    “Fantastic week in this lovely comfortable accommodation!”

    Pleasant 5 minute-ish walk into West Bay (walking past the playpark and where the car boot sale is on Sundays), longer walk to Bridport (via roads or fields) or along the cliffs if you fancy it. Well stocked kitchen, we've got into the habit of bringing our own large pans and sharp knives but for the first time ever it wasn't necessary as they had everything we needed - pans, knives, bottle openers, loads of glasses and mugs and tons of storage space. Highlights are the view from the ...

    Pleasant 5 minute-ish walk into West Bay (walking past the playpark and where the car boot sale is on Sundays), longer walk to Bridport (via roads or fields) or along the cliffs if you fancy it. Well stocked kitchen, we've got into the habit of bringing our own large pans and sharp knives but for the first time ever it wasn't necessary as they had everything we needed - pans, knives, bottle openers, loads of glasses and mugs and tons of storage space. Highlights are the view from the conservatory of course, we spent most evenings out there or in the garden with a glass of wine admiring the fields and greenery. Plenty of seats in the front room, in fact the kids have added to your DVD library, but it was lovely being able to put a film on for them in this room (or join them for a few games) but having a choice to sit in the conservatory for some adult space. We will definitely visit again! Feedback notes: There are some loose door handles around the house / left back hob doesn't work, and none will ignite without using matches (luckily we brought some with us) / Missing window keys! We visited during a heatwave and we were unable to open the windows in a few of the bedrooms and it was a bit stifling / Plus please update your instructions for bin days, as it has the wrong day in the print out above the bin! I presume the previous guests struggled as their rubbish wasn't collected, which meant it was already nearly full when we arrived. We did get them out on time in our week, but the bin men didn't take one of the bins away so it'll be full for the next visitors too!

About the location

WEST BAY

Bridport 1.5 miles; Lyme Regis 11 miles.

West Bay, fondly known as “The Gateway To The Dorset Jurassic Coast” and popularised by the TV series Broadchurch, lies close to the glorious sandstone cliffs of Golden Cap, at the western end of the dramatic pebbly Chesil Beach. This is a wonderful seaside location, perfect for family holidays, offering scenic walks along the South West Coastal Path with beautiful clifftop views and beaches and the Brit Valley Way taking you north into the rolling hills of Dorset, as well as ample opportunities to try your hand at sea fishing, golf, fossil hunting, boating. Visit the nearby Palmers Brewery, over 225 years old and the only thatched brewery in the UK, the homes on Thomas Hardy and TE Lawrence, The Tank Museum at Bovington or the Naval Air Museum at Yeovil. Only 1.5 miles away is the vibrant market town of Bridport, featured in the TV series, River Cottage, with two weekly markets and festivals throughout the year. The area holds plenty of attractions to suit the whole family! Just a short drive takes you to the picturesque seaside resort of Lyme Regis, the lovely sub-tropical gardens and swannery at Abbotsbury, or the golden sands of Weymouth. This wonderful location makes an ideal base for a great family holiday.

Note; There is a Good Housekeeping Bond of £450 for this property.
