Something Wrong?

This was our third visit to chesil lodge and again we were blessed with fabulous weather all week. dogs love it here , shingle beach and long walks just wear them out. Lodge as always beautifully clean and tidy . Lots to do and see, even my teenage daughters love it here, glad to get away from the hussle and bussle of school and college. Only down side having to return home on the saturday. Thanks again to Peter and Jacky for letting us stay. Hope we can all come again next year.

We stayed for the last 2 weeks in July and despite pretty poor weather (only a couple of beach days in the 2 weeks) had a very enjoyable holiday. The lodge provides well equipped, compact accommodation exactly as described, with the sound of the sea as a backdrop. Despite the so so weather the sheltered verandah enabled us to enjoy breakfast outside on several days.

A car really is a necessity, but West Bexington proved to be a very good base for travelling out from along the coast in both directions and also to many things to do inland (including an enjoyable day trip to Stonehenge & Salisbury). There is a great deal to do within reach, with great views along the coast as you travel in either direction.

The one thing I'd comment on which we did not appreciate until we arrived is that the local beach is not suitable for bathing. Chesil Beach is quite amazing and we knew it would be shingle, so were prepared, but for much of its length - including here - it is quite steep with undercurrents so going into the water is discouraged. Ironically had the weather been better this might have been more of an irritant, but in the event on the days when it was good enough we were happy to go a few miles to other, good local beaches.

On the other hand, if you like sea fishing, it seems to be ideal !

We had a wonderful week at Chesil Beach. The description about the facilities, layout were absolutely accurate. The house was very clean and well maintained. We were especially pleased by the hospitality and friendliness of the charming owners jackie and peter. To meet people like them makes a holiday even more delightful.

Property was very clean and well maintained, dog friendly, enclosed garden, car a must to get to places of interest.

beautiful cottage and area, beach is less than 5 min walk with a coastal walk that goes for miles, lovely friendly cafe at end of road on beach front. cottage was very clean and well equiped its home from home you need not take hairdryers etc pete and jackie have thought of everything. HIGHLIGHT - being able to lay in bed and hear the sea in the distance.would recomend for a relaxing break.
