About this property

Jurassic Cottage is a comfortable and cosy stone cottage situated in the pretty village of Portesham with its nearby pub, farm shop and cafe, and close to the famous Jurassic Coast.

Located in the popular village of Portesham, the cottage is the perfect base for exploring all the delights of Dorset including Chesil Beach, Abbotsbury and the nearby county town of Dorchester. Hardy's Monument with its spectacular panoramic views and great walks is a only a short walk from the cottage, as is the nearby Valley of Stones.

On the ground floor of the cottage is a well-appointed sitting room, kitchen and dining room, conservatory and a cloakroom. Upstairs are two bedrooms, a king-sized double, and a twin bedroom looking out over the rear garden, and a family bathroom with shower.

The open garden slopes up the hill and the garden terrace affords wonderful views of the surrounding fields and rolling Dorset hills.

There are excellent walks and cycle paths from the door of the cottage, and the South Dorset Ridgeway Path runs across the ridge a mile above the cottage.

    This cottage is very nice and the customer service is very good. Only let down by the walk to and from your vehicle, fine for most but if you have difficulty in walking it's not. Garden has some very steep steps and could do with a tidy up. Only minor things as I would go there again.

    The cottage was cosy and comfortable, great location in a beautiful area. Lovely garden and walks from the house. We had a lovely time and would visit again.

    Quirky old cottage set in lovely village location. Plenty of space if four of you staying. Huge main bedroom with smaller twin. Small living room, dinning area attached to the kitchen with additional seating area with toilet. Sun trap in the garden seating area if weather favourable. Good base for exploring the area including walks from the back gate. Parking can be a problem as narrow lane but plenty of space a few hundred yards away.
