The property

Located in the picturesque village of Upwey, Wishing Well Cottage is a charismatic stone-built dwelling.

Step inside the traditional sitting room and admire the charm of the exposed stone walls that surround an attractive fire as you relax on the plush sofa, catching up on all your favourite shows.

Make your way into the homey kitchen/diner featuring all the essential appliances and utensils needed for whipping up a hearty home-cooked meal before gathering at the dining table and mapping out your adventures for the duration of your stay.

Take in the fresh Dorset air as you delight in a warm cup of tea out on the patio or make the most of warm summer night’s with dinner alfresco at the pretty outdoor dining space.

Climb the staircase to the first floor and discover two bright and airy double bedrooms along with a tranquil bathroom, perfect for indulging in a deep soak in the tub as you unwind following an action-packed day exploring very best that Dorset has to offer.

Grab a bite to eat at the Wishing Well cafe and discover the iconic village wishing well as you embark on a scenic stroll through the Wey Valley Chalk Hills and along the waters of the River Wey that runs right through the heart of the village.

Visit the imposing St Lawrence Church to see the historical 12th century tower, before grabbing a refreshing pint and a bite to eat at the friendly local pub.

Spend your days soaking up the sun at the vibrant seaside town of Weymouth, home to the famous SEALIFE Centre, or take in the magnificent views of the English channel as you explore the high clifftops and sandy trails of the West Dorset Heritage Coast.

About the location

UPWEY

Dorchester 5 miles; Weymouth 4 miles.

The picturesque village of Upwey lies just four miles north of Weymouth, nestling beneath the Dorset Ridgeway, and takes its name from the shallow chalk stream, the River Wey, which bubbles up here from an underground spring. Upwey is well-known for its Wishing Well, where George III once sought the benefits of the natural spring water. It is now a delightful tea room, serving lunches and traditional cream teas. There are a number of footpaths leading directly from the village to miles of unspoilt countryside, and close by is the market town of Dorchester, Thomas Hardy’s ’Casterbridge’. An easy drive or bus ride takes you to the popular seaside resort of Weymouth offering visitors glorious golden sandy beaches, excellent watersports facilities and a bustling harbour. An attractive village location and an ideal place to escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Note: No children under the age of 6.
Note: The garage is not for guests' use.
