Little Westport is a charming 1960s Colt House, in a peaceful setting with a large garden overlooking the Purbeck Hills. A perfect location for a short break to enjoy walking, cycling or exploring the area. Having 4 bedrooms, Little Westport is ideal for a family holiday with numerous nearby attractions and activities for children. All the amenities of the Saxon walled town of Wareham are just a 5 minute walk away and just a short drive to the beautiful sandy beaches of Studland bay.
Tucked away down a private lane, with a large garden, Little Westport really feels far from the madding crowd, yet it's so close to everything you need. The bungalow is set in a quiet residential area and is not suitable for hen/stag nights, events or partying.
There's much to see and do in Dorset, with its un-spoilt natural beauty - stunning coastline, rolling hills, forests and golden sandy beaches. The amazing features of the Jurassic coast - Durdle Door, Lulworth Cove and the Fossil Forest are not to be missed. The South West coast path is a walker's paradise and the area abounds with cycle routes both gentle and challenging. Poole Harbour is superb for sailing and boating. There are numerous nearby places of interest and National Trust treasures like Kingston Lacy, Corfe Castle, Studland Nature Reserve, Brownsea Island, Hardy's cottage and Clouds Hill. As well as glorious sandy beaches with safe swimming, children can enjoy Weymouth Sea Life Adventure Park, Monkey World, Swanage Steam Railway, Dorset Water Park, Kimmeridge Jurassic Marine Life Museum, Tower Park, as well as riding stables, children's farms and much more. With the seaside resorts of Weymouth, Poole, Swanage and Bournemouth easily accessible, the list is endless. The small market town of Wareham is ideally placed to explore all of this.
The Saturday market on the Quay has fresh local produce and there's a farmer's market most Thursdays. Wareham boasts its own independent cinema, a museum, art galleries and boat hire on the quay. The Purbeck Sports Centre with swimming pool and tennis courts is 5 mins from the bungalow, and there's a children's playground just across the road.
Wareham station is in walking distance with trains between London and Weymouth every half hour.

We have had a lovely few days spent in such a lovely home from
home accommodation. Thank you for the gift of wine and milk much
appreciated. The outlook from your lounge window is so tranquil and
beautiful weather being exceptional.
Thanks for a great stay ! Great walk on the headland below Worth
Matravers and a pint in the Square & Compass .... Love the
bright bay windows.
Super accommodation which suited our family needs. Location
excellent for visiting attractions. Bungalow very well equipped
with 2 small grandchildren and cleaned to a high standard.
The house is well design with bedrooms off a separate hall so children can sleep whilst the adults can relax. The owners have thought of everything with games, books, toys buckets and spades. The kitchen is well designed with everything you would need. Lovely welcome pack to see you in on arrival. It was great to sit out on the quiet terrace surrounded by a long garden with a backdrop of trees not overlooked wonderful
Location great, quiet area but walking distance in to Wareham.
Will be back ?
Lovely accommodation with everything provided. Spotlessly clean.
Love the location - see you next year.
For ornithologists RSPB Arne is only a short drive away.
A fantastic bungalow in a beautiful setting. Very well equipped
and spotlessly clean. Excellent area for bird watching with Arne
RSPB so close
Thank you for a lovely week with fantastic
weather.
Thank you for a wonderful home away from home. Beautiful,
comfortable, special.
Lovely well-equipped bungalow. Very rare in self-catering. The
view from the lounge wonderful
We have all had a fabulous stay at Little Westport. The location
is perfect and the accommodation superb! It has everything you need
and so clean and well presented. Our family have all had a lovely
time here. Ideal for the children (they loved the books!). We will
definitely be back again in the future. Thank you so much.
Everything there we needed. Thank you for the wine!
And a green woodpecker in the garden.
The location and views were stunning. Will definitely be returning.
The bungalow was a very good standard and easily spacious for all of us (six adults and two children).
Having a three and a half year-old grandson (and a baby) meant we had to move a lot of jugs and tiles that could have been easily broken.
The bungalow was well equipped and had everything you could ever need.
Little Westport was really well located, we could walk to shops, pubs and the river. We could also drive to all of the attractions that we wanted to visit within 20 minutes.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, would recommend and hope to come again.
The only thing that I think the cottage lacked was recycling facilities - it looked as though houses in the area had recycling bins but we could only recycle glass. I think people would recycle cardboard and plastic if a separate bin was available.
One day it would be nice if a shower could be fixed over the bath.
It is very much the sort of place that would call us back.
We left a note to say that there is an ants' nest outside the patio door. The door is also quite difficult to open and we think the lock probably needs replacing.
I can live here, space,nature,walking,shopping, train and bus.
Perfect
Note: Perhaps a smaller light point in the kitchen
Wareham is a great location too!
We have to come back very soon!
We had 3 generations staying here and all enjoyed the break. It is in a very quiet location but convenient for the local Wareham amenities.
It is a well equipped, lovely bungalow. We liked the fact that the kitchen was quite separate to the bedrooms so that no one was woken up earlier than they wanted.
Our 2 Grandchildren, aged 8 and 6 could have done with twin beds as one of them sleeps like a star fish!
Would certainly stay here again.
I would like to say something, we missed a book of walks in the area and what a pitty was that there was no garden furniture stood in the large garden.
On the balcony was a small table with 4 chairs, while the house for 8 people.
We are very pleased with the house.
Kind regards
