A charming traditional coastguard cottage offering breathtaking views of Lulworth Cove and the surrounding countryside. This spacious retreat, perfect for a relaxing getaway. Sleeps eight people across four spacious bedrooms.
Accommodates 8 guests across 4 bedrooms
Formerly the residence of coastguards and their families, No.2 Coastguard Cottage, has been reimagined to provide the perfect place to connect to the coast and spend quality time with family and friends. With views of the coast and countryside, four tastefully furnished bedrooms accommodate up to 8 people. Adjoining cottages can additionally be booked to accommodate larger groups, being particularly popular with multi-generational holidays. This cottage is pet-free.
Our Coastguard Cottages offer the perfect combination of comfort, accessibility and a superb location in a particularly accessible part of the Jurassic Coast – just a pebble’s throw from Lulworth Cove, with breathtaking views of England’s only natural World Heritage Site. The picturesque village of West Lulworth, along with the extraordinary features of Stair Hole, the Fossil Forest, Lulworth Crumple and the iconic rock arch of Durdle Door, are all within walking distance and linked by the South West Coast Path, placing history, safe beaches, action sports, beautiful walks and charming places to eat and drink right on your doorstep. To help you make the most of your stay, we have carefully curated a welcome folder full of information about the cottage, Lulworth and the surrounding area, and our experienced Holidays Team are always happy to offer recommendations for memorable dining or the best places to pick up local produce. For stays of three nights or more, you’ll also find a welcome pack on arrival with delicious locally produced bread, eggs, milk, biscuits, jam, tea, coffee and sugar.
Layout: No.2 Coastguard Cottages sleeps eight people across four spacious bedrooms – two with king-size beds, one with a super king and one with two single beds. One of our larger holiday cottages and with the opportunity book adjacent cottages, No.2 offers the ideal setting for spending time with family and friends.
We provide goose down and microfibre pillows, luxuriously crisp white Beaumont & Brown linen, fluffy white towels and a comfortable cotton robe for each guest.
Guests can enjoy a bright open plan sitting-dining area, designed for comfort and conversation, centred around a feature fireplace. French doors open onto the front terrace area, offering wonderful views over Lulworth Cove. To the rear, guests can enjoy a private garden, with terrace, lawn and plentiful seating to enjoy outdoor dining and relaxation. The modern kitchen is exceptionally well-equipped and includes a large oven and hob, microwave, dishwasher, fridge-freezer and washer/dryer.
On the ground floor you’ll find a spacious bathroom featuring a bath and overhead shower. The well-appointed first floor bathroom comprises a walk-in shower. Each bathroom includes our Lulworth body wash, hand soap and shampoo.
Directly outside No.2 is allocated, off-road parking for two vehicles in a privately accessed, gated driveway. Complimentary parking across the Lulworth Estate is included in your stay upon receipt of your car registration numbers, allowing you unlimited access to Durdle Door, Lulworth Cove and Lulworth Castle Park. For day trips further afield, there is a bus stop within West Lulworth village, with links to Poole, Weymouth and Swanage.
The pedestrianised street to the left of the parking area leads through the village and its many restaurants, cafes, gift shops, The Doll’s House Confectionary Shop and ice cream kiosks, down to Lulworth Cove itself. At certain points of the day, you may have the beach entirely to yourselves! In front of the Coastguard Cottages is a large, grassed area ideal for picnics and exercise, from which leads paths to Lulworth Cove and Stair Hole. Central heating and Wi-Fi are included in your holiday. Phone signal may be limited so we have provided a landline for local calls.
Please note: No.2 Coastguards is situated close to the area of the Lulworth Ranges, where military training and live firing may be heard dependent on wind direction. We recommend checking the MOD firing times in advance of your stay to help you plan accordingly by following this link.: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/lulworth-firing-notice
