Gorgeous little cottage in a beautiful area. Kitchen well equipped, bed is very comfort and lots of storage despite the size of the cottage. I gave 4 stars because the toilet needs some attention as it doesn't flush properly. Other than that everything was really good.

Comfortable well provisioned cottage. Steep narrow stairs tricky especially at the top due to sharp turn and low ceiling. A warning notice ought to be displayed. Very nice area with several places worth a visit e.g. Lyme Regis, West Bay, Portland, and Swanage. Sherborne Abbey also worth a look.Very narrow lanes to reach the cottage. Unfortunately the week we were there two of the shorter lanes were closed presumably for repair work so we were obliged to use a much longer and very narrow lane to access property
