The River Cottage

With a private courtyard overlooking the River Frome, this cottage has a wonderful setting. Inside, there are traditional features and a log-burning stove adding to the cosy charm. This is a great retreat for a family (one of the bedrooms has a single with a pull-out bed, so this room is best suited for the kids). If you’re into fly fishing, then this place is ideal as there are steps from the patio to the river. Or you can explore the village centre with its shops and pub. For a day at the beach, hop in the car and head to Burton Bradstock or Weymouth.

Home truths:
*The third bedroom has a single with a trundle bed, so it's more suited to kids.
*At full capacity, there aren't enough chairs for everyone.
*One well-behaved dog is welcome to accompany you during your stay.
*There's off-road parking for two cars, but beware parking for two cars can be a bit of a squeeze (other nearby parking is available).
