Holiday cottages in Dorset

As England’s first natural UNESCO World Heritage Site, Dorset’s Jurassic Coast ranks among the globe’s top natural wonders, with the likes of the Galapagos Islands and Victoria Falls for company. Spanning 95 miles, there is plenty for holidaymakers to explore and a surprising diversity amongst its many beautiful beaches. From royal bathing spots to stunning coves and finding fossilised shells amongst the shingle, there’s a wealth of seaside experiences to suit anyone! One of the wonders of the southern coastline, Lulworth Cove is a stunning natural beauty spot that attracts thousands of visitors every year. Formed over centuries by sea water eroding the various bands of rock at differing speeds, the cove is a popular place for people to moor their boats and go for a dip. The limestone arch, of Durdle Door, which juts out into the sea like the tail of a sea serpent, rises high enough for certain sailing boats to pass through it. This is a great destination for a holiday with family, and friends or for a romantic break for two. With our wide selection of holiday cottages in Dorset, you will be able to set off in any direction for a day of fresh air, discovery and fun!
