Description from owner

Description

A step back in time just 200 yards from Lulworth Cove. Rose Cottage is a delightful self-contained thatched property with three double bedrooms, one twin and a child`s twin (Single). Proximity to Lulworth Cove and the Jurassic Coast and all its spectacular scenery and secret beaches, makes this an ideal choice for the extended family holiday. Delightful gardens with sea views are an additional attraction. Lulworth Cove is only 200yds away. Vehicular access time the immediate Cove area is restricted which makes this a safe walk road walk. Above the cottage is Bindon Hill, immediately above Lulworth Cove, accessible now from Bindon Road 300yds by footpath from the cottage This is a wild flower and butterfly paradise for the keen nature lover. Walk straight out onto the Jurassic Coastal Walks it just potter in the Cove area. In the last few years we have re-thatched the cottage and modernised all the bathrooms. We have given the cottage a touch of modernity with a lovely extended kitchen which makes an ideal family centre with a large kitchen table. Patio doors directly into the back courtyard make a barbecue an attractive option. We have retained the formal dining room for special occasions, or it can just be used as a quiet place to sit with a book or computer. A comfortable sitting room with deep arm chairs and log burning stove makes this a particularly lovely winter/Christmas venue. The cottage has also been used as a base for wedding parties using nearby Lulworth Castle. Linen and logs are provided. Children and dogs are most welcome. We have a cot and high chair, as well as three z-beds for all those children. The cottage sleeps up to 9 adults comfortably - and is still a lovely place to stay with a smaller party. The longer the stay the better the deal and smaller groups will receive favourable discounts mid-week and off season. There is free view television with integral DVD in the Sitting Room and unlimited WiFi. There is a large garden that rises high above the cottage with sea views. The small and enclosed front garden is a lovely place to sit and watch the world go by. Lulworth Cove is only 200yds down the road and the Jurassic Coastal path sets off westwards directly from the front door!

Further details

Minimum stay of three nights except in mid-winter. Preferred booking, direct to owners by phone or e.mail. Bookings can be made for the whole cottage to be taken on a self-catering basis only. There is a ground floor bedroom which is suitable for the partially disabled with one deep step from the room to the ensuite shower.

Further details indoors

Rose Cottage is a typical old world thatched cottage with beams and low ceilings. The bedrooms are fully furnished but not spacious. Extra cots are a possibility in the three double rooms but camp beds would be a tight fit. The twin room could accommodate an extra bed and the single has a small pull out bed making this a child`s twin. There is bed space for 9 adults but numerous children could be fitted in as well. The cottage is a remarkably spacious family house and absorbs large numbers comfortably. There is no terrestrial signal for television in Lulworth which means a Sky dish brings in the signal but there is no Sky package. There is free unlimited WiFi. A USB socket can be found at the kitchen breakfast bar.

Further details outdoors

The cottage has its own large garden at the back and access from there to the woods above. Dogs can be secured in the back courtyard when unattended. The garden and cottage enjoy lovely views. There is no main road traffic at night and the Cove is less than 5 minutes walk. The front of the cottage has a small rose garden with bench seat which is gated and secure for small children and dogs. The back of the cottage has a paved enclosed area with barbecue and log store. Steep steps give access to the large garden and orchards above.

“Lulworth Christmas”

Reviewed 18 Dec 2017

Catriona was aware that we had booked Rose Cottage for an early family Christmas. She very thoughtfully decorated the cottage for us with a tree and all the trimmings: a lovely welcome for us. The cottage is ideally located for Lulworth Cove; we were lucky as we had a superbly sunny walk to the beach then along the coast to Durdle Door. What an amazing place!!! We had our dog with us: plenty of room in the hallway for her bed, a hilly garden is good for early morning and late evening walks. The walk we did was perfect for dogs - the cliff is fenced - she only needed the lead near the sheer cliffs at Durdle Door.

“Ideally situated, pretty, well-equipped and cosy cottage.”

Reviewed 20 Sep 2017

Rose Cottage was perfect for our annual walking trip. Walks straight from the door, a beautiful beach, pubs and visitor centre a stone's throw from the front door. The cottage was warm and charming, beds extremely comfortable (very important after those long walks!) and good strong showers. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, thank you Catriona!
