Overview
Property code: DC068

Enjoy views of stunning Corfe Castle from the comfort of your gorgeous cottage, nestled in the picturesque village of Langton Matravers.

Surrounded by the Purbeck Hills, this gorgeous cottage enjoys views of stunning Corfe Castle. With the countryside brimming with gentle footpaths and lanes, as well as towering cliffs and rolling hills, there are walks to suit all four-legged and two-legged energy levels! So put on the walking boots, pack a few treats and head out to explore the wonders of Dorset.

A cosy cottage for four plus one pup, you’ll be struck by how homely this lovely property is. Get creative in the kitchen and savour a delicious meal in the dining room. In the evening, spend time relaxing and cuddled up in front of the flickering open fire, and enjoy a good book or board game as your canine chum has a well-deserved snooze after a day of fetch. Upstairs you’ll find a lovely double as well as a room with bunk beds, ideal for children. Outside there is an enclosed garden to enjoy a drink or a meal alfresco whilst your dog plays safely. South-facing and catching the best of the sun, a lazy late afternoon in this sheltered spot is the perfect way to round off a busy day.

The pretty village of Langton Matravers has a shop and pub, both within half a mile of this lovely cottage. From your doorstep, walk to the famous Dancing Ledge (1.5 miles) and then on to Anvil Point (2 miles). For a dog-friendly cafe, pay a visit to the model village in Corfe Castle (4 miles), and for heathland walks try the Hartland Moor Nature Reserve (6 miles). For seclusion off the beaten track, head to St Aldhelm’s Chapel (3.5 miles), a beautifully lonely spot with fantastic views towards Lulworth Cove and beyond.

We loved Hazelnut cottage, it was so comfortable and had everything we needed. It was very clean and well maintained. The biscuits and milk on arrival were welcome and a nice touch. The views from the lovely double bedroom were great (when the cloud and fog lifted!) It was a beautiful location and we walked to the dinosaur footsteps (about 30 mins Read morewith a 6 and 1 year old). The road to the cottage is very potholed, but if you take it slowly its ok. We would stay again and recommend it. Hide

The cottage is brilliant. We were 4 friends and felt perfectly at home. There is all the needed equipment for cooking. We did not use the garden as it was a bit cold but it is really cute and it allowed us to keep our bike safe.

As we were by bike we order food online and got the delivery on the day we arrived so perfect. We will definitely come back. Hide

This is a cosy and comfortable cottage with good facilities, well equipped kitchen with lovely views. Although having the microwave on the fridge/freezer I found quite dangerous. We were also disappointed that the cottage wasn't decorated for Christmas as promised, and we had to purchase additional wood to be able to use the open fire.

A lovely cottage with great views and in a quiet location down the end of a bumpy lane. Plenty of walks right from the cottage. Be careful with the on/off control in the bath/shower - it's very stiff and will blast you unexpectedly. The bathroom basin is also rather high and makes life awkward for shorter people.

Overall a lovely property. The view across the valley is stunning and the track is fine with care. The bed is very comfortable and the property is well equipped. However, the kitchen requires a thorough deep clean and a starter pack of consumables should be provided.
