Bridport is in West Dorset, close to the Jurassic coast, the famous Chesil Beach and the incredible Swannery and Sub tropical gardens at Abbotsbury. The county town, Dorchester, just 12 miles away, long associated with Thomas Hardy, also boasts the Dinosaur & Teddy Bear museums. Charmouth and Lyme Regis are a short bus or drive away, or you could lose yourself in the Great Dorset Maze. Weymouth has a Sea life Centre and other family activities. Nearby there is the Cerne Abbas Giant to see or you could go to the Haynes Motor museum or experience the Fleet Air Arm in Yeovil. For people who love art/crafts/music, there is a thriving arts scene, with many local pubs having regular music gigs. For those who love history, you could take in some historic houses such as Athelhamton or Sherbourne Abbey or the astonishing iron age fort of Maiden Castle. Burton Bradstock beach is great for family fun and the cafe, which is open all year, is the perfect place to recover from a long walk.

Great holiday at Cato Cottage

Review Submitted: June 3, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
We had a great holiday in this cottage. The property was a good size - especially downstairs with the sun room. The bedrooms were all spacious and comfortable. It was well equipped. Bridport is very convenient for the beaches at Charmouth and West Bay and it is about 10 miles from Lyme Regis.A week was not long enough to explore this area and we will definitely come back. I would recommend this cottage for families.
