3 Bedroom Cottage in West Compton, Powerstock

Beautiful detached Grade II listed thatched holiday cottage, with origins dating back over 250 years, is nestled in the picturesque village of Powerstock within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty deep in the West Dorset countryside.
The cottage is well equipped to meet your need for a fantastic holiday in Dorset, with updated soft furnishings for 2023.
Downstairs you enter through the front door to a hallway. On the right is a large kitchen leading onto the breakfast dining room opening out to the large enclosed walled garden.
To the left of the hallway is the lounge with two comfortable sofas, a window seat and large fire place with wood burning stove. Beyond this is the second living room (snug), which also opens out to the garden. Finally, at the end of the hallway beyond the stairs there is also a shower room with toilet.
Upstairs there are three very good sized bedrooms, 2 king sized and one twin. There is also a family bathroom.
To the side of the cottage is a wooden gate and gravel drive where there is parking for 2 cars on the property.
Please note this is accessed by the narrow lane so can be tight to swing into the drive. If two cars are parked on the drive, it can be tricky to then close the gate so please be aware when booking. Please note gate has been repaired following a recent review.
To the rear of the cottage is a large cottage garden with plenty of lawn and mature boarders which is enclosed, with plenty of room for children to play.
The village of Powerstock is rural and quiet but with a lot of history. It is mentioned in the Doomsday book and sits at the foot of the ancient Iron Age fort of Eggardon Hill. There are numerous walks and cycle paths from the door.
A few minutes walk from the cottage takes you to the 15th Century Norman church looking over the valley, and just beyond is the popular Three Horse Shoes public house with excellent local food and beer (Good Pub Guide 2023 'Worth a Visit'). A little further on along a footpath to Nettlecombe is yet another pub, The Marquis of Lorne (Good Pub Guide 2023 'Recommended').
The bustling market town of Bridport is 5 miles away and has many restaurants and cafes and twice weekly markets with a great array of local produce. Bridport has a thriving music scene, with local venues and regular concerts. It acts as a gateway town to the Jurassic Coast, the first natural World Heritage Site designated in England. The coast at Burton Bradstock, managed by the National Trust, is 7 miles from the cottage. The fishing port of West Bay and scene for the popular TV drama 'Broadchurch' is also only 15 minutes away for the cottage.
Farther afield is the coastal town of Lyme Regis, a lovely seaside town, beach and harbour with great fish and chips and watersports. Also setting for the iconic film Ryan's Daughter.
The county down of Dorchester is 25 minutes drive from the cottage, which has an array of shops, museums, cinemas and churches.
1 small dog allowed provided he/she is kept downstairs in the living room (not snug) and kitchen only and remains off the furniture. Please bring a bed for your dog.
Under no circumstances to be allowed upstairs or on the beds
An additional pet fee will be charged, please advise at the time of booking.

Summary: This is a beautiful cottage, very clean and well equipped. The owner was very helpful and allowed us to arrive slightly earlier than the normal check in time, which was great, as we were travelling with our young grandson. The booking states that there is parking for two cars, however upon arrival we found this to be very difficult. It took several attempts to arrange both cars, so that we were able to close the gate, allowing a safe space for our two dogs. (If you’re good at Tetris, it’s do-able) otherwise, it’s NOT a secure garden. The gate itself is very heavy and awkward to move and needs some TLC, our son was able to close it for us, but he even found it difficult. Another problem we came across, was the neighbour opposite the cottage. They would park their car across the gate on the opposite side of the road, making it extremely difficult to get out, especially as it’s such a small lane (not very polite either) Besides this, we had a lovely week, with very hot weather. We visited many places, including the Donkey Sanctuary in Sidmouth, West Bay and Lyme Regis. There is lots to see and do near the surrounding area of the Cottage. The only other thing I would like to add is the use of the high chair. We used the one from the cottage, however this high chair could do with being replaced, as the straps and clips were broken and we had to tie the strap to the side of the chair, this wasn’t very safe but it was all we were able to do….just a heads up if you’re taking younger children with you, I would suggest that you take your own.
