Traditional Dorset Cottages

Dorset is the ideal setting for a holiday with its stunning and varied landscapes ranging from rolling countryside to miles of sandy beaches.



The coast and countryside of Dorset has changed little since the times of Thomas Hardy, with scores of pretty villages, traditional pubs and miles and miles of breathtaking coastal scenery. The unique and dramatic Jurassic coastline is so special it has been honoured with natural World Heritage status, with UNESCO describing the site as "an outstanding example, representing a major stage of the earth's history and the record of life".



All of the cottages are ideally situated for walkers and lovers of peaceful countryside and the coast, with many walks from the villages. The South West Coastal Path, which stretches for 95 miles from St Aldhelms Head near Swanage to Exmouth, is accessible from all of the properties, with some having direct access.



The properties on this website are all privately owned, well cared for and beautifully presented. The size of the properties varies, with some sleeping just two people while others can house up to nine people so whether you are looking for a family holiday or a romantic weekend in the country you'll find a property to suit.
