About this property

The Hideaway-A Peaceful And private location, countryside views. 2 mins to beach

The Hideaway is A lovely 2 bedroom lodge set in a peaceful location only 500 yards from the unspoilt beach. Private, quiet you can truly have a relaxing holiday. There is a small shop nearby open seasonally, where you can enjoy an ice cream and even have a cream tea or cake and freshly made sandwiches. The main bedroom has a king size bed and an en suite shower, the second bedroom has 2 full sized single beds. There is a bathroom next to this. Open plan kitchen/living/diner which is spacious and comfortable. Large decking outside to sit and relax.(Garden and deck chairs in the shed). Picnic table. Right on the Jurassic Coastline, ideal for walkers. Easy walking distance to hotel and pub serving food. Lovely walk over to West Bay. A real quiet and private getaway.

ENTRANCE AND PARKING
One of our reviews said the entrance was very narrow and put them off going out. The lane down to Eype is narrow but is wide enough for large vans i.e. Tesco, Waitrose vans, dustbin van, skip hire vans. The actual entrance to the Hideaway is up a fairly steep tarmac driveway only a few yards then you are in an open field. This entrance is also used for parking in the summer for the public and large cars can get up it. Please do not be put off by the review. If you have any concern or would like to know the actual width of the entrance please contact me. Thank you.

Great location for walks along the coastline and very quiet area right near a small beach.
Great location and the photos of the property didn't do it justice as its bigger than it looks. The lovely owners Keith and Jill live close by, so if there were any issues getting in contact would be very easy. I would highly recommend for a relaxing quiet time away or for costal walks with amazing views.

Wonderfully peaceful location.
Very private comfortable cottage. Everything provided. Very hot weather during our stay. The duvets were too hot. Missed my own lightweight one. Quite narrow road leading to cottage but got the hang of it after day one. Highly recommend it for a peaceful holiday in beautiful Dorset. Great walks. Bridport charming. Recommend sunshine cafe in Bridport.

My return to Eype
Having been on holiday in Eype before I was looking for a property that was more dog friendly. I needed a grassy area near the property. With the Hideaway, this was not a problem. There's a huge grassy area, (field!), just outside the front door. The property was comfortable and had all the mod cons. Very tidy. Clean. I was a bit surprised that tea and coffee wasn't available on arrival. Make sure you bring some with you just in case you are gasping for a cuppa when you arrive. The great thing about the Hideaway is that it's so close to the beach. Just a few minutes walk away and you're there. My dog loved it. Also, it's so close to all the walks in the area. Overall we had a wonderful stay. Thank you.

I live with my husband here in Eype and we have been fortunate to have Sealark our chalet which is right next to the beach on a small private site of only 15 chalets. We also have The Hideaway which is "hidden" in our back garden and has lovely countryside views, but still only a few hundred yards away from the beach. Being able to let others come and enjoy our chalet and the surrounding areas is a bonus for us. You can be assured that the property will be clean and fresh upon your arrival.If you are looking for peace and relaxation with wonderful views, then come and stay with us.

Why they chose this property

Quiet, peaceful and secluded. Very close to the beach. Jurassic Coastal Footpath only a minute away. Kitchen fully equipped as you would find at home.

What makes this property unique

Peace and quiet with wonderful country side views, yet only 2 minutes from the beach. The Hideaway has a very large decking area and also a grassed area, plenty of room to sit and relax without any neighbours watching over you.
