    “After booking Tern cottage I wanted to know if it had a washing machine, as this was not mentioned in the list of amenities.”

    Dream cottages told me they contacted the owners who said they did NOT have a washing machine at the property. This was lies. I spoke to the owners in person who said Dream Cottages have never spoken to them regarding a washing machine . So I can confirm they do have a washing machine. Tern Cottage was excellent in all aspects. Lovely outside areas, large kitchen and sitting room but shower cubicle is far to small as you can't get out of the way of the water.

About the location

WEST BAY

Bridport 1.5 miles; Lyme Regis 11 miles

West Bay, fondly known as “The Gateway to the Dorset Jurassic Coast” and popularised by the TV series Broadchurch, lies close to the glorious sandstone cliffs of Golden Cap, at the western end of the dramatic pebbly Chesil Beach. This is a wonderful seaside location, perfect for family holidays, offering scenic walks along the South West Coast Path, as well as ample opportunities to try your hand at sea fishing, crabbing, boating and golf. Visit the homes of Thomas Hardy and TE Lawrence, the Tank Museum at Bovington or the Naval air Museum at Yeovil. Only 1.5 miles away is the vibrant market town of Bridport, featured in the TV series, River Cottage. The area holds plenty of attractions to suit the whole family! Just a short drive West takes you to Charmouth for fossil hunting, to the picturesque seaside resort of Lyme Regis, and to River Cottage HQ near Axminster. To the East are the lovely Sub-tropical Gardens and Swannery at Abbotsbury, and the golden sands of Weymouth. This wonderful location makes an ideal base for a great family holiday.
