“Charming little cottage.”

Well placed in quite pretty village. Ideal for travelling about Dorset’s many treasures. Owners living next-door offered us advice for the best walks and places to visit. Also good ideas in the cottage information folder. Would definitely stay there again.

“The cottage is bijou - attractively furnished and decorated.”

It is well equipped, obviously cared for. The owners were very pleasant and helpful when we had some car issues. Sadly, the one pub in the village was closed the whole time we were there.

- Karen, September 2024

We hope the issues with your car were sorted quickly. We are sorry you were inconvenienced by the pub being closed - happily it reopens on 18th October. Property Owner

Maureen August 2024

“We had a really lovely time staying in Tiddlers Cottage.”

It had all we needed and was welcoming and homely. Very clean and nicely laid out. Shower was a bit slippery but having mentioned this to the owner was soon remedied by a prompt provision of a brand new bath mat. Thank you Maxine! My husband and I will certainly consider rebooking next year.

Graham Fitzgerald June 2024

“A well-equipped and comfortable cottage set in a very quiet location with good access to many local places of interest.”

Be prepared for limited space but this is compensated for by having good quality equipment and fittings at a competitive price and access to outdoor garden and patio area. The bed and bedding were very comfortable. A king-sized bed is always appreciated as it is surprising how few owners provide beds of good size. The kitchen has everything that you might need to cook well and a recommended pub is very close by for those who want to eat out and not drive. The owners are very approachable and helpful. The local landscape is very interesting and picturesque. The local town of Bridport is full of surprises and has two excellent markets per week.

- Graham Fitzgerald, June 2024
Reece May 2024

“Lovely cottage situated in a very friendly village setting with all the facilities and equipment you need for your stay.”

- Reece, May 2024

Thank you for your comments; we are delighted you enjoyed your stay at Tiddlers. Property Owner
Sandra April 2024

“This cottage was perfect for us.”

Maxine was around if we needed her. We ate out locally at the pub next door but one and up the road in the Loders Arms both were excellent. Can highly recommend the cottage.

- Sandra, April 2024

Thank you for your kind comments. Property Owner

- Kirstee, March 2024

- Cyrus, March 2024
John November 2023

“Fantastic little cottage with everything you need.”

Great for exploring the surrounding Jurassic coast. The Crown Inn (only 100 metres away) is a small local pub that serves really good food made on the premises - don't forget to book though!!

- John, November 2023

Thanks for your comments about Tiddlers; glad you also enjoyed the pub. Property Owner
Marilyn October 2023

“Tiddlers cottage did exactly what was said on the tin.”

A clean comfortable property with a charming outlook. The owners were so helpful, providing secure storage in their garage for our electric bikes and even leaving a book of local cycle rides out for us to peruse.We appreciated the milk and local biscuits left for us.

- Marilyn, October 2023

Glad that you found Tiddlers to your liking. Property Owner
Lesley October 2023

“We had a lovely time at Tiddlers Cottage which was completely relaxing with beautiful surroundings.”

The cottages owners although living next door were there if needed and were very helpful...there is a private garden to yourselves. The garden is stunning, we had rain,sun and Babet ! but that didnt stop us sitting out in it. Bridport Market held every Weds & Sat is well worth a visit. We would recommend visiting The Hive at Burton Bradstock, it has the best Fish & Chips and Crab sandwiches and is situated right on the beach.

- Lesley, October 2023

So glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
Barry October 2023

“"Tiddlers Cottage was a real gem of a property set in a pretty village, only a stone's throw from the local pup.”

Small but very tastefully furnished, the accommodation provided all the amenities for an enjoyable stay and the comprehensive information pack proved very useful. The sunny seating areas, surrounded by a beautiful garden, were an added bonus. We would thoroughly recommend this property.

“Lovely cottage in quiet village.”

Close to the coast with plenty of walks along the coast and inland too. Wish my stay had been longer as the owners were very friendly and helpful advising other places I could visit/walk. If you plan to eat at the pub in the village, make sure you book in advance.

Kenrick August 2023

“This was a great stay in a lovely little cottage.”

The cottage itself was very clean and had all the facilities, equipment and information you needed, the only thing we found a little uncomfortable where the two armchairs in the living room (maybe a two seater settee would be better) that said it is our personal opinion. It was a very relaxing break and thank you to the owners of the cottage who were a fountain of information and made us feel very welcome.

- Kenrick, August 2023
Lynette July 2023

Well-positioned in the charming village of Uploders near Bridport, Dorset is this charming, one-bedroom cottage, Tiddlers Cottage.

Aptly named and benefitting from an enclosed garden and an enviable position within the Dorset AONB, Tiddlers Cottage welcomes two guests, perfect for a couple or even two friends sharing who are seeking a peaceful getaway in Dorset.

After parking up, enter your new home-from-home to discover a quaint but well-equipped kitchen, with all the necessities required to ease your self-catered stay; rustle up a delicious, home-cooked meal before settling down at the dining table, ready to tuck in over a bottle of fizz!

If you prefer to dine alfresco, why not take advantage of the wonderful, enclosed garden and pop corks until the sun sets in the distance?

Alternatively, on cooler evenings, curl up in the inviting sitting room and click on the TV, ready to catch up on your favourite shows before washing away the day in the sleek en-suite shower room and getting some well-earned slumber.

In the morning, after delighting your morning coffee in amongst your pretty surroundings, head to the coast to spend the day exploring the charming coastal village of West Bay, located just a short drive away; enjoy stunning views of the Jurassic Coast, enjoy a leisurely walk along the beach or visit the iconic West Bay Harbour.

Head into Bridport to uncover the Bridport Market, held every Wednesday and Saturday in the town centre; sample a range of fresh produce, local crafts and more before stepping back in time at the Bridport Museum where you can learn more about the area’s history and heritage.

If you’re seeking a more challenging past-time, lace up your walking boots and embark on a hike to Golden Cap, the highest point on the south coast of England, soak in the stunning panoramic sights from the summit and snap a photo or two!

Further afield, spend the day in the pretty town of Lyme Regis, famous for its fossils and connection to the novel ‘The French Lieutenant’s Woman’, it is a fabulous spot to take a walk along the Cobb and round off your adventures before refuelling with some hearty pub grub nearby.

And why not relax next door at the award winning Crown Pub, booking in advance is advisable.

About the location

BRIDPORT

Lyme Regis 10 miles; West Bay 2 miles.

The attractive market town of Bridport grew up around the River Brit, and was shaped by its extensive history of rope and net making. The long, wide streets and alleyways between the houses were once where the flax strands were twisted into rope, while today those streets are filled with an interesting variety of shops, restaurants and inns. Bridport’s market is regularly featured on the River Cottage TV programme. 2 miles south of Bridport is the dramatic Jurassic coast at West Bay, now a World Heritage Site, home to the backdrop for TV's Harbour Lights and the coastal setting for popular Broadchurch, whilst the picturesque resort of Lyme Regis is within 10 miles. A superb base for exploring wonderful West Dorset.

Note: Owner only accepts a minimum 3 night stay.
