    “We absolutely loved our stay at Dairy Cottage.”

    The house is lovely, clean and well located. It’s so quiet there, but really easy to get everywhere. Abbotsbury is lovely with lots of things to do. We spent a day on Burton Bradstock beach (15 mins away). The Subtropical Gardens are well worth a visit. We didn’t realise, but the bedrooms all have blackout blinds as well as curtains. As a parent, this is brilliant! Our children slept so well! The garden is lovely, and well set up for relaxing at the table whilst the children ran ...

    The house is lovely, clean and well located. It’s so quiet there, but really easy to get everywhere. Abbotsbury is lovely with lots of things to do. We spent a day on Burton Bradstock beach (15 mins away). The Subtropical Gardens are well worth a visit. We didn’t realise, but the bedrooms all have blackout blinds as well as curtains. As a parent, this is brilliant! Our children slept so well! The garden is lovely, and well set up for relaxing at the table whilst the children ran around. The house was really clean and had everything you could need to cook pretty much any meal! There’s also children’s plates etc which is a nice touch. Really dog and family friendly. We will definitely be back!

Located on a partial working farm, Dairy Cottage offers a peaceful base for up to six guests, whilst a short car journey away from the coastline.

Park up and take in the serene setting of your new abode, enjoying the views from the pet-friendly garden, a haven for alfresco mealtimes and late-night tipples under the stars.

Start your holiday with a visit to nearby Abbotsbury where you can explore the Abbotsbury Subtropical Gardens, a unique botanical garden featuring plants from all around the world or take a stroll on Abbotsbury Beach and watch the traditional Abbotsbury Swannery, the only managed colony of nesting swans in the world; in the village itself you’ll also find your nearest hub of shops, pubs, and eateries.

For those seeking a bit more adventure, why not take the Southwest Coast Path to Weymouth, taking advantage of your position in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, where you can enjoy a bite to eat on the harbour, soak up the atmosphere in the lively town centre, or visit the National Sailing Academy for a spot of windsurfing or paddle boarding.

With plenty to explore on your doorstep, Dairy Cottage is ideal for a wonderful, Dorset escape.
