Short Breaks in Dorset

When travelling for a few days away in Dorset, dog-friendly accommodation is sometimes essential. Finding someone to look after your four-legged friend can be a tricky task, especially with little notice or during bank holidays. That’s why our pet-friendly cottages suitable for short breaks are a welcomed escape for families, couples or individuals who wish to head to the sea with their furry companion in tow. Many of our cottages have enclosed gardens to ensure peace of mind, and most are situated just moments away from scenic walks and wonderful trails.

Located only two hours from London, Dorset is so easy to get to by car, train, or even a ferry. So, there’s no excuse not to book a cottage for a shorter stay when a relaxing escape starts to call. Whether you’re looking for some well-earned mid-week respite or you have a long weekend of relaxation in mind, Dorset is the perfect destination.

Our cottages are well-suited to individuals, couples, families, and groups of friends and what makes a short break in Dorset so wonderful, is that they can be enjoyed all year round. Whilst summer might be the ideal time to relax on the stunning beaches and take a dip in the clear blue sea, the region is just as spectacular in Autumn and Winter.

With miles of magnificent coastline, rolling countryside, and fascinating ancient landmarks, there’s plenty to capture your heart here in Dorset. You can pack so much into a shorter stay that even if you’re only visiting for 24 hours, it’ll feel like a real escape from everyday life.
