No smoking.. Set in the unspoilt village of Bothenhampton about a mile from Bridport and the new harbour of West Bay, where the TV series ’Broadchurch’ was filmed, and its beaches. The historic rope-making town of Bridport with its twice weekly market is a gateway town to the Jurassic Coast, England’s only natural World Heritage Site. Sweet Briar (ref 8234) and Buzzards (ref 8235, first floor) are in the east wing of an old country house and Farthings (ref 19292) is in the west. Many badgers have made their sets in the hill behind, and there is an abundance of wildlife. Perfect for relaxing or more invigorating walking holiday in this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which includes extensive National Trust land. Chesil Beach, one of the finest barrier beaches, begins at West Bay. Lyme Regis with its Cobb and the famous fossil beach at Charmouth are close by. Not far away is the ancient town of Dorchester with its Iron Age hill fort and Roman town house and many other sites of historic interest. Spend a day at Abbotsbury Swannery, the only place in the world where you can walk among the baby swans (hatching from May). Golf course and leisure centre nearby. Bike hire available locally. Ideal for exploring the Jurassic Coast or for just relaxing in this tranquil village. Shop, pub and restaurant ¾ mile.

2 bedroomed gem in Bothenhampton
This first floor two bedroomed apartment was very clean, well decorated and comfortable, light, airy and roomy. The hosts were friendly and helpful and the location was ideal for nearby coastal walks. The provision of a cream tea on arrival was a nice touch. Would definitely stay there again.

A lovely apartment rather than a cottage, very clean & comfortable, ideal base for exploring, great walks nearby, but no real immediate amenities, the local pub was around a 20 minute walk & the shops were about a 5 minute drive away, you probably wouldn't want to walk it carrying shopping bags etc, the kitchen could have been a little better equipped, especially if you want to cook a lot during your stay & having no access to a garden made it a little impractical with the dogs, but nothing that couldn’t be managed, overall a lovely place & would recommend for a self catering holiday.

Everything at Buzzards was excellent, but the WiFi in the upper apparent was occasionally marginal when tried with five different devices. It’s not important unless you have important work to do. An excellent place to to relax and enjoy the countryside and Jurassic Coast. Paul and his wife are perfect hosts.
