Halcyon Cottage

I'd say the cottage is a "home from home" if I had any idea how to make a home so delightful . . . . Everything works on an aesthetic level and yet its somehow unpretentious. Classy but comfortable - with none of the irritations that overthinking can bring. We had a happy three days seeing the cliffs and little towns around, always returning to the cottage to while away the evenings in peace. Thanks Emma

'Halcyon' is the perfect name for this cottage - we absolutely loved our stay here! The cottage is beautifully converted and comfortable, with a lovely, peaceful feel, and Emma, the owner, could not have been more helpful. This would be an idyllic place to stay in any season.... thank you so much, Emma, for your warm welcome - we will be back!

Lovely cottage, stylishly furnished with very comfortable beds. A generous supply of fluffy towels, soaps, along with a kind welcome pack in the kitchen made us feel glad to have chosen Halcyon. Our mini break was soggy with little sunshine, but we were cosy with heating and log fire.

This is a lovely place. Stylish, cosy and comfortable. More space inside than what you would expect from the outside. The cove with stunning scenery is only a short walk away and there are lots of places to have a drink or a meal. The cottage is well equipped with everything one could need. We stayed for two weeks and were sorry to leave!

We stayed at the cottage for 5 days and had the most lovely time – it was like home from home! Emma had thought of everything, from prosecco to washing tabs to a generous amount of logs for the fire, which made it a completely stress-free place to unwind. The location was perfect too, being a short walking distance from Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door – and a short drive from other beautiful coastline walks. After a long day of walking, it was lovely to get back to a warm, cosy cottage and sit in front of the fire, not to mention the great shower pressure too! We can’t wait to return, thank you.

It's cute, it's cosy and it's full of character. If you are looking for a retreat where you can just pull up your car and stop and flop then this is the place. Halcyon Cottage lends itself to calm and rest – you notice the quietness the minute you arrive. Visiting in winter it is noticeably quieter, but even when summer visitors come this little cottage is tucked away but still convenient to the local amenities.
