This beautiful Grade II listed thatched holiday cottage, with origins dating back over 250 years, is nestled in the picturesque village of Powerstock within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty deep in the West Dorset countryside. The village is mentioned in the Doomsday book and sits at the foot of the ancient iron age fort of Eggardon Hill. There are numerous walks and cycle paths from the door.

A few minutes walk from the cottage takes you to the 15th century Norman church looking out over the valley, and just beyond is the popular Three Horse Shoes public house with excellent local food and beer (Michelin 2014 Restaurant guide). A little further on along a footpath is yet another pub (Good Pub Guide 2014).

The bustling market town of Bridport is five miles away and has many restaurants and cafes and twice weekly markets with a great array of local produce. It is the gateway town to the Jurassic Coast, the first natural World Heritage Site designated in England. The lovely cliffs at West Bay, made famous by ITV's 'Broadchurch,' are just south of Bridport with Lyme Regis and Burton Bradstock (National Trust) a short drive each way along the rugged coastline.
