Lovely house with great views, well equipped inside and in the garden, hot tub much appreciated. Visitors should be aware that the house is on a hillside (hence the views), a 20 min walk from Bridport town centre and a 45 min walk from West Bay beach - but we were often happy to stay put enjoying the house and garden.

Lovely Dorset holiday
The property is on the outskirts of Bridport with an easy walk to West Bay across the fields - bit of a hill on the way back which is on a small road with no pavement! The house is an upside down house with the living areas getting full use of the lovely views over to the sea. Most rooms are en suite which given the COVID situation was a great bonus. Small garden, with lots of little seating areas which did make it a bit hard for us to sit outside all together. A good sized hot tub which was lovely to use in the evening although you did need to be out by 10 so not to disturb the neighbours. Well equipped, clean and the landlady was extremely helpful and prompt. An altogether thoroughly nice stay.
