Durdle Dreams is a beautiful, detached, thatched cottage in the heart of the picturesque village of West Lulworth. It is a short walk to the local village store and a traditional 16th century thatched pub which serves locally sourced food and regularly changes its local real ales. This luxurious cottage is a beautiful home with exposed beams throughout the downstairs and there is a large modern kitchen/dining room which features a beautiful island and is the perfect place to have dinner together. There is a comfortable living room with a wood burner for your cosy evenings in, and a separate living area if want to watch something different or need a space to work in.

West Lulworth is known as the gateway to the Jurassic Coast and Durdle Dreams is a short walk to the stunning Lulworth Cove, a sheltered, horseshoe shaped natural harbour. Historically, the cove was notorious as a popular landing point for smugglers looking to land their illicit booty. Today a fleet of fishing trawlers are based in the cove as well as pleasure boats offering scenic day voyages along the coast, whilst the sheltered position makes the cove particularly popular with beach goers looking to sunbathe and swim. From here you can take the coastal path to Durdle Door to see the natural limestone archway, which is one of Dorsets most photographed and iconic landmarks. There are many attractions a short drive away including Monkey World, The Tank Museum, The Swanage Steam Railway which goes between the 100 year old castle at Corfe Castle and the seaside town of Swanage, Durlston Country Park and the market town of Wareham. Beach ½ mile. Shop 180 yards, pub and restaurant 350 yards.

Lovely well equipped house in a great location. Good dog proof garden and the games room in the garage was a nice addition which was very popular with the younger ones.

Great stay in a lovely cottage , location was excellent for walking into Lullworth , Durdle Door and the Range walks . Only one slight niggle was the lack of drawers in one of the bedrooms, plenty of hanging space though.
Property excellent, good location, everything easy. Had a lovely time.
