This charming little retreat is nestled on the edge of West Lulworth with quick and easy access to the South-West Coast Path. Completely refurbished in 2023, the cozy cottage has a well-equipped modern kitchen with a brand-new electric oven, hob, dishwasher, microwave, fridge, wine-cooler and washer/dryer. The open-plan living and dining area has wooden floors, a comfortable seating space with sofa, armchairs and a smart TV, a dining table and chairs and a delightful log burner for colder evenings.
The private front and rear gardens are perfect for soaking up the summer sun or enjoying a barbecue. The front garden is an enclosed lawned area, whilst the rear garden features a raised wooden deck up 4 steps. There is a charcoal barbeque and garden table and chairs.
The first floor boasts two bedrooms, including a king-size bed in the first bedroom with built-in wardrobes and scenic countryside views. The second bedroom features a bunk bed and a separate single bed, along with convenient storage space.
There is a newly-fitted family bathroom on the first floor complete with bath, separate shower, WC, heated towel rail and basin.
The cottage is accessed via a gravelled footpath which is up two steps from Bindon Road, a private, unsurfaced road off Main Road, the main village road leading down to the Cove. The front door leads into a slate-floored hallway with room for walking boots and coats.
Juniper Cottage is not just a holiday home: it's a gateway to a quintessential Dorset experience. Explore the renowned Jurassic coastline with ease, indulge in local dining experiences, and discover the charm of West Lulworth and Lulworth Cove within a short walk. For families, the cove is just a 10-minute stroll away, offering activities like swimming, crabbing, pebble painting, and indulging in delicious local ice cream. In the summer, thrill-seekers can embark on a "Rib Ride" or join a kayak tour of the cove, while snorkelling enthusiasts will find a rich marine habitat waiting to be explored. Monkey World is only 6 miles away. For walkers, as well as the South-West Coast Path and miles of coastal paths, there are lots of public footpaths and trails locally, as well as in the nearby Purbeck Hills.
The village shop is close by, stocking all essentials during the summer months. There are many farm shops selling local produce in the vicinity, as well as a little supermarket in Wool (4 miles). Nearby Wareham provides a broader range of shopping.
Juniper Cottage warmly welcomes up to 2 well-behaved small dogs with a nominal £25 charge. With fully enclosed gardens, it's the ideal spot for a family getaway by the coast with your four-legged friends.
Please note that parking is available on a first-come basis at the end of Bindon Road, as the cottage is accessed via a footpath only. There is also parking in the village (Church Road) and a large, pay to park, car park at the Cove.
