Bubbs Cottage was the perfect location for our break away. Plenty of things to see and do and it was perfect for our little dog too. Literally 3 minutes walk to the nearest pub (we advise booking if you want food) and a gorgeous walk along the lane to the nearest shop. Lots of dog friendly pubs and shops so no one has to miss out.

Lovely cottage, clean, comfortable and well equipped. Garden room is especially cosy and great to relax in.Lovely quiet area. Good location for accessing Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door or going the opposite way to Abbotsbury (swannery ) Weymouth and Chesil beach. Chesil beach is interesting to see but difficult to access.

Welcoming village. Good food at the pub. Area close by for evening dog walk. If you have noise sensitive dogs, be aware that there was gun fire audible from the army ranges x2 during our week 8pm-midnight! Good secure garden. Glad we hadnt taken the estate car, turning would have been a problem if we had. Heat &hot water aplenty. Visited sculpturesRead more by the lake. REALLY good. took our own picnic. Lots of seats around. No visitors book, sad as we could all share ideas and help one another. Hide

A fab week away in bubbs cottage. Such a lovely place to stay with everything you could need. Did some long walks in area and used the Dorset dog walking guide which was at the cottage. Two great pubs in area, one 5 mins away and the other a 30 min walk which was no problem. Such a charming place to stay, would definitely recommend.
