An enchanting stone cottage in Worth Matravers, one of the many pretty villages scattered across the Jurassic Coast. Ideal base for walkers and cyclists, this dog- and family-friendly cottage features bright and spacious living areas, a decked area and a large, south-facing garden boasting wonderful rural views.

The semi-detached cottage is set off a quiet country road that winds its way through picturesque countryside towards the coast. The house is finished to a high standard, with large, bright rooms decorated with colourful and characterful soft furnishings across both floors. The open-plan lounge is the ideal place to curl up with loved ones with the dog at heel, in between hearty meals prepared in the neighbouring kitchen and served in the dining room, only a few paw prints away. A shower room with underfloor heating and a single bedroom are also on the ground floor. There are three further bedrooms on the first floor - a king-size bedroom home to an attractive Victorian fireplace; a double bedroom; and a twin bedroom. A family bathroom nearby awaits those in need of long indulgent soaks. Outside in the south-facing garden, a decked area accessible via the kitchen is made for alfresco meals, and there’s plenty of room on the lawn for dog-friendly children’s games.

The Jurassic Coast, a World Heritage Site, is a stunning stretch of shoreline punctuated by pretty villages, dog-friendly beaches and miles of footpaths and trails. Worth Matravers is home to dog-friendly shops, cafes and pubs, with the rugged beach at Winspit only 1.5 miles away. Dogs are welcome at Corfe Castle (4 miles) and are part of the furniture at the coastal town of Swanage (3.5 miles).

Seaview was a really cosy cottage, with views of the sea from the huge garden. Plenty of seating, and pretty flowerbeds. The beds were very comfortable, and plenty of seating in the lounge. The village was peaceful, with a pub just a 5 minute walk away. Plenty of places to visit a short drive away. A little treat was the local 'Honest Box' cake sheRead mored sales, just 2 doors away! We will definitely return. Hide

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Seaview. The house was warm, clean, well equipped and there were lovely views of the sea in the distance. The garden was well tended although some of the bushes could do with cutting back to make a lovely view of the sea even lovelier! All in all, we had a superb holiday here and would happily make a return visit.

We had a wonderful stay at Seaview Cottage. Quality furnishings and beds. Really comfy. Garden was exceptional. Banjo our cairn loved it and spent 90% of his day in garden and watching the blackbirds. We have had many holidays in Dorset and this is our favourite. We have booked to return in September. Swanage was a real find for us and Corfe CastleRead more and Wareham too. We found shops in Swanage and Wareham and a takeaway chinese. Loved Worth Matravers and the sea views. Thankyou Honor. Hide
