    “Just had a week at Woodlands.”

    Stayed here several times now, lovely peaceful location, comfortable bungalow. The bathrooms have recently been refurbished, very nice. The Lounge area now requires refurbishment, new carpet and furniture as these are now quite worn and the sofa is uncomfortable. The oven and hob need replacing, cannot read the temp setting of the oven and the hob rings are a hit and miss. Will be back again next year.

About the location

RINGSTEAD

Weymouth 7.6 miles.

Ringstead Bay is an unspoilt pebble beach on the Jurassic coastline surrounded by striking cliffs and farmland. The original village mentioned in the doomsday book no longer exists, but there is now a small vibrant community nestled at the back of the bay in a variety of unique houses. You can enjoy walking the South West Coast path or meander through the woodland walks, whatever your preference this is a gorgeous place to be outside. When you are ready to explore further afield, you will find Lulworth Cove and Durdle door a short 11 miles away and Weymouth with it’s beautiful beach and plentiful restaurants and cafes 7 miles to the west. The Bovington Tank Museum, Monkey World Rescue, and Tyneham Village all offer varied and interesting days out just a short drive from Ringstead, presuming you can tear yourselves away from the unspoilt beach.
