Eight Maids a Milking
Chilcombe, Bridport
One of ten cosy and comfortable self-catered cottages that offer unparalleled access to the often-overlooked jewel of Dorset's Jurassic coast, this one-bedroom cottage is set within 20 acres of unspoiled countryside, evoking a feeling of 19th-century rural life that featured so prominently in Thomas Hardy's famous novels.
Step inside this former farm building, and you'll be greeted by an elegantly simple interior, with a cosy seating area set around a coal-effect electric fireplace, a dining area behind, and the kitchen disappearing around the corner.
