Idyllic location, cosy cottage and we didn't want to leave.
The Thatch had everything we needed. Lovely to come 'home' to after exploring for the day to play games by the log burner. Comfy beds, all very clean, gorgeous kitchen.
It was an easy drive to Lulworth Cove and the rest of the stunning coast line. We will definitely be coming back.
Quaint cottage in a pretty little hamlet
