Well situated within the popular village of Chideock, and within walking distance of the Jurassic Coast and the beach at Seatown, Apple Blossom is an ideal holiday home for exploring both the coast and glorious Dorset countryside. Lying within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Apple Blossom and the popular village of Chideock are just one mile away from Seatown and Dorset's Jurassic Coast, famed for its fossils and miles of beaches. The cottage is well situated, just steps away from the village stores and within a short stroll of two local dining pubs. The cottage has been lovingly furnished and equipped, and offers spacious accommodation, including a comfortable sitting room with wood burning stove. There is a family dining room, a bright and well-equipped kitchen and a ground floor shower room. On the first floor are two attractive double bedrooms with wonderful views of Langdon Hill, plus a cosy single bedroom, a family bathroom and a separate cloakroom. Outside is a pretty garden with dining terrace and seating area, a fully furnished summer house offering a garden room to enjoy in all weathers, and the fantastic bonus of a handmade pirate ship complete with flagpole, steering wheel and a commanding view of the garden. The cottage is perfect for families as a comfortable retreat when looking to explore nearby Golden Cap, the highest point on the South Coast. Within easy reach are the seaside attractions of Westbay, Charmouth and Lyme Regis, and with Bridport, Beaminster and numerous quaint villages close by, there is plenty to see and do in this beautiful part of West Dorset. Additional Information: Travel cot and highchair and stairgate available on request (please bring your own cot linen). Up to two well behaved dogs welcome (small additional charge). The summer house has lighting and an electric log burner effect stove. The washing machine, iron and ironing board can be found in the utility outhouse.

Apple Blossom was comfortable and well located, nice easy walk to the beach and close to pubs. Neighbours were really friendly and welcoming. Garden and summer house was lovely, had breakfast in the summer house and the odd afternoon nap. Garden was perfect for barbeques and outside eating, and dog friendly. Bedrooms were lovely, nicely decorated with high quality bed linen and towels and excellent beds. Kitchen was really well equipped with plenty of lovely cups, plates, glasses etc. The downstairs rooms were slightly dated but this did not detract from our holiday experience.
Apple Blossom is very well appointed and clean. Nearly everything was thought of. However in such a little and dated cottage there were a few issues. The narrow upstairs bathroom and separate toilet off the stairs for instance. Access into the lane is Very narrow and hard to find. The A35 is very busy and noisy. Our dog started the week relaxed but at the end was terrified of having to walk the 100 yards to cross the A35 and set off on the lovely footpath to the coast. We were there in a heat wave and the plastic grass was uncomfortable and too hot to sit on. The summerhouse was lovely but would have benefitted from curtains/blinds. We loved the area and the Anchor Pub is exceptional for food and staff.
Information correct at the time of writing.
A short stroll in either direction will find you at one of two pubs the village of Chideock has to offer The Clock Inn and The George Inn, both offering traditional pub food and ales.
Just a mile away is the beautiful beach at Seatown, predominately shingle with a shelving bank, it is great for those looking for a quiet spot to relax. Perched above the beach you can find the multi award-winning The Anchor Inn renowned for excellent seafood dishes with much of the produce caught locally. The location provides the perfect setting for eating out in the sunshine with Golden Cap to the west providing a magnificent backdrop.
The National Trust's Langdon Woods and Langdon Hill can be seen right from the cottage windows and make for a lovely walk, from here you can climb the famous Golden Cap – the highest point on the south coast with breathtaking panoramic views for miles.
Walkers are truly spoilt for choice in this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, where you can pick up the coastal path, with footpaths covering miles of the beautiful coastline offering stunning views en route.
The well stocked Felicity's Farm Shop is a short drive and provides a variety of high quality, fresh and seasonal local produce.
Just a ten minute drive is Bridport, a thriving, quirky and cultural market town with a super reputation for its arts, culture, events and food. The town is a hive of activity with a mix of independent shops, cafes and restaurants.
West Bay lies just a mile on from Bridport and is an attractive and bustling harbour village. From here you can explore the dramatic Jurassic coastline by boat, or try and catch your supper on a mackerel fishing trip!
The historic seaside town of Lyme Regis is well worth a visit and offers something for everyone, from its fascinating fossil heritage to its family friendly sandy beach and not forgetting the iconic Cobb and harbour.
The picturesque village of Abbotsbury has several attractions to visit, including a Swannery, where you can see mute swans on their nests, feed the cygnets and spot many common and rare visiting birds throughout the year. The award winning Subtropical Gardens makes for a lovely day out, the gardens showcase a mixture of formal and informal flowers with rare and exotic plants from all over the world. Stop off for homemade cake and tea from the garden coffee shop and visit the excellent plant centre, where many of the flowers grown in the gardens can be purchased.
