Hidden away in a quiet Dorset village, this marvellous thatched cottage makes for a perfect rural retreat. Surrounded by greenery and only fifteen minutes from the coast, the cottage boasts elegant period features on the inside and a beautiful garden outside – complete with its own stream – for you to wander at leisure. Its three bedrooms are upstairs and linked with no separate access, meaning whoever takes the first bedroom will need to accommodate other guests passing through. Beyond the cottage's verdant grounds, it's only a short drive to the beaches of Lyme Regis, as well as the amazing topography of the Jurassic Coast.
