Discover the best of the coast and countryside
What our guests say...
Spend your days here heading out for walks from the doorstep and exploring everything this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty has to offer.
Come the evening, settle down by the crackling wood-burning stove for cosy conversations and board games, before a restorative night’s sleep in dreamy beds with sumptuous feather and down bedding.
Stay in a holiday cottage near pubs
If you’re after a no-car holiday cottage in Dorset, Blackbird Cottage fits the bill perfectly. It’s just a short stroll to Beaminster’s welcoming market square, where you’ll find a host of independent shops and cafés, artisan food producers, friendly pubs and award-winning restaurants for when you don’t feel like cooking.
Idyllic countryside location
“The location was idyllic,” said one of our guests in a recent review. “It was the perfect balance of tranquillity but with the convenience of being a very short walk to Beaminster shops and restaurants/cafés.”
With countryside walks starting right from the doorstep, Blackbird Cottage is a wonderful base for exploring Dorset with your dog. Enjoy scenic walks straight from the cottage, then venture further afield to discover Dorset’s beautiful landscapes, coast and charming market towns.
The stunning Jurassic Coast is only a short drive away, making it easy to enjoy adventures with your four-legged friend. Head to Lyme Regis for fossil-hunting or explore the walking trails along this UNESCO World Heritage coastline.
