    “Lovely cottage set in the quiet town of Bere Regis, a great base to explore East Dorset.”

    The cottage was very clean and was very tastefully decorated and furnished. The bed was very comfortable. The kitchen facilities were excellent with washing machine, dishwasher and fridge freezer. Just a couple of issues. It was cold weather during our stay and although the thermostat might be suggesting 20 degrees, it was too cold to relax so we had to boost the temperature frequently.

    The cottage was very clean and was very tastefully decorated and furnished. The bed was very comfortable. The kitchen facilities were excellent with washing machine, dishwasher and fridge freezer. Just a couple of issues. It was cold weather during our stay and although the thermostat might be suggesting 20 degrees, it was too cold to relax so we had to boost the temperature frequently. The thermostat had been set overnight for 6 degrees, which was far too low. We did notice that the settings we applied reverted back to a lower/colder setting, which was irritating and simply meant we had to keep adjusting the thermostat to maintain warmth and comfort. The parking was not really ideal, as there were usually commercial vans parked up the road by the church where we were asked to park. Loading and unloading was fraught as we had to keep moving the car to make way for passing vehicles.

The property

White Cottage is a cosy cottage situated in the pretty village of Bere Regis, between the lively towns of Dorchester and Poole.

This superb, newly renovated in 2021 two-bedroom property enjoys a wealth of character, as well as contemporary features and furnishings, providing an excellent level of accommodation for a family or group of friends to enjoy this beautiful part of Dorset.

Soak up your surroundings of the quaint village before pushing open the front door to discover the immaculate sitting room, home to everything you could possibly need.

Make use of the quality kitchen appliances to create your own delicious meals before settling down with your family or friends at the dining table to pop open a bottle of bubbly and toast to a long-awaited holiday.

Afterwards, relax and unwind into your evening by sinking into the sofa and flicking through the channels of the Smart TV or simply enjoy spending time with friends and family with a drink in hand.

Once the evening has drawn to a close, make your way upstairs to find the elegant king-size bedroom, complete with quality linens and a plush duvet that is awaiting to be curled up in after an action-packed day, while along the landing you will find a single bedroom with a trundle bed, ideal for younger guests.

Completing the interior is the family bathroom, perfect for a refreshing shower after a long day of sightseeing.

Each morning, look forward to catching a breath of fresh air in the garden, where rattan furniture provides an alternative spot for enjoying your morning coffee or alfresco dining in the balmy summer evenings.

Explore your surroundings further by taking a walk into the village of Bere Regis, home to two traditional pubs serving tasty pub grub, as well as a convenience store where you can pick up any essentials.

For a greater choice of amenities, head to the nearby Saxon town of Wareham, offering a host of unique shops, fine restaurants and historical attractions such as the Wareham Town Museum and the iconic St Martin’s Church.

For those wishing to explore further, pop on your walking boots and explore one of the many countryside walks, visit the Monkey World Ape Rescue Centre for a chance to see rescued and adopted apes from all around the world, or see the magnificent war exhibitions at the Tank Museum, just five miles away.

For a day on the coast, Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door are just 11 miles away, both UNESCO World Heritage Sites, which should be high on the list of places to visit.

With so much to see and do, secure your stay at White Cottage and look forward to the adventure's that await.
