Cuckoo Cottage is a sleek contemporary cottage attached to the owner’s own lovely home, and it’s the perfect spot for a romantic getaway in the west of Dorset.
As you pull onto the front of the property, take in the beautiful countryside scenery that you’ll be able to sit amongst in the garden, with extensive rolling hills, it’s a wonderful backdrop to compliment this equally pretty property.
Step through the front door of the cream cottage and into the open-plan living space, covering the whole ground floor.
It boasts a spacious combination of a kitchen, sitting and dining room, with ample seating for you to kick back and unwind.
There’s a sofa for relaxed evenings and a dining table for you to share a romantic meal when you’re not exploring the local cuisine of Dorset.
Upstairs is a large bedroom, fit with a lavish king-size bed and sloping windows, you’ll be able to watch the sun shine to the rain pour; no matter the weather, this room is the perfect hideaway to spend lazy Sunday afternoons after a week of exploring.
In the summer months, the garden is the ideal spot to soak up the sun, with lovely seating on the raised patio above the lawn, enjoy food bought from the local town markets for lunch as you watch the sun set.
Once you’ve explored the markets held twice weekly within the town, spend an evening at Palmer’s Brewery, offering tours and tasting, this spot serves as an excellent anniversary gift.
The town hosts a variety of festivals throughout the summer months including the popular agricultural Melplash Show and for a more upbeat vibe, the Jurassic Fields Music Festival.
Head down to coast and visit West Bay where much of the TV series Broadchurch was filmed.
Spend a lazy day on the beach or join the South West Coast Path and explore the magnificent gold cliffs of Jurassic Coast.
