Fishermen and walkers are well provided for, as a great variety of fish can be caught at any time of year, and the South West Coastal Path runs right alongside the beach.

Secret cottage to rewind

It was a secret cottage, away from the crowd, noises and closed neighbours. But in the night the forest was overwhelming especially at the back however a great place to be in the day with sunshine.

Lovely little cottage

Lovely little cottage within delightful gardens, that have amazing views of the beach. It’s in a good central but peaceful location to explore the Jurassic Coast. Excellent pub within 5 minute walk that does great G&Ts and home cooked food. Nearby beach, for great dog walks and relaxation.
