This large, country property sits just a stick’s throw from the beach outside the village of Ringstead. Surrounded by nearly an acre of garden, it is perfect for a doggy-friendly holiday. Sleeping eight guests across five bedrooms, and with one four-legged family member also welcome, it is ideal for a family break on the beautiful Dorset Coast.
This lovely, traditional property is welcoming and comfortable. The large, bright lounge/dining room is a pleasant space to relax in after a day at the beach, and with patio doors leading directly into the garden, is perfect for letting Fido out to stretch his legs. On chillier evenings, the open fire will soon have your furry friend snoozing at your feet. The kitchen is well-equipped with a handy breakfast table for your post-walk coffee, and there is a covered yard outside where you can leave muddy boots or rinse off sandy paws. The bedrooms, with their stripped wooden floors and traditional furniture, are furnished with crisp fresh bedlinen and splashes of colour, creating a jolly holiday feel. Outside, the large, enclosed garden is perfect for games of fetch or an al fresco meal and has a gate that leads directly onto the coastal path.
Further afield, the Lulworth Estate (11 miles) welcomes canine visitors to the famous cove and Durdle Door as well as to Lulworth Castle and Park, which offers acres of grounds to snuffle around in and is the ideal spot for a picnic. Visit the mesmerizing Blue Pool at Wareham (17 miles) where you can enjoy a walk through the surrounding woodland, or drive down to the Isle Portland (13 miles) to see Portland Bill Lighthouse and visit the neighbouring Chesil Beach.
