“Superb location with a breathtaking view of the beach.”

There are so many things to do like going strawberry picking with my children, going to Charmouth beach to see the fossil exhibition and having a splendid time at the Sandy Swanage beach. We made some great friends with the people living in the chalet next door to us and had lots of fun together. This chalet had all the facilities and resources we needed and had a nice bakery/cafe just a few minutes away. We hope to come again! -The Sinha Family.

“It being at least about our 13th or 14th year running we were not disappointed.”

Arrived on a hot, end of sunny afternoon and beautiful flowers were the first thing I noticed, thankyou. Very clean, as usual. But as usual we hated the plumbing! Very small wash hand basin in the bathroom, taps which were stiff to use and ridiculous plug, difficult to put in secularly and take out again. Ditto uneasy tap to use in kitchen sink, ditto plug I seem to remember. Strange only two garden chairs in a four person chalet. Don't mind if yo want to publish feedback.

“A shower mat for the shower and a handle would be useful as you have to climb into the bath, this would assist older people.”

Besides that the stay was great, very comfortable and homely, loved every minute of our stay!

“Views , peaceful, great place to stay, nothing to much trouble.”

“Every thing as we usually have been finding it over the last 12 years of coming.”

However, one thing is a problem, that is both the bathroom and kitchen area taps and plug holes are a real pain to use. Bath room plug hole plug is a problem to loosen/remove, taps slow and awkward to use, ditto kitchen sink, again taps not easy to move, what if someone has arthritic fingers? Plugs would be preferable with chain. However, as you will realise, we will probably be hoping to come again!

“Lovely chalet in a cracking spot down a very narrow road.”

Siesta has the best view on the park being the only one with a clear view over to Portland Bill. Lovely varied beach at the bottom of the hill. Chalet layout well thought out and nicely furnished. Could do with a bit more crockery and cutlery, would have been a pain for 4, just about ok for us 2. Maybe a Covid thing? Otherwise we’ll equipped and yes, it has wi-fi!! Boris Johnson joining instructions: park to the left of the chalet... unless you are in a car in which case park to the right of the chalet which is the left of the chalet when you’re in it. Look, just park on the east side below the chalet where the washing line is.

The property

Siesta Chalet is one of only 13 chalets at this village edge location in Eype, Dorset.

The chalet is surrounded by fields, rolling hills and looks out directly onto the sea.

This property is all on one floor and includes two bedrooms, an open plan kitchen/dining area/sitting room with French doors overlooking the sea and the surrounding sweeping fields.

Seconds away is a beautiful pebble and sand beach backed by impressive cliffs, including the impressive Golden Cap, the highest cliff on the South coast at 191m above sea level.

The chalets are located in the sleepy coastal village of Eype which is highly sought after by ramblers and people who enjoy outdoor life.

Eype has the benefit of a local pub, the New Inn serving a good choice of food and a fine pint of ale as well as a seasonal shop very near the chalets for basic provisions only.

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.

For a busier atmosphere, the market town of Bridport is only a mile and a half 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.

The walks on offer around Siesta and Sandpiper are some of the best available along the World Heritage coastline of Dorset.

If walking doesn't take your fancy you may wish to sit on the patio area with a glass of something refreshing and enjoy the surrounding views and tranquillity, while you watch the rabbits skipping about the field!

Siesta Chalet is perfect for relaxing in and as a base from which to explore the beautiful coastline.

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: Changeover day for this property is Sunday
Note: Max 4 people
