Notes: 'The Tallet' means wheelwright's shop. The original building dates from the 18th century and was converted in the 1920's in Arts & Crafts style. It is situated amid lush Dorset countryside in the grounds of a larger property known as Littlehill, but is separate, and has its own access and parking. The cottage has recently been completely modernised to luxury standard. The accommodation is for 2 people and comprises, on the ground floor, an open plan modern kitchen at one end, partly separated by a small internal staircase from the living/dining area with an open fireplace, TV and video, storage heater, and bookshelves: the floor is old pine wood blocks. A patio door opens out onto a south facing stone terrace and small completely private garden with a pond.

Further details for this vacation cottage rental in Dorset, United Kingdom

Upstairs there is a comfortable bedroom with a king-size double bed (or two singles), storage heater, an open fireplace, and a bay window which overlooks the garden. This is ensuite with a substantial bathroom and WC. A large oak door opens out onto a veranda (seen in the upper part of the photograph) from which there are fine views over the lower or Evening Terrace, swimming pool, and the formal gardens (which cover 3 acres), to Lyme Bay in the distance. Adjoining the Evening Terrace is an old fashioned Conservatory with large curved windows (the building to the right in the photograph). You can see the most wonderful sunsets from the Evening Terrace, underlined by the pool and gardens, with the pinpoints of lights appearing at Charmouth and Lyme Regis.

General Area: For walkers and sightseers, there are many places of interest within very easy reach of the property in this outstandingly beautiful part of England. These include the National Trust trails and preserved sites such as the Golden Cap Estate, Lambert Castle, Lewisdon Hill and Hardown Hill. There are many picturesque unspoilt villages in the area. The nearest beach is at St Gabriel's Gap, some 1 1/2 miles distant. The coastline, which is famous for it's rich fossiliferous rocks, now has World Heritage status. Within half an hours drive you can reach the tropical gardens of Abbotsbury, and in that region and inland, Thomas Hardy country. The town of Lyme Regis, famous for its picturesque harbour and 'The Cobb', and Bridport a busy and prosperous market town still with fishing interests, are each about 10 minutes away by car.

Wonderfull

Review Submitted: April 1, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
We had a few wonderfull days in March09. The Tallet is as lovely as it looks in the pictures even at this early time of year. Stairs inside are quite narrow and have a tight curve but alternative route up outside (under cover) which I'm sure is fine in the summer. Log fire not necessary as heating is fine, but was lovely to sit by in the evenings. And there's a cast iron bath and plenty of hot water for a recouperative bath after a strenuous walk. hemain house gardens are lovely for a gentle stroll, or to sit and read or conemplate in with lovely sea views

Location good for walking the rugged Dorset coastal path, or visiting Lyme Regis, Dorchester etc. Good bus route through village, he x53 runs from Exeter to Bournemouth along the A35, plus other local service no 31,so once you get there leave the car and walk or bus it.

Good reasonably priced food at nearby pubs.

We can't wait to go back

A perfect little gem!

SnGonthego Vancouver, BC, Canada
Review Submitted: June 19, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
This little cottage was absolute perfection - beautifully decorated, complete attention to detail, very clean, well stocked, very comfortable and with gracious hosts. We were able to travel all around Somerset and into Devon and Cornwall. The small villages close by and Bridport down the road supplied all our needs. We loved the cottage but someone with difficulties climbing stairs or getting into a tub might find it not suitable.
The gardens surrounding the cottage and the big house were beautiful - and we had our own little garden and pool to look out onto every morning and evening. For the cool evenings, there was a fireplace and a big pile of wood to burn. We could not have made a more perfect choice.

Romantik und viel Ruhe: ein südenglisches Kleinod

BritSteph Hamburg, Deutschland
Review Submitted: August 9, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
Die bisherigen Bewertungen sind bei weitem nicht übertrieben: wir haben zwei wundervolle und erholsame Wochen in Cottage, Garten und Pool verbracht! Obwohl sehr klein, ist das Haus aber für zwei Personen gemütlich und vollständig ausgestattet (sogar mit Backformen!). Alles ist in bestens gepflegtem Zustand, die Vermieter sind nett und hilfsbereit und das Haus liegt verkehrsgünstig. Direkt im Ort gibt es zwar keine Lokale o.ä., aber dafür Moore's Biscuit Bakery, die neben regionalen Produkten (Käse u.ä.) dienstags und donnerstags frisch gebackenes Brot anbietet. Außerdem ist der nächste Waitrose in Bridport und in Seatown lässt es sich herrlich im Sonnenuntergang auf dem Kliff zu Fish 'n' Chips ein frisch gezapftes Ale trinken. Cheers!
