Car parking is very tight and in the end we parked on the road as felt safer as access is a problem..

Ivy Cottage was brilliantly located for our family - we had trips out to Lyme Regis, Sherborne, Tolpuddle and Brownsea Island.. West Lulworth is a beautiful location - and the fact that we could walk from the cottage to Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door was fabulous. The cottage was very comfortable for 5 of us and a dog - and having 2 bathrooms was very helpful! The fully enclosed garden meant not having to worry about whether the dog could escape and it was a very pleasant garden to sit in during the evening. Reversing into the parking space was a slight challenge but we had perfected it by the end of the week.

We had a brilliant long weekend staying with good friends in Ivy Cottage.. ...a perfect base for visiting The Flying Scotsman at Swanage Steam Railway. The cottage was spotlessly clean, very comfortable and very pretty with lots of character. We would love to come back one day.

We absolutely loved staying in this cottage for a long weekend this February celebrating my daughter’s special birthday with family.. We were so very warm and cosy and comfortable and it felt very welcoming on arrival with milk and Prosecco in the fridge and a packet of biscuits etc to start us off-very thoughtful. Such olde-worlde quaint features -lovely decor and furnished well. Spacious -ultra clean -very homely and well equipped . Loved the log burner -great focal point . Even a nice little secure garden for our little dog. Photos don’t do it justice. Location excellent -easy walking distance to Lulworth Cove and conveniently situated next door to the very friendly local village pub -great atmosphere and good food! Also a choice of lovely Tea Shops/Restaurants and a local handy convenience store! We didn’t need to drive once! Other longer costal walks available to Durdle Door etc This wonderful cottage and location ticked all the boxes -no complaints -so much so I would like to return again soon as we had such lovely time -great memories!
