window seat in the dorset nook

The Dorset Nook is a romantic seaside cottage, hidden away down a little coastal footpath just minutes from Eype beach. With the most glorious walks right from the garden gate it’s the perfect place to reset and unwind, whatever the season.

Sleeping two adults, this beautiful eighteenth-century cottage is one of the oldest in the village. Oak beams, exposed stone walls and pretty window seats provide the perfect backdrop for beautiful fabrics, original art and carefully chosen vintage furniture. Character meets absolute comfort.

“The peace and quiet in this beautiful cottage were just what we needed.”

James and Catherine, February 2025

REVIEWS

The village of Eype is a rare coastal gem with the most spectacular, unspoilt beach. There’s a pub for a quick pint within rolling distance of the cottage and the lovely market town of Bridport is just over a mile away.

The cottage is set down a countryside footpath away from the village road with private parking just around the corner.

“Thank you so much for such a special weekend. This was our minimoon and we’ve had the most amazing time.”

Jamie and Katie, April 2025
