Space
Lovely thatched three bedroom cottage which can sleep up to six (with a pull out single bed), a warm welcoming wood burner to keep you warm and cosy. It has a well-equipped kitchen with all the comforts that you'll need! The bathroom has a shower and bath, on the second floor and there is also a cloakroom on the ground. Enjoy summer evenings in the delightful garden and the beautiful surroundings of Evershot and all the area has to offer, with a local shop, bakers and pup. All children are welcome, and there is a travel cot and high chair available. Well behaved dogs are welcome, but we kindly ask that they are not allowed on the furniture or beds. Just a short walk away you will find yourself in Melbury Park, a beautiful deer park with a stunning Grade I listed Manor house and charming gardens. The Jurassic Coast, recently declared a World Heritage Site and the South West Coastal path are within easy reach and provide some wonderful walking opportunities. Here you will also discover the beautiful West Bay, a lovely sandy beach with a host of things to do for all ages.
Guest access
The house is mid-terrace of three and has two private parking spaces, very quiet and off the road.
Guest interaction
I live in Dorset because it's so special and as such, I am over the hill towards Cerne Abbas so I am close by if you need me.
Neighbourhood overview
The cottage is in the beautiful quiet village of Evershot and many country walks radiate from the village. Cerne Abbas with its tumescent hill carving is a couple of villages away, or you can travel further afield to Bridport with its Saturday market, Lyme Regis, or Dorchester to Thomas Hardy's cottage.
Getting around
There are some local buses but to fully enjoy Dorset transport is required.
Other things to note
Quintessential English country house, Summer Lodge Country House Hotel in Evershot is the epitome of a luxurious five-star country house hotel and spa and is a short stroll from the cottage. Afternoon tea or dinner are to be recomended.
