West Dorset Cottages are The Burrow, Chiddy Nook and Gingerbread Cottage, all owned by Jane and Laurie in the beautiful coastal village of Chideock between Bridport and Lyme Regis.
Chiddy Nook
Brimming with charm, Chiddy Nook was originally the Coach House to the main establishment, Warren House, so low beamed ceilings and quirky features abound in this much-loved holiday home.
Gingerbread Cottage
Gingerbread Cottage is Jane and Laurie's most recent holiday home addition, and you can see much of the same 'Chiddy Nook' charm here too. You'll love the many character features including exposed beams and window seats.
The Burrow
The Burrow in the Warren is a beautiful, thatched, stone-built self catering cottage, situated in Chideock near Bridport, in West Dorset. Sleeping 4/5 people.
Wonderful West Bay
If you are a Broadchurch follower you will recognise that nearby West Bay is Broadchurch, with the distinctive east cliffs and other stunning locations where the recent hit TV show was filmed.
The cottages sleep 5 (Burrow), 3 (Gingerbread) and 4 (Chiddy Nook) and are perfectly located near to Bridport, Lyme Regis, Charmouth and West Bay and just a 15 minute walk to the beach at Seatown.
Three Cottages Near to Each Other
Chiddy Nook and The Burrow are in the grounds of Warren House owned by Jane and Laurie and Gingerbread is just over the B&B garden wall. Each cottage has their own gardens and seating areas, perfect for whiling away a summer’s afternoon.

There were 4 adults, a 10 month old baby and a dog and we found it comfortable, cosy and warm, on a long weekend when the weather was not great it was lovely to come back to the cottage to chill after visiting some lovely beaches nearby. Jane’s place is lovely and clean and had all the amenities we needed to make our stay feel like home from home. The private, well established garden was pretty to look out onto and I’m sure would be idyllic to sit in during warmer weather. We would have no hesitation in visiting Chiddy Nook again.read less

Gingerbread Cottage is in a great location : 15 mins walk from cottage down winding lane to Seatown beach and The Anchor Pub (v popular, deservedly so, delicious food and good vegan options). From there you can walk up hill and downhill enjoying amazing views along the dramatic coastline. Other good walks nearby too. 2 pubs in Chideock a mere few minutes from the cottage. Loved The George, ate there 2 nights out of 3! Lovely atmosphere and menu, again good vegan options. Dogs allowed too. A small Spar shop in village and a big farm shop 10 mins drive out along the main road which was packed with local grown produce, homemade food, local delicacies and much much more. The cottage is exactly as the photos, has a lovely friendly atmosphere and we both slept very well in the comfy bedrooms. The front door looks across North Road to the church side door, on Sunday morning at 10.00am the bells were rung, beautifully! I read in a leaflet on the church that one of the bells was cast in the 1600s with the words “love dog” in its side instead of “love god” by mistake. There is a nice walk along North Road towards the beautiful Catholic Church past a “Wishing Tree”. A big old tree draped with tokens and little toys and flowers planted at its base. The countryside around is simply stunning, even more so I’m sure in warmer months. So much to see and do in the area we will certainly return. The cottage is a delight to retreat to at end of the day, a real little “home from home”.read less
