“The photo of the exterior of the property does not show the close proximity of the neighbouring properties.”

...

The public car park is only metres away from the boundary of the property and privacy is compromised. Also the beautiful views can be obscured especially with large camper type vehicles parking on the seaward side of the property. The access road (Mount Lane) is very narrow and could (in high season) be frustratingly tiresome with meeting oncoming traffic. On the plus side the property was extremely comfortable and clean with all home comforts. The owners made contact to ensure all was well with our stay.

“Our expectations were exceeded only by the fact that our holiday was not cancelled due to local lockdown and did not have to fight to get any money paid back through Sykes.”

Mr Allen August 2020

“Beauitful coastal cottage in a fab location.”

Perfectly appointed with everything we needed, with the added bonus of some welcome treats and personal message. Could benefit from Wi-fi, but otherwise a lovely homely beach facing cottage, personally cared for & cleaned by the owners. Would highly recommend a stay here.

Mr Smith October 2019

“Superb location, we had two very windy days and it was exhilarating with the waves crashing and the wind howling but the chalet was very well insulated from the wind and rain.”

internally the chalet was very well appointed and had everything to make our stay extremely comfortable, we would definitely revisit. As an observation, I would expect it could be quite challenging getting up and down the lane in high summer.

“The chalet & its location are excellent.”

So good in fact that I have already reserved it for two weeks next year. What was really nice is that we had the opportunity to meet the owners whilst we were there. Stayed August 2016

Mr Aston

“We had a wonderful time!”

Stayed there twice this year - never been back to the same place twice before. The chalet is homely, clean, practical and very sweet, and the views out over the sea are fabulous. At busy times there are a few cars parked in front but this didn't bother us. The walks from here are lovely - just a gentle mile walk over the hill to West Bay too. Highly recommend this chalet.

“The property was perfect for us, clean, comfortable and in a great location.”

We couldn't fault it in any way

“Sandpiper Chalet was more than we could have hoped for.”

Mr Hagley

“Excellent accommodation this is the second time we have been and have booked again for next year.”

It would have been lovely to have had wi fi but I think due to the location of the property that could be a little difficult. We went to Bridport to pick up messages emails etc, which was no problem at all. Wonderful chilling holiday can't wait to return :)

Mr Andy Vick

“Thoroughly enjoyable week would recommend the location to others.”

- Mr Andy Vick,
Mr Hagley

“The only little niggle is that there is no wi fi at the cottage.”

But apart from that the cottage is excellent, and the proof of that is that we have been back 3 times already to the cottage in the past couple of years :)

“A very cosy Chalet.”

Well equipped and very clean. We didn't miss the missing wi fi. A absolutely good adress for a Holiday! Also a warm welcome with a bottle of wine and buiscuits. Well worth its price. Absolutely recommendable! Stayed August/September 2015

“Lovely chalet and location, everything we needed and more was provided.”

“Again this property was excellent and we have booked it again this year - stayed August 2017”

“As a family of four, we all loved the Sandpiper and Eype.”

The accommodation was spotlessly clean and the vendors provided everything you could possibly need. As soon as you walked in it felt home from home, I didn`t need to clean or check the beds as I would normally do upon entering a holiday accommodation. You could tell the moment you walked in it was just perfect and I/we felt relaxed instantly. The location was perfect with easy assess to the pebbled beach, star glazing at night spent at the beach or on the baloney at the chalet. Breakfast sitting on the baloney, BBQ`s, people watching, just perfect. My 15 year old daughter found a ammonite fossil on Eype beach, this made her feel proud. The local supermarket was close by. We had such a wonderful time - stayed August 2016

“Very clean & well equipped accommodation in a truly wonderful location.”

Beds are so comfortable and the surroundings so quiet that a good night's sleep is almost guaranteed! The kitchen has everything anyone could need & the shower room is lovely. I would thoroughly recommend this property to anyone looking for a quiet & comfortable stay on the beautiful Dorset coast. Stayed April 2017

- Mrs Lindsay Ship,
Mr Andrew Hutchinson

“We met the owner's on arrival.”

