Beautiful cottage with lovely big windows, perfect for some chilled family time and good internet connection for our son, who was completing his uni work. The cottage was immaculate and well stocked with all the kitchenware we needed to cook, beds were super comfortable, shower was lovely and the location was perfect... a short stroll to the picturesque village of Osmington and the SW coastal path or ten minutes drive to Weymouth Beach.

Although recently built, this building actually seems older than the farmhouse it's next to. With oak beamed roof trusses and stone walls inside and out there is a sense of permanence about this place. Shortlake Cottage is located just off a quiet no-through-road and looks out over fields to the coast and beyond. The cottage can sleep up to 5 guests across two bedrooms (room one has one double bed, and room two consists of one double bed and one single bed). The property has all essential white goods, including a toaster, microwave, oven and hob. A high chair is also provided. Upstairs you can find the mezzanine bedroom with sea views. From the cottage, you can find The Smugglers Inn, and a couple of small shops, which are approximately just a 5 minute walk away. The walk to Shortlake Farm's private beach takes just 5 minutes or so across the fields. Well-behaved pets are welcome at Shortlake Cottage, and guests can borrow a dog from Eweleaze Farm for the day. Please note that unless specified, we will make up the double in the main bedroom.
Yes guest can contact me during there stay
The anexe is situated on farm track off a no through road, there is access to the beach. There is a bus stop at the bottom of Shortlake Lane.
