Superb holiday cottage near Weymouth and the Dorset coast, this desirable property is a great prospect for a family looking for a modern home-from-home. Lovely quiet village location, in Osmington, close to country walks and handy amenities.
With a flame effect gas fired "wood burner" for cosy nights in, and an enclosed garden where you and your hound can enjoy al fresco meals, this delightful stone cottage offers comfortable accommodation with enough space for six guests and one canine companion. It’s 1 mile from the South West Coast Path, perfect for walkies with your four-legged friend, while for a special meal all together, the dog-friendly pub in Osmington Mills is only a 1.5-mile drive away.
Put outdoor gear and your dog’s toys into the handy cupboard, then start preparing dinner in the light and bright kitchen. There’s a music system next door in the dining room, so you can have music on when you sit down to eat, and don’t forget to put down a dog bowl by your chair. That way, your hound will be happy and content to curl up by your feet after dinner. The stylish lounge has plenty of human seating in the form of big comfy sofas, and more than enough room for a few of your top dog’s best beds. Watch TV, or if the evening is warm, open the garden doors for a spot of stargazing with a hot drink in hand. Outside there’s a lovely summerhouse for you to shelter in. The pretty and homely decor continues upstairs, where you can soak under a hot shower before falling into a soft bed.
In nearby Weymouth there are a range of attractions which welcome the whole pack. With Lassie on a lead you can explore the intricate sculptures of Sandworld (3.5 miles) which returns with a new theme every summer, and they can put their nose to the ground to sniff their way through the passages of Nothe Fort (6 miles). When you’re done exploring inside the fort, head out into the open air to admire the sweeping sea views.
