About this property
Dorset Retreat close to the Jurassic Coast and Weymouth.
Located on a quiet road in the desirable village of Osmington, this property is perfectly located to discover the Jurassic Coast and all that Dorset has to offer. Just a short (15 minutes) walk to the nearest beach and a 10 minute drive to Weymouth.
The cottage has all the mod cons and luxurious touches, and the 3 bedrooms and flexible sleeping arrangement offers excellent family or friends orientated accommodation.
Osmington is a delightful village, close to the beach (1 mile) and the stunning coastal paths. Weymouth, Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove are all a short drive away (less than 6 miles as the crow flies).
Despite not having a big garden, there is a well equipped children’s play area and football pitch next to the village hall.
A short walk away is Craig’s Dairy and Farm Shop which is well stocked with supplies. The local pub, The Sunray, reopened in May 2026.
A small Co-op and two fish and chip shops are in nearby Preston.

About the host
Hosted by Kate Rider
I'm Kate, married to Tom and we have 4 children between the ages of 4 and 13. We live in Kent but try and escape to Dorset when we can get away from all the sporting and weekend commitments that come with family life!
Why they chose this property
We adore Dorset and we chose Emmies due to the proximity to the Jurassic coast and the countryside. There are walks in all directions and something different to do each day and caters to all ages and weather! Please feel free to contact me for any ideas and advice for places to go and for local pub recommendations.
