Old Rectory View is a spacious rural retreat tucked away in the Dorset countryside, just 7 miles from West Bay. This bright, airy 4-star accommodation offers stunning panoramic views across rolling hills where you might spot local wildlife including deer on your morning coffee run. The property feels wonderfully secluded but puts Dorset's best bits within easy reach.
Set down a quiet lane with private gardens, this is proper countryside living without sacrificing comfort. Perfect for walkers and cyclists with countless routes straight from the doorstep. The Jurassic Coast is just a short drive away and historic Dorchester offers shops, pubs and the county museum when you need a bit of civilization.
The accommodation sleeps 4 guests across 2 bedrooms - one super-king-size and one twin that can be converted to a king-size on request. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you'll need and the stylish lounge features a Smart TV and electric wood burner effect fire. There's even a bright conservatory for those "too British to sit outside but want to feel like we are" moments.
Visit Dorchester (15 minutes), explore the Jurassic Coast at Lyme Regis (25 minutes), or try Bridport's famous market (20 minutes). Weymouth's sandy beaches are just 30 minutes away - perfect for those days when you need to feel sand between your toes.
Old Rectory View offers true peace and relaxation with its hot tub, enclosed garden and BBQ. Previous guests rave about the spaciousness and the friendly owners who sometimes provide fresh eggs from their chickens. Who doesn't love a holiday with benefits that come with feathers?
