The property

Honeypot Cottage is a delightful converted single-storey stone barn, one of eight cottages set around an attractive shared courtyard at the Berehayes Farm. Sleeping up to three guests, the cottage features a comfortable double bedroom and a separate single bedroom, making it well suited to couples, small families or friends looking for a relaxing rural retreat. The interior is bright, and cheerful throughout. The open-plan living space is warm and welcoming, with leather sofas, a wood-burning stove and a Smart TV, all complemented by a striking high vaulted ceiling with exposed beams that adds character and a wonderful sense of space. The country-style kitchen is fully equipped for easy self-catering and includes a dining area for relaxed meals together. The modern bathroom offers a spacious walk-in shower. Honeypot Cottage is also pet friendly, so your dog is welcome to join you on your holiday. Guests can enjoy use of the communal swimming pool complex available during the school holidays by arrangement and at an additional charge. An allocated parking space is provided within the on-site car park for added convenience. Honeypot Cottage is set in the peaceful village of Whitchurch Canonicorum, tucked away on the southern edge of the Marshwood Vale. The village has a welcoming pub and lies within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The dramatic Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site and the National Trust’s Golden Cap are both just a short drive away. The nearby coastal village of Charmouth is particularly popular with fossil hunters, young and old alike, and the Heritage Coast Centre offers guided walks along this famous stretch of coastline. Its broad beach is ideal for scenic walks, rock pooling and relaxed days by the sea, with a choice of cafés and pubs for lunch or a traditional cream tea. A little further along the coast, the historic seaside town of Lyme Regis combines classic seaside charm with a vibrant cultural scene. Wander along the iconic Cobb harbour, explore independent shops and galleries, take a boat trip, or dine on fresh local seafood in one of the many restaurants overlooking the sea. The sandy beach is perfect for families, while the surrounding coastal paths offer breathtaking walking routes. A stop at Felicity’s Farm Shop, just a short distance away, is highly recommended for delicious local produce and tempting homemade treats. With so much to see and do close by, Honeypot Cottage provides an ideal base from which to explore the very best of Dorset’s countryside, coastline and food scene.

About the location

WHITCHURCH CANONICORUM

Bridport 5.4 miles.

Referred to as the capital of the Marshwood Vale, Whitchurch Canonicorum is an attractive mix of farms and cottages. Whitchurch Canonicorum is where you can find the very ancient church of St. Candida and the Holy Cross. It is unique in being the only parish church in England to contain the remains of an ancient saint. There is a well nearby, also named after the Saint, which is also rumoured to have similar healing properties. The attractive market town of Bridport grew up around the River Brit and was shaped by its extensive history of rope and net making. The long, wide streets and alleyways between the houses were once where the flax strands were twisted into rope, while today those streets are filled with an interesting variety of shops, restaurants and inns.

Note: There is access to a heated indoor swimming pool complex available during the main school holidays (excluding Feb Half term) at an extra daily cost of £10 per person, please contact the local office for term dates and more info.
