About this property
Perched in a tranquil location in the Dorset AONB in West Lulworth, is this charming two-bedroom property, Hill View. Spread across two floors with off-road parking and an enclosed garden to relish the beautiful surroundings, Hill View welcomes three guests for the idyllic coastal getaway. Cross the threshold into your new home-from-home and descend to the lower-ground floor to discover a full-equipped kitchen furnished with all the necessary appliances required to make your stay a success; reminisce on memories created or catch up with loved ones over a feast and bottle of bubbly at the dining table in the living/dining room or move to the plush seating to watch a movie. If you prefer to spend your evenings alfresco, venture to the enclosed garden and delight in a beverage of choice as you plan the rest of your adventure. When the night draws to a close, choose from one of two beautifully-appointed bedrooms on the ground-floor to catch your sleep in, hosting a double or single bed, plenty of storage and pretty views, Hill View is guaranteed to curate a homely atmosphere for all. Completing the ground-floor is a sleek bathroom, boasting a tub so you can indulge a long soak at the end of a fun-filled day, and an overhead shower so you begin your mornings feeling fresh. Amble into the local town which hosts a range of amenities such as a convenience store where you can stock up on the essentials, and a welcoming pub, The Castle Inn, where you can delight in a hearty meal and refreshing pint. When you’re ready to explore, head to Lulworth Cove, famous for its unique geology and landforms, visitors can discover the remains of an ancient, submerged forest from Jurassic times, or head to Lulworth Castle, a magnificent building dating back to the 17th-century and steeped in history. Be sure to visit the seaside town of Weymouth and learn more about its marine life at SEA LIFE CENTRE or travel by car to Bournemouth for Bournemouth Pier and seafront. Explore the wonders of Dorset with a stay at Hill View.
West Lulworth is one of the most photographed places in the UK and has some of the most impressive geological features along the Jurassic coast. It really is a must to see Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door, which are located in the centre of this region. There are many little eateries and beachside shacks in Lulworth Cove that serve fresh local seafood, ice cream, and other delectables. There are also several restaurants and bars to select from. The construction of the cove and Durdle Door as well as the Jurassic history of the area are explained in the Lulworth estate information centre. If you grow weary of the Cove and clifftop treks, Lulworth Castle, Tyneham Village, and Corfe Castle are only a short drive away and provide another look at some more recent history. The village still maintains many of its thatched homes and exudes a genuine sense of a rural retreat because it is located in such a unique environment.

Toilet very slow to fill. Boiler very noisy had to shut doors when it was running on the evening. Patio door was hard to open & close, difficulty in locking & unlocking. All windows were very dirty on outside, had obviously not been done all winter, plus some double glazed units had blown. In the evening,the TV would switch itself off in the middle of the program we were watching. The duvet on the double bed was far too thick so we had trouble sleeping..an all seasons duvet would have been better so we could choose the warmth level. It was ideally located for lovely dog walks. We had a lovely meal in the pub which was walking distance. The area was really quiet, no traffic noise, dogs barking etc etc .

Loved sitting in the garden looking out to the hills. The suggestions I have are as follows 1) toilet only half flushes and there is a constant drip into the bowl which needs addressing 2) single bed a bit uncomfortable and double bed duvet too thick for the summer, so I slept without it. 3) kitchen could do with another knife for cutting vegetables, and also couldnât find any container to use with the microwave, eg to heat soup/beans etc. a Pyrex jug would be perfect.

Lovely sunny garden, off road parking, very quiet location in a picturesque village. Nice rural view from the garden .Comfortable bed and nice quality bedding and towels.. Plenty of nice eating places nearby ....no need to drive anywhere in the evenings. Will definitely book again if and when we return to lovely Lulworth.
