About this property

Charming Country Escape for all the Family

You arrive at the house and step through a charming porch, which leads you straight into a welcoming reception hall. To your left is a study – a cosy, quiet room perfect for reading or catching up on some emails.

Just off the hall is a handy W.C., ideal for guests. Moving through, you enter a spacious sitting room—warm, inviting, and perfect for relaxing with friends or family. From here, you walk through to the main hall, where the staircase catches your eye with its newly painted spindles.

To your right, you step into a large kitchen/diner. It’s bright and open, clearly the heart of the home—ideal for big breakfasts or evening gatherings. A door leads from here to the garden room: a peaceful retreat surrounded by stone walls, with views out into the garden. It’s been recently re-roofed and has a lovely balance of old charm and modern touches.

Heading Upstairs:

Climbing the stairs, you arrive on a light-filled landing. Directly in front of you is Bedroom 1, the main bedroom—spacious, serene, and with a proposed en suite for added privacy.

To the right is Bedroom 2, positioned next to the shared bathroom, which is equipped with a bath and neatly laid out.

Back along the landing, you find Bedroom 3, which feels like a tucked-away nook—great for kids or guests—and then Bedroom 4, another generous room, possibly for older children or a second guest room.

The house blends character with comfort—historic charm in the studwork walls, lime plaster finishes, and natural stone, paired with modern upgrades throughout. It feels like a lived-in, loved home—but one that’s ready to welcome you, too.


Your family will be close to everything when you stay at this centrally located cottage in a quintessentially English village.

Tucked in the rolling hills of West Dorset, our spacious 4-bedroom, pet-friendly cottage sleeps up to 8 and is the perfect base for exploring the coast and countryside. Whether you’re planning a family gathering, group trip, or peaceful escape, this home offers space, comfort, and charm.

You’re just 20 minutes from the coast, with easy access to Lyme Regis, Charmouth, Seatown, and West Bay – perfect for fossil hunting, beach days, walking the Jurassic Coast, or enjoying local seafood. The surrounding area is full of natural beauty, with miles of footpaths, bridleways, and dog-friendly trails from the doorstep.

A stone’s throw from the lively towns of Beaminster and Bridport, you’ll find markets, indie shops, arts venues, and great places to eat. Pop into a cosy pub, enjoy coffee in a courtyard café, or shop for fresh local produce.

The cottage blends traditional charm with modern convenience. There are four comfortable bedrooms, two bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, large dining area, and two lounges – one with a wood-burning stove. There’s fast Wi-Fi, a smart TV, games, and books for quiet evenings in.

Outside, enjoy a private garden with outdoor seating – perfect for dining alfresco, relaxing with a drink, or letting kids and dogs run free. We welcome well-behaved pets and provide a dog bed, bowls, and a towel for muddy paws.

Whether you’re walking through golden fields, lounging on the beach, enjoying local wine at a vineyard, or curling up by the fire, our home is a peaceful haven you’ll want to return to again and again

About the host

Hosted by Host

Host profile image
We’re a family of six living by the beautiful Dorset coast, where we enjoy hiking, cycling, paddle-boarding, fishing, swimming, and exploring the many unique beaches nearby. On calm days, we take our small boat out to spot dolphins, seals, and sometimes turtles. We feel incredibly lucky to call this wildlife-rich, scenic part of the world our home and love sharing it with others through our small collection of holiday properties.

Broadwindsor Cottage is a favourite—a spacious, characterful home with four large bedrooms and a gorgeous sun-trap garden. Every room is full of charm, offering comfort and style in equal measure. The location is perfect: tucked in the heart of Broadwindsor village, right next to the park (ideal for families), and close to the local pub, craft centre, and scenic walking routes.

Whether you're looking to unwind in the peaceful garden, explore the countryside, or venture to the nearby Jurassic Coast, Broadwindsor Cottage is a perfect base. We’d love to welcome you for a stay.
