Located in the hamlet of Bradford Peverell, this picturesque cottage is perfectly situated for exploring the famous Jurassic Coast, with the fossil-filled beach of Charmouth only 22 miles away. Ideal for a group of four and two four-legged friends, this cottage is surrounded by rolling countryside and seaside towns. Your canine companions are sure to make the most of the many walks and lead the way to your next adventure. Just a mile away in the pretty village of Stratton, a traditional English pub awaits, ready to welcome you and your pups for a well-earned drink after a busy day exploring the area.

This charming terraced cottage retains many original features which give it plenty of character, while the bright décor gives the property a fresh feel. Enjoy a relaxing evening in the comfy lounge with your hounds at your feet, soaking up the warmth from the wood burner. Upstairs, there are two charming bedrooms with the twin room having beautiful far-reaching views over rooftops to the countryside beyond. Mornings can be spent sipping coffee in the airy sunroom and evenings in the enclosed courtyard to the rear of the property – a great space for al fresco dining.

Venture to the white pebble beach at Lulworth Cove, 18 miles away, which has a designated area for Rover and Fido to stretch their legs. If all the sea air leaves you in need of refreshment, head a mile away from the beach to the 16th-century dog-friendly inn, serving a fabulous new menu every day. Alternatively, take the pups for a leisurely stroll around the street markets of the historic market town of Bridport, just 14 miles away from your cottage.
