Escape to the Dovestone – Rustic Beachside Retreat

Looking for a relaxed beach escape? Our refurbished rustic retreat, named after the Dovestone Reservoir in Northwestern England, offers the perfect blend of coastal charm and country serenity—a peaceful getaway from the hustle and bustle of city life.

Step inside to a light-filled, open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area designed for comfort and connection. Two large decks wrap around the house, perfect for catching the sun, enjoying a glass of wine, or simply relaxing with the fresh sea breeze. Host a long lunch or dinner with family and friends on the outdoor BBQ and dining area at the back of the house.

The main house features two cozy bedrooms serviced by a spacious bathroom and separate toilet. The third bedroom is set a few steps away, offering privacy along with its own bathroom and toilet facilities—ideal for families or groups. The fully fenced backyard is a safe space for kids and your furry friends (dogs allowed outside only).

Inside the garage, you’ll find a convenient laundry. Stay comfortable in all seasons with reverse cycle air conditioning in the main living area and a log fire in the second living space for chilly evenings.

With Inverloch’s local shops, cafés, and beaches just a short stroll away, the Dovestone offers a charming and convenient coastal getaway. Treat yourself—book your stay and enjoy the perfect mix of rustic style and beachside comfort.

Weekend in Inverloch.

On first appearance the property was fresh and clean. However, things like the bathroom window and exhaust fan,taps and a few other things need attention. The couch in the main living area is very uncomfortable as was the mattress we slept on. We are both in our 70’s and having the shower over the bath could have been a problem for people our age, being informed before hand would have been better. The backyard was great for our 2 dogs, plenty of room for them to run around and play as well as space undercover for their crates that they sleep in over night.

Very disappointed

Very disappointing, main bedroom was in an outside shed which was not mentioned in the listing. The bathroom that serviced this room could only be accessed by going back outside. Sky light in inside bathroom not sealed around edges which resulted in the place being full of bugs. we only stayed 1 night and left the following morning. Very dissapointing
