The Secret Garden (cottage)

Home description

The Secret Garden is situated in a quiet road only a stones throw from the pretty Beaminster square.
With its excellent selection of small shops, including butchers, bakers, deli, pharmacy, fruit shop and a real French Patisserie there really is no need to go to a bigger town unless you so wish.
There is of course several good pubs and Restaurants to choose from.
The cottage itself is a cosy base for small families, couples, walkers and indeed any one seeking a relaxing break.

Then the best part of all - The Secret Garden, a huge cottage garden set slightly away from the cottage ( safe access ) . There is play equipment as well as garden benches and a barbecue for you to enjoy. Also off road parking and a garage.

All our guests are welcomed personally by us and in the cottage local biscuits, milk, tea and coffee await you after your journey,

The West Country / Dorset region

The West Country boasts not only the most stunning beaches in the UK, but also a spectacular coast line. In the far east of the region in Dorset you will find The World Heritage " Jurrassic Coast ". A great desination for every one, families, walkers, cyclists and those seeking complete relaxation. In land there are dozens of beautiful villages and rural landscapes made famous by Thomas Hardy, and more recently West Dorset itself featured in Hugh Fearnley Whittingstalls River Cottage". So whether you are looking for rock pooling in Lyme Regis, fossil hunting in Charmouth, foodie shopping in Bridport or simply walking the coast path, Dorset is the ideal destination.

Beaminster area

Beaminster itself is in the heart of rural West Dorset, it is a beautiful small town clustered around The Square. The predominant stone is local hamstone giving the whole place a mellow glow. In the town itself there is a fine range of local stores with everything you need for self catering, ranging from excellent butchers, fruit and veg, deli and patisserie to a mini co-op.
There are great pubs in the area for when you do not wish to cook, for instance The Bottle inn at Marshwood made famous for the Stinging Nettle Eating Championships in July. Beaminster itself has several good pubs and a smart Brasserie for a real treat.
With the coast only 15 minutes away and endless hillforts and footpaths to explore your stay with us will fly by all too quickly.
