This picture-postcard thatched property is set in an idyllic spot, surrounded by open countryside. The cottage sleeps six guests and two dogs and is perfect for a chilled-out holiday exploring Dorset with your favourite four-legged pals. Head to the Jurassic Coast, 3.5 miles away, to marvel at the beauty of Britain’s only natural World Heritage Site or spend a lazy afternoon pottering around the quaint markets in nearby Bridport.
The characterful cottage, with rambling creepers adorning the outside walls, is everything you’d hope for in a traditional Dorset home, with added contemporary touches for a comfortable stay. Kick off your dog-walking boots in the spacious entrance hall, before entering the beautiful lounge which is full of traditional features. On chillier evenings, light the wood burner and snuggle up whilst your furry friends stretch out in front of the fireplace. During the day, the furballs will be in their element sniffing around the pretty lawned garden, whilst you pour yourself a glass of wine on the terrace or sink into the relaxing hot tub. Alternatively, challenge each other to a table tennis match in the games room - a fun way to while away a few hours.
You’ll find something for everyone at the picturesque town of Bridport (3 miles). Head over on market day (Wednesday and Saturday) to grab yourself some fantastic local produce and immerse yourself in the adorable Dorset culture. Afterwards, potter around the harbour with the pups and enjoy fish and chips on a bench whilst watching the colourful boats bobbing up and down. Eype Beach, just 3.5 miles away, is perfect woof walking territory. Tucked away under the towering peak of Golden Cap, it’s a magical spot, particularly at sunset. What’s more, dogs are welcome all year and the kids will love hunting for fossils.
