About this cottage rental

Nestling in the rolling South Dorset Downs and within the natural beauty of Hardy country, Winfrith Newburgh is a quiet conservation village complete with medieval church and manor house, and is only 3 miles from the 'Jurassic Coast' - designated as England's first natural World Heritage Site - with its spectacular scenic wonders of Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door. They are a short five minute drive away, or even within walking distance for the more adventurous. To the North lie the famous cottage and birthplace of novelist Thomas Hardy at Higher Bockhampton, 18th century Milton Abbey, and Milton Abbas. Other places of interest include Abbotsbury Swannery, the magnificent Maiden Castle just outside Dorchester, one of the largest collections of army fighting vehicles in the world at Bovington Tank Museum, Monkey World, Corfe Castle, and the natural wonder of the Blue Pool near Wareham.
Small well behaved pets allowed, charges apply.

Lovely cottage in fantastic location. Loved everything about it except that only 2 people can really sit/chill comfortably in the living room. Bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen - superb. We had a fab time.

Clear instructions from the house keeper as to where to find and access the key. The Keysafe was a struggle, but we managed eventually. Good WiFi, which is needed as there’s no phone signal. Everything you need in the kitchen for a comfortable stay. Only 1 toilet roll was left though so had to buy more from the village shop! It’s an old, traditional cottage, which is lovely. In character of the time period, the ceilings are low (under 6ft) and the stairs are steep. The house has that older smell to it, which reminded me of my younger days visiting my grandparents.