They were very nice and polite. On entering the property, we were amazed. So clean and well furnished with views to die for. We were left a lovely welcome gift. The location is lovely and quiet and off the beaten track. It was just idyllic. Would highly recommend for any couple looking for seclusion - stayed September 2017

“His was our third stay at Sandpiper and yet again everything was superb.”

The location is second to none and there is everything inside the chalet to make it a real home from home. So good in fact we have just booked it again for next year.

“It was lovely and so clean which is very important and you can see the care that goes into making it so nice for guests thank you to the owners again - stayed April 2018.”

“Lovely clean and spacious chalet .”

Had everything you could need for for a comfortable holiday . There was a nice touch of a welcome pack of a bottle of wine and some biscuits. Stayed May 2018

- Mrs Christine Obrien,
Mrs Susan Pearson

“The chalet was immaculate with all the equipment being of an excellent standard.”

We couldn't fault the property & felt it was one of the best holiday properties we have ever stayed in. Stayed May 2018

“Absolutely perfect in all respects.”

Stayed July 2018.

- Ms Louise Shiels,
Mrs Joanne Bailey

“The chalet is spotlessly clean and very well equipped.”

I would definitely recommend staying here. Stayed July 2018.

- Mrs Joanne Bailey,
Mr Steve Holloway

“This was the fourth time that my wife and I have stayed at Sandpiper Chalet, and my son and his partner's third.”

I would say that in itself is a good testament to the standard of this holiday property. Whilst the owners have made some changes over the last two years this is in order to maintain consistency to the high quality of the internal decor etc. Also there is everything you need inside the chalet for either a short or long stay. The location is second to none, and whilst having an outstanding view of the sea it is within easy reach of all the local amenities. We shall definitely be returning again next year. Stayed June 2018

The property

Sandpiper Chalet is a beautiful and comfortable holiday home with stunning sea views in the small seaside village of Eype, two miles from Bridport. This comfortable well-equipped property is situated only 50 metres from the beach which is good for fishing.

Inside there is a light, airy contemporary living space which has been thoughtfully furnished.

The beds are so comfortable and the surroundings so quiet that a good night's sleep is almost guaranteed.

If you want complete relaxation, you may wish to sit on the patio area and enjoy the surrounding views and tranquillity or watch the sea from the comfort of the living area, or even your bed. Seconds away is a beautiful pebble and sand beach backed by impressive cliffs, including Golden Cap, the highest cliff on the South coast and you may recognise it from the hit TV series 'Broadchurch'!

The chalet is located in the sleepy coastal village of Eype which has the benefit of a good local pub the New Inn, serving a good choice of food and a fine pint of ale.

There is also a seasonal shop.

The village with its narrow winding roads and traditional pastoral buildings has a feel of years gone by and on a holiday here you may feel transported to a less frantic, more relaxed era.

With the Jurassic Coast on your doorstep and the sea directly in front of you, along with the coast path, this is ideally located for some hearty walks to nearby West Bay in one direction and Charmouth in the other which is famous for fossil hunting.

The market town of Bridport is only two miles away where you can find well-known high-street stores, antiques and collectables, as well as a regular farmers' market showcasing the best of Dorset produce.

This lovely chalet is a wonderful retreat for couples or a small family to have a seaside holiday close to the beach.

About the location

Eype

Eype sits on one of the most dramatic sections of the Jurassic Coastline, and famously features one of ITV’s series Broadchurch’s most iconic locations. We’ll leave you guessing as to which one until you visit. The beach at Eype is a steeply shelving pebble beach that is dog friendly all year round and just 3 miles from Bridport and 4 from West Bay, where many other Broadchurch locations can be viewed, as well enjoying local fish and chips on the harbour side and ice creams on the sea front. Bridport offers all the high street amenities you will need along with a much-coveted antiques and collectables market. Golden Cap, the highest point in Dorset, sits on the South West Coast path and is just 4 miles from Eype, although it’s the highest point there are moderate routes to walk to the top, where spectacular far reaching views along the coast will be your reward.

Note: max 4 people. Note: no children under the age of 6. Note: no WiFi.
