About this property

Cosy Victorian Cottage in Chedington, West Dorset

Court Cottage is an attractive, detached stone house surrounded by a lovely, well developed garden in the secluded, picturesque (dog friendly) small village of Chedington, in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Cottage, tastefully restored into a convenient, comfortable, modern dwelling, overlooks a handsome neo-Gothic style stately home which, with its turrets & bell-tower, imparts a romantic atmosphere to the village, beyond which stretch beautiful views of the rolling Dorset countryside. Chedington nestles beside a dramatic, National Trust-protected ridge of beech trees which in spring is carpeted with bluebells. In addition to numerous foot & bridle paths in surrounding areas, the cottage is well situated to cater to a range of interests - 20 minutes from Dorset's World Heritage Jurassic coast; 10 minutes from Beaminster's excellent restaurants & shops & a 3 minute walk up the lane to the historic, popular Winyards Gap pub which boasts a much respected kitchen.

A Warm Welcome!
This attractive, warm, and cozy cottage was everything we needed in a comfortable stay away from home. The cottage has such charm and a spectacular view. The info provided by the host made it easy to utilize the appliances/amenities. We are ever so grateful for this experience. It allowed us to make the most of our time visiting our son and daughter-in-law with the rest of our family. We could not have asked for more. Thank you!

Idyllic cottage
We so enjoyed our stay here! The house was absolutely delightful! It is very welcoming - everything we needed or could have wanted was there and the solarium was an unexpected bonus - it was hard some days to leave the house! Sipping wine in the garden while watching the sunset over the spectacular vista was a highlight. We were able to enjoy walks from the front door and it was well situated to go further afield to visit national trust properties and walks along the jurassic coast or just explore the neighbouring villages We particularly liked all the information we could refer to for walks, restaurants and sites. We hope we will be back!

Nice and cosy cottage
Unser Aufenthalt dauerte 14 Tage. Die Willkommens-Informationen und Unterstützung beim Eintreffen wurde direkt, unkompliziert und sehr freundlich von der Besitzerin gegeben. Das Cottage ist gemütlich und sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Alle Räume waren sehr sauber. Geschirr und Gebrauchsgegenstände in der Küche wurden wohl vom vorherigen Mieter in sehr schlechtem Zustand hinterlassen, was nicht gemerkt wurde... Da das Haus sonst wirklich sehr sauber und gepflegt war, haben wir uns damit arrangiert und kurzerhand einen großen Abwasch vorgenommen. Der Ofen in der Küche diente uns tatsächlich als Wärmequelle - wir hatten typisch englisches Wetter. Alles in allem eine Empfehlung von uns! Ein tolles Haus zum Wohlfühlen, eine super Umgebung zum Wandern und Erkunden. Immer wieder gern.

Lovely home in a quiet location
If you're looking for somewhere quiet to get a way from it all (but with a great pub/restaurant neaby.....with a perfect outdoor area overlooking the valley and sunset) then this is for you. There was very little else within walking distance. It suited us well for a week, but if you're looking for something with a bit more nearby, this may not be for you. Local towns are a short drive away and it's not too far to the stunning coastline however.

Escapade dans le Dorset
Située dans le paisible hameau de Chedington, la petite maison offre repos et confort dans un style traditionnel à l‘anglaise. Villages allentours pittoresques, cuisine des pubs et restaurants le plus souvent excellente. Accès à la mer en 30 min environs. La salle-de-bain mériterait un raffraîchissement.

We hebben kort verbleven in Chedington. Felicity is een vriendelijke gastvrouw en is online goed bereikbaar. Op loopafstand vanaf het huisje vind je de gezellige Inn 'The winyards gap'. We hebben genoten van de prachtige omgeving.

Court Cottage
A delightful oasis in the lovely village of Chedington, Beaminster. The property was charming and quite comfortable. The nearby inn, Winyards Gap, was within walking distance and provided great food. I would recommend this property to anyone who likes to enjoy the peaceful countryside.

Comfy, rural but not isolated
The property is well equipped, and it is clear from the ornaments and contents that the owners use it as a second home. The building is quirky (this is not a problem for us) and is helpfully a short distance from a dining pub that has much to commend it. The rural surroundings are attractive and the views lovely.

Beautiful cottage, lovely area
Good experience all around. The property was clean, plenty of hot water, and the beds were very comfortable. We were in a terrific location to explore the Jurassic Coast, which was the purpose of our trip. We visited Stonehenge, West Bay, Bridport, Lyme Regis, Charlotte Beach and Eype. Would recommend this property to anyone.
