Bathroom: Bath With Shower Over, Toilet. Heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Cot and highchair. Enclosed garden with patio, garden furniture and barbecue. Garage parking for 1 car. Private parking for 1 car. No smoking. . Hambury House is a stunning, new build, thatched cottage in the beautiful village of West Lulworth.
The property has been tastefully designed to delicately incorporate traditional features such as a thatched roof and wooden ceiling beams into the build, whilst retaining a contemporary feel. The kitchen has extensive kitchen/cooking equipment for the amateur chef and the dining room has an extending dining table seating eight guests.
Situated in the heart of the village, the property is within a short walk of the village stores and a couple of pubs including a 16th-century thatched tavern reputed to be one of the oldest public house in Dorset.
Known as the Gateway to the Jurassic Coast, West Lulworth is situated within a scenic 10 minute stroll of the picturesque Lulworth Cove, a sheltered horse-shoe shaped natural harbour.
Historically, the cove was notorious as a popular landing point for smugglers looking to land their illicit booty. Today a fleet of fishing trawlers are based in the cove as well as pleasure boats offering scenic day voyages along the coast. Its sheltered position makes the cove particularly popular with beachgoers looking to sunbathe and swim.
Lulworth Cove is only half a mile from Durdle Door, an iconic natural limestone arch which has featured in several music videos, television productions and movies such as Nanny McPhee.
Weymouth and Portland, official Olympic 2012 sailing venues, are within a 20-mile drive.

A few days away.
Lovely property and a beautiful area. Property was well equipped and all very clean. A couple of points though as feed back. We found it difficult to operate the TV. And had an issue with the bathroom locks that could not be opening from the outside. We had a 3year old in our party who locked himself in until we made him understand that he needed to push the bolt aside. Just a small point but it was a bit of a worry at the time. We all had a lovely time though and will hopefully come back some time in the future.

Perfect location and lovely cottage
It was and extended family holiday. From a location perspective it couldn't have been better. We walked down to Lulworth cove every morning (literally 5 mins walk). Easy reach to Durdle Door. Several places to eat and drink within a short walk.
The cottage was just lovely. Really spacious so we all had some privacy but lovely family spaces to eat, play games and relax. Lovely closed in garden which is great with small kids and a dog! Already looking at booking again for next year

Hambury House
The property is fabulous, done to a high standard with a superbly equipped kitchen. Unfortunately our holiday was spoilt as the ensuite shower leaked through the dining room ceiling light on the first morning and the ensuite toilet broke. Despite notifying the property manager there were lots of excuses but the shower was not fixed until the last day and the toilet was not repaired when we left. Also the shower in the main bathroom did not work and was not repaired so all 7 of us had to use one ensuite shower for the entire stay. The Dining room could not be used in the evenings as the water leak had fused the lights.
