About this property

A lovely, 19th century, semi-detached cottage situated in the rural hamlet of Shave Cross in the heart of the Marshwood Vale, 6 miles from Bridport. Set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this former farm worker's cottage located next to a small holding, offers comfortable, well-equipped accommodation. The property boasts a fitted kitchen with lovely flagstone floor, a cosy sitting room with woodburning stove and wonderful countryside views. Glorious walks can be enjoyed from the doorstep, while preserves and farm cider are available to buy next door. Situated close to the local pub and within a short drive of the stunning Dorset Heritage Coast at Charmouth and the bustling market town of Bridport, this idyllic rural retreat is a superb base from which to explore this beautiful part of West Dorset and the surrounding area.

Nestled in the picturesque Marshwood Vale in the glorious unspoilt countryside of west Dorset is the tiny hamlet of Shave Cross. A mere five miles from the beautiful Dorset Heritage Coast, this lovely settlement is also close to the thriving market town of Bridport known for its association with the television program 'The River Cottage' and its highly coveted amateur writing award. With its Georgian buildings and picturesque 17th Century cottages, the seaside resort of Lyme Regis is only a short drive away and is well worth visiting for its wide range of shops, restaurants, museums and gardens. With so much to see and do surrounding the peaceful hamlet of Shave Cross, this location makes an ideal holiday destination for anyone looking to explore what the pretty Dorset region has to offer.
