About this property

Beachfront Escape in Sleepy Coastal Village at Ringstead Bay

About this space:
A beautiful, newly decorated three-bedroom house on the Jurassic Coast in the quiet and secluded area of Ringstead Bay. The house can accommodate six people, it has private front and rear gardens, stunning views across the water to Weymouth and Portland, and beach access directly in front of the property. The coastal path runs right past the front of the house leading to White Nothe (aka White Nose!) and Lulworth in one direction and Osmington Mills and the local pub in the other. This is a dog friendly house and there are amazing walks to be had along the beach or on the many paths and routes in the local area

The space:
This is a newly decorated, light and airy ground floor home with three bedrooms – a master king bedroom with single day bed and ensuite shower room; another king bedroom; one twin room (one queen bed and one single bed). In addition to the ensuite bathroom, the house has another two spacious shower rooms, with enough hot water for everyone to shower after a swim in the sea!
The large open plan kitchen/living area has a brand-new kitchen with all the necessary amenities and a large range cooker; a separate utility/dishwashing area; a dining area with a table for eight people; and a seating area with a large smart television.
The house also has fast broadband with wifi, a washing machine, a dryer, parking for 5 cars, garden furniture, use of a BBQ (please clean it after use) and a selection of beach toys.

Guest access:
You will be welcomed at the start of your stay. We are available over the phone for any requests or information for the duration of your stay and will advise how to lock up when you leave.
Guests have exclusive use of the house and garden. The few bedrooms in the old house (1st floor) will be locked and will never be occupied during your stay.

Other things to note:
The home is set along the beachfront (which can be accessed by a rugged cliff path) in the secluded hamlet of Ringstead on the Jurassic Coast. The area is ideal for hiking, fossil hunting, sailing, and fishing.

There is a tiny independent shop in the village selling essentials and ice creams. Nearby Osmington Mills has a pub and cafe. Both Weymouth and Dorchester have many large supermarkets. It is not essential but it is advised to have a car if planning on getting to the local towns during your stay.

You are welcome to bring boats, there is fantastic fishing in the bay and we can advise on the best spots. Sailing is great as well. Larger boats can be taken to the beach via the slip ramp 100m from the house or in Weymouth marina. Small boats and dinghies can go down the short cliff in front of the house.

Upon prior request we can provide access to a boat and recreational water sports equipment and toys, including Stand-Up Paddleboards, to get you out onto the water - do ask for more info!
Use of these is at your own risk and we will ask for a deposit.

Host profile image
I'm retired from the world of work and have travelled the world.
I love Ringstead, having holidayed here for virtually every year of my life.
Married to Karen who, fortunately, feels the same about this magical place!
Easy going and never happier than when walking or fishing here for mackerel in the summer.
If at all possible, we like to meet our guests to help them get the most from their time here.
