly pubs.

A well equipped, very clean and comfortable Cottage. Perfect location, easy access to beach, pubs and endless walks. Perfect for dogs and the owners were very responsive when the kettle gave up the ghost and replaced it the same day. A great place to stay

Well equipped. Very comfortable beds. Sofas a bit too squishy for an elderly like me but plenty of cushions to put under me so all fine. Lovely outlook but the weeping willow is beginning to obscure the view. Love the pair of pigeons nesting in the hedging on the patio. One egg was being carefully nestled. They were totally undeterred by our presenRead morece. Hide

2 of us stayed here, good location, short drive to Lyme Regis, West Bay and Bridport. Walks direct from cottage to Seatown / the coastal path. cottage had all you needed, everything worked, shower good, views over fields / hills. Patio doors temperamental (possibly in damp weather!), certain areas of the cottage could do with some attention, thoughRead more this didnt impact our stay. Peaceful at night with no noise, apart from the sheep! comfortable bed. Hide
