Upstairs There are three comfortable bedrooms on the first floor, two twin bedrooms and a super king 6ft wide bed with en-suite bathroom.

The lounge has patio doors which lead through to the large garden with sweeping lawns with hedges on either side to provide privacy. Attracts birds and wild animals to the rear of the property is a wooded area.

Ringstead Bay is famous for its sunrises and sunsets and the view of these from Pitt Cottage is a breath-taking sight. The Bay is owned partially by the National Trust so most of the area is designated as outstandingly beautiful, is unspoilt and highly sought after. The coastal path stretching from Weymouth to Lulworth offers the enthusiastic rambler a fantastic walk to remember. A leisurely stroll will take you to a picnic area with seasonal shop where you are able to purchase your daily paper, essential provisions and enjoy in a nice cup of tea accompanied by freshly caught seafood sandwiches.

The nearby resort town of Weymouth is a relatively short drive away and will provide you with high street shops and entertainment if required.

Directly out of one of Thomas Hardy's novels Pitt Cottage is a picture postcard thatched cottage.

Can be booked in conjunction with The Transmitter Bunker (1131689) which lies within the grounds.

Ringstead Bay is an unspoilt pebble beach on the Jurassic coastline surrounded by farmland and striking cliffs. The original village mentioned in the doomsday book no longer exists, but there is now a small vibrant community nestled at the back of the bay in a variety of unique houses. Enjoy walking the South West Coast path or meander through the woodland walks, whatever your Choice this is a gorgeous place to be outside. When you are ready to explore further afield, you will find Lulworth Cove and Durdle door a short 11 miles away and Weymouth with it’s beautiful beach and plentiful restaurants and cafes 7 miles to the west. The Bovington Tank Museum, Monkey World Rescue, and Tyneham Village all offer varied and interesting days out just a short drive from Ringstead, presuming you can tear yourselves away from the unspoilt beach.

    A beautiful location with splendid views of the countryside and sea. It is cosy, warm and very comfortable. The only suggestions I would make is providing something to make the floor in the shower less slippery and maybe warning of the the steep stairs. Also an explanation about the lighting system as we couldn't manage to get the lights on in the far bedroom. But really, this is a splendid cottage. Thank you!

    Aided by some good weather. Views are stunning. Very comfortable and fairly well equipped. Little confused re recycling but apart from that we had a great week. Would book again if the price doesn’t rise to much.

    Large rooms and grounds with spectacular views toward Ringstead Bay. The long driveway to the cottage and the adjacent fields are ideal for dog walking, cows permitting. If you want a 'plastic' 5 star hotel this may not be for you, but if you are looking for a holiday to relax in comfort Pitt Cottage is THE place. We have already booked again for May 2024. From our experience Pitt Cottage is competitively priced for the location alone. You know what they say - Location, Location, Location. Beryl & Martyn Adams
