The ideal couples retreat, this charming single storey property is set in a tranquil spot with easy access to popular attractions including Durdle Door and Lulworth with its beautiful Cove and Castle

This welcoming property is set within the village of Winfrith Newburgh on Dorset’s beautiful Isle of Purbeck. With easy access to open countryside, there is no shortage of wonderful walking routes in the immediate area, while the Jurassic Coast is also within easy reach for those looking for prehistoric adventures.

Set across a single floor, which may be ideal for those with limited mobility, this well-placed property sleeps two guests and two canine companions, with an optional single bed available on request. The accommodation centres on an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, which creates a sociable space for you and your pack, with exposed beams providing character and a wood burner providing a warm and cosy atmosphere on cooler evenings. Outside, a separate seating area is found across the driveway which is ideal for taking your morning coffee or dining alfresco on warmer days, before retreating indoors where a double bedroom and bathroom with shower over bath awaits you.

With a local store and pub, Winfrith Newburgh puts the essentials you need for your stay within walking distance, while the village of Wool offers a wider selection of amenities 3 miles to the east. You are also close to some of the region’s iconic coastal landscapes, with the beach and rocky arch of Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove found within 4 miles of your front door and Chesil Beach (15 miles away) offering a unique coastal walk. Meanwhile, urban hounds may prefer to sniff along the picture-postcard harbour at Weymouth (11 miles west), before exploring the local shops and eateries, and splashing in the surf on the sandy beach.

the only thing that bothered me is that we paid 40 pounds for two dogs yet there was nothing for them. when we have been to other places there have been dog beds ,towels dishes and even dog toys and treats for the dogs. it isnt the end of the world but would have been nice. i also thought that there would be a fenced area for them, that wasnt immedRead moreiatly apparent from the advert. the cottage was quite nice but not the nicest we have been to from cottage holidays.

The cottage was extremely comfortable and we had a great week with the dog but would also say it would be just as good if you didnt have a dog. Owners were friendly and welcoming , when we return to Dorset we plan to see if we can stay here again

Delightful cottage, ideally situated. Beautifully equipped, sparkling clean - and most important, friendly, helpful owners. We explored for a couple of days, and spent a horribly wet, cold day in front of the fire, watching the World Cup Final. Lovely! Village shop is very well stocked. We'd go again, and definitely recommend this cottage.

WARNING TO DOG-OWNERS-We booked with you a dogs welcome cottage with no mention in your website for Riverside View that there were any restrictions on the keeping of dogs.It was only on our arrival that we found a notice stating that dogs were not allowed to be left unattended in the cottage at any time . Had this been stated in the Holiday CottageRead mores.Co.UK website at the time then we would not have booked. No mention either of building works( the erection of a double garage) .We left a day early Hide
