This delightful and spacious contemporary cottage is located in the sleepy Dorset village of Loders, with its welcoming pub, church and pretty stone built thatched cottages giving the visitor a taste of traditional English village life, now fast disappearing. Recently renovated the cottage is practical and welcoming with a cosy but spacious lounge with woodburner, separate dining area, three bedrooms and a glorious sunny garden with views of the popular walker's haven of Boarsbarrow Hill and a patio perfect for some al fresco dining.  The county of Dorset is renowned for its picturesque villages, soft rolling countryside and Jurassic coastline and there is plenty to entertain the visitor. These include trips to the many beaches along the Heritage Coast, fossil hunting at Charmouth, a day out at the stunning beach at West Bay, visiting the delightful seaside town of Lyme Regis or meandering through the streets in bustling market town of Dorchester. Ha'penny Cottage can also be booked in association with Farthing cottage next door (subject to availability) thereby allowing for larger parties.
