Short House, Chesil Beach

We stayed at short house for 4 nights and had a wonderful time.
The weather, location and house was fabulous from start to finish. 
Andrew is a kind and helpful man who takes great care in his guests experience.
I would highly recommend Short house and its beautiful views.

Happy days at Short house

The house was wonderful with every possible equipment including cot , high chair and blow up bed. The walk down to the beach was achieved by all including 82 year old with disabilities. Andrew was very helpful allowing us to use the electric car charger, leaving extra spades and buckets for the 3 year old in the sandpit and making a special journey out on Saturday for replacement fire alarms. Enormous fun introducing our 3 year old Grandson to tennis and being a ball boy. Great meat and veg at Tamarisk farm shop. Thank you to everyone.. we will be back.

Blissful week in amazing location

Helped by glorious weather, we so enjoyed our stay at Short House - Mum (99) Val (86) Daisy (spaniel aged 3) and me . Andrew was very welcoming and helpful at booking and when we arrived, explaining everything we needed to know and how we'd best manage with Mum in the wheelchair. Beautiful furnishings extrmely well equipped kitchen, and such a fantastic view and overall quiet birdsong, no traffic noise location. Daisy and I loved the daily walk through the field down to the sea and there was plenty to see and do in the area - and great places to eat. Friends staying in the Manor House nearby came to supper with us one night, and there was plenty of everything to accomodate us all. 
Overall a great stay and we hope to come back soon.

Fantastic stay

An idyllic retreat on the Dorest coast. A well maintained property perfectly located near the beach and coastal path.  Stunning walks with breathtaking views, especially over Wears Hill to Abbotsbury.  Plenty of interesting places to visit and excellent fish restaurants in Lyme Regis and Weymouth.  We would certainly visit again. 

Idyllic retreat

We stayed at Short House over Christmas 2020 and what a great choice we made, it was like home from home with the added luxury of picturesque surroundings, a beautiful beach just a stones throw from your cottage door!

We required disabled access as my partner is tetraplegic, we managed very well with in and out access (small lip on front entrance but easily maneuvered over this). There is direct flat access to the master bedroom from the side of the cottage with amazing sea views from both bedrooms.  Andrew was extremely thoughtful to our needs and ensured we had everything we could need to ensure our stay was as leisurely as possible.

10 minute drive into Bridport for all supermarkets etc, wine merchants.

Our dog loved the free run of Andrews horse field on our morning walks to the beach (running away from me on the beach to find her back in the field rolling in horse poop ha).

Cleanliness 10/10. Excellent range of pots, pans and utensils.
Glassware and tableware good supply, appear as new.
Washing machine and dryer, heated towel rails, hive thermostat, towels of plenty! Andrew has thought of everything.

We hope to book again in the summer time but even for Christmas the weather was simply beautiful, much more to do than I have mentioned but our time was to relax and enjoy some quality time in pure isolation it was truly amazing and we would highly recommend Andrew and his amazing cottage, as well as the helpful groundsman who assisted in accommodating our needs, to all.

Thank you again for an amazing experience.
