Dorset Croft - a country cottage in beautiful West Dorset

Dorset Croft sits in the heart of stunning West Dorset countryside (Dorset AONB). This idyllic setting still allows you to easily reach everything you will want, to enjoy your country holiday exactly as you wish.

You might have spent the day out walking the network of paths we have crossing West Dorset or enjoying the challenge of the South West Coast Path. Cyclists can lose themselves in the lanes that wind their way across West Dorset and into Devon. Walkers and cyclists alike can take off straight from the door and at the end of the day dog walkers and cyclists have a spot to wash down outside with a ‘BikeTrap’ secure bike storage point for the cyclists peace of mind and a waterproof dog bed for your dog to ease out of the days exertions.

For the days when you want a destination you could head to Lyme Regis, Forde Abbey, West Bay, Charmouth for fossil hunting, Abbotsbury Swannery for the signets in Spring, Mapperton House, local vineyards or cider farms and very many more lovely and varied places.

Wherever you have spent your day, you can prepare your well earned dinner in the full sized kitchen, or Beaminster and Bridport where there are many pubs, bars, cafes and restaurants, are just a few miles away. The New Inn pub in Stoke Abbott village has re-opened.

Dorset Croft has the Jubilee Trail crossing its land and so walkers can get straight on this and head for the nearby Lewesdon Hill and Pilsdon Pen – the two highest points in Dorset which have the most fantastic views. From Pilsdon Pen the view encompasses almost the entire Dorset coast from Portland to Lyme Bay. For a hattrick of Dorset high spots, Golden Cap is the highest point on the South Coast with gorgeous views along the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site.

The Dorset Croft holiday let is a spacious and bright first floor annexe with its own parking, entrance and roof terrace area. There are views to the countryside from all windows and plenty of space to relax and get comfortable. The bedroom has a kingsize bed and an external door that takes you to the roof deck – a lovely spot for breakfast or an evening glass of something whilst you look at the stars and listen to the owls. The whole property is recently refurbished and provides lovely holiday accommodation for you, maybe with your dog, to enjoy the wonderful countryside and coast we are so lucky to have.
