Description

This Elizabethan stone cottage enjoys an attractive position on the edge of Langton Matravers, just a short drive from Swanage. It offers the perfect escape for families or small groups.

With the sandy beach and traditional entertainments of the seaside resort of Swanage within a few minutes drive, this cottage is ideally located for enjoying both coast and countryside. The quaint purbeck village of Langton Matravers has a public house for meals and local beers and ciders, which is an easy stroll from the cottage. The area is a haven for keen walkers and cyclists, with footpaths leading from the village to join the nearby coastal path, which leads to Swanage and the small coastal villages of Worth Matravers, Kimmeridge, and Lulworth. The area is also part of the World Heritage Jurassic Coast, which boasts wonderful unspoilt panoramic coastal views. The steam railway is also close by.

This spacious cottage dates back to 1560, and still retains many original features, including charming beamed ceilings and a large inglenook fireplace. On the ground floor is a fitted kitchen with attractive units, equipped with an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, and washing machine, as well as a cloakroom with WC. There’s a dining room with a beamed ceiling and large oval table - a pleasant place for delicious dinners or big breakfasts. The large lounge is furnished with a sofa and armchairs, as well as a TV/DVD, all situated in front of a woodburning stove which sits in the inglenook fireplace. Up the cottage style stairs you’ll find three attractive bedrooms - two double rooms, one with a basic, plus a twin room. There’s also a newly refurbished shower room with WC.

On a raised area at the rear of the cottage is a lovely large garden with extensive lawn. It lies adjacent to open fields, and is a good place to relax or play. Garden furniture is provided so you can dine al fresco. There’s also parking for up to three cars available on the driveway.

Dogs are charged at £20 each per full or part week.

Please note there is a refundable £100 security deposit for this property payable closer to the start of your holiday.
