    “The cottage is very charming, and overall it was clean.”

    Beds were comfortable. In the kitchen, the top oven was dirty so we didn't use, the bottom oven did smoke a lot when we first turned it on, but was fine on further use. Quite a bit of the china was grubby, looked like it had just been rinsed under the tap. This could be because there were no dishwasher tablets, or washing up liquid supplied. I find that omission, very mean and penny pinching. I have stayed in a lot of holiday cottages and this is the first time for many years that the owners ...

    Beds were comfortable. In the kitchen, the top oven was dirty so we didn't use, the bottom oven did smoke a lot when we first turned it on, but was fine on further use. Quite a bit of the china was grubby, looked like it had just been rinsed under the tap. This could be because there were no dishwasher tablets, or washing up liquid supplied. I find that omission, very mean and penny pinching. I have stayed in a lot of holiday cottages and this is the first time for many years that the owners have not supplied the basics. The welcome pack was very basic as well, a pint of milk and a packet of biscuits. The garden is enclosed and was great for our dogs .Location was great for exploring the area. There are some good walks where the dogs could go off lead. Would recommend the local pub. Very friendly and the food was delicious.

    Thank you for your comments. I'm surprised and sorry to hear there was no washing up liquid or dishwasher tablets. Although the cottage is self-catering the housekeeping team normally supply a few tablets and some washing up liquid along with hand soap and loo roll to tide guests over until they can go shopping. I can only think they they must have forgotten on this occasion for which I apologise. I will remind them. We also supply tea, coffee and sugar. The walking locally is fabulous and I am glad to hear you enjoyed the garden and local pub. We hope to welcome you at Pippins again. Property Owner

The property

A pretty stone cottage situated in the picturesque village of Loders, near Bridport in Dorset.

Pippins provides a very comfortable, peaceful base from which to explore this area of outstanding natural beauty.

Dating back over 200 years the cottage has been brought tastefully up to date, offering all modern comforts whilst retaining many attractive period features including exposed beams, a large inglenook fireplace with open fire, and bread oven which give the cottage a traditional cosy feel.

Pippins has been finished to a high standard and enjoys beautiful views.

It has a fully enclosed, south facing cottage garden with patio areas where guests can soak up the sun or dine al fresco.

With view across the countryside from both downstairs and upstairs, creating an ever moving picture for you to enjoy.

Pippins is within easy reach of Dorset's World Heritage Jurassic coastline and many beautiful beaches.

With a multitude of footpaths and byways right outside the door, it also offers a wonderful base for walkers and cyclists.

There are two pubs within easy walking distance; The Crown at Uploders and the Loders Arms in Loders.

Both traditional in style, they welcome families, serve delicious home cooked food and real ale and have open log fires to warm yourself by on colder days.

Surrounded by green hills and countryside with pretty little streams and rivers running through it, Bridport is just perfect for city dwellers searching for country charm.

With the finest traditional pubs, many of which lovingly welcome dogs, great markets, fantastic restaurants and tea rooms and the culture provided by the famous art scene, there is plenty to keep everyone in your cottage party, very happy.

The countryside location, yet closeness to the coast ensure Pippins Loders is the ideal base for your family holiday.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.

About the location

BRIDPORT

Lyme Regis 10 miles; West Bay 2 miles.

The attractive market town of Bridport grew up around the River Brit, and was shaped by its extensive history of rope and net making. The long, wide streets and alleyways between the houses were once where the flax strands were twisted into rope, while today those streets are filled with an interesting variety of shops, restaurants and inns. Bridport’s market is regularly featured on the River Cottage TV programme. 2 miles south of Bridport is the dramatic Jurassic coast at West Bay, now a World Heritage Site, home to the backdrop for TV's Harbour Lights and the coastal setting for popular Broadchurch, whilst the picturesque resort of Lyme Regis is within 10 miles. A superb base for exploring wonderful West Dorset.
