Blackbird Cottage

We have just had the perfect 3 nights at Blackbird Cottage. Beaminster is a really lovely small town with interesting independent shops and restaurants. Mapperton house is a couple of miles down the road and a beautiful place to visit, as is the countryside around and the easily accessible Jurasic coast. The cottage itself is beautifully furnished and decorated, with supremely comfortable bedrooms. Altogether a cosy place to stay in a great area!

Blackbird Cottage is a quiet, clean, cosy and calming place. Close to the local restaurants and shops in the village centre. Very near to West Bay and the Jurassic Coast with plenty of local walks from the front door. We did some trail running and visited Lyme Regis as well as having a fantastic Sunday roast at The Anchor Inn. The whole place made us feel at ease. A beautiful log burning fire to keep warm and the best nights sleep we’ve had in a long time. We will definitely visit again.

Another fantastic stay at Blackbird Cottage - This cottage really does have everything you need for a perfect Dorset break! Moments to Beaminster’s lovely square with great independent shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants (The Ollerod and Brassica are superb). A short drive to a number of beautiful local beaches - Many with fantastic beach cafés serving everything from Lobster & Chablis to crab sandwiches and pizzas. The cottage itself is super cute… Grade 2 listed, nice interior design touches and a gorgeous garden to come back to after a day on the beach/ long country walk. We will back !

Blackbird Cottage was delightful. Attention to detail was second to none with beautiful furnishings and a high end spec. It was spotlessly clean and welcoming. We were able to park outside for the duration of our stay. We enjoyed two fabulous meals at Brassica and The Ollerod....and the treat of being able to walk to both restaurants. The town and area have much to offer. A real gem of a find. Thank you Sue.

We had a wonderful 2 day stay in Blackbird Cottage in March. It is a lovely place, in a charming town, beautifully appointed and Sue could not be more helpful!

We enjoyed an amazing weekend at Blackbird Cottage, it really is perfect for couples. Beaminster is an unspoilt gem of a Dorset market town. We had an impressive meal at as lovely local restaurant, Brassica, and loved hearing church bells from the cottage mid morning on Sunday. We walked through beautiful countryside from the doorstep of the cottage and we enjoyed exploring the area, the highlight was a beach walk at Hive Beach down the road. The cottage is stylish and immaculate and the kitchen is very well equipped. We slept well in a very comfortable bed and left feeling very refreshed!

If you are looking for a peaceful break away, this is the place for you. With independent shops and eateries on your doorstep, you can come and do as much or as little as you wish. Cosy up in front of the fire with a book or take a short drive out to explore all the Jurassic Coast has to offer. It is easy to relax here.
