Private detached cottage to rent on Chesil Beach

Greenbanks is the last house along the coastal path, between Abbotsbury and West Bexington, and this detached holiday property is situated on Chesil Beach and has wonderful, uninterrupted views of the sea and sky. The house has been completely refurbished, having been a much-loved second home for fifty years. It retains many of its original features including an open fire, whilst offering spacious and comfortable accommodation. Each bedroom has its own bathroom. Although its location is very private (access is down a narrow, sometimes bumpy track), it is only a 20-minute walk along the coastal path to West Bexington for the nearest pub serving food. A 15-20 minute walk towards Abbotsbury will take you to the sub-tropical gardens, whilst the local shops are 2½ miles away in Abbotsbury. Bridport, Dorchester and Weymouth are each about 10 miles away. The area is a Site of Special Scientific Interest, on account of the local flora and fauna. The walks, views and sunsets are fantastic. Shops 2½ miles, pub and restaurant 1 mile.

Ground floor: Living room with French doors leading into dining room/conservatory/snug and children's play area. One double bedroom (4.6ft). Wet room with toilet. Fully fitted and well equipped kitchen.

First floor: 3 bedrooms all with sea view. Bedroom 1: double (6ft) with en-suite bathroom with shower over bath and toilet, Bedroom 2: double (6ft) or twin (a zip and link bed), with additional single day bed, with own bathroom with shower over bath and separate toilet. Bedroom 3: double (6ft) or twin (a zip and link bed) with own shower room.

Open fire in living room (initial fuel included). Central heating from biomass wood pellet fired boiler, electricity, bed linen and towels included. High chair. A cot is available, but linen not included. Electric cooker, microwave, food processor and liquidiser, dishwasher and fridge freezer. Washing machine, tumble dryer and a second fridge/freezer in external laundry room/boot room. Wi-fi and Sky TV. Large lawned garden and a terrace with furniture and a barbecue. Ample parking. No smoking. NB: 3 steps from terrace into the lawned garden.

Absolutely wonderful
We loved our week at Greenbanks. We have stayed in many holiday homes over the years and loved pretty much all of them, but Greenbanks is an absolute star. The location is delightful and so quiet, which is great. The house is beautifully furnished and very homely. It is made extra special by the mentions and photos of Gt. Uncle Edgar and Aunt Marian and all the family books and furnishings. The kitchen is exceptionally well equipped with just about everything you need and all of it is high quality. You could even bake a cake if you really wanted to go that mad on holiday. Thank you to the lovely owners and to Nina and co for their wonderful care.

Breathtaking location
Five of us stayed in October including my 80year old parents. We had such a wonderful time. The location is stunning with sweeping views of the English Channel. The house is big and has lots of different spaces to get away from each other if you need to! Kitchen is fully equipped - you don’t need to bring anything. I also love that the house is still owned by family members, I wouldn’t ever sell it. It’s gorgeous.

Beautiful sea views from this charming house
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay - fabulous location and very well stocked house right on the beach. The house felt so homely - more like someone’s home than a rental - great cafe/restaurant 20 mins walk down the beach.Our age range was 23 through to 88 - something for everyone.

Stunning setting
The setting is a real wow. You arrive along the shingle beach and then can see no other buildings. The house is warm and comfortable. If anything there is too much kitchen equipment so there are few places to store your own. The dinning area has a fabulous. Outlook, the lounge a cosy fire. The weather whilst we were there was stormy so very exciting. The upstairs beds and baths were. excellent . The downstairs bed is comfortable but in a very small room. The wet room was vg indeed

Wonderful stay in a spectacular location
We have felt really privileged to be able to stay at this most comfortable and uniquely located holiday home. The views from inside and outside this most lovely house are breathtaking and ever changing. Waking up to the sound of the waves - it was so hard to leave. The homeowners have thought of everything to make this a beautiful and most comfortable home from home. The detailed guide along with such comforts as a wine fridge and lovely rocking chairs and swing seat to gaze at the sea and seabirds and watch the sun go down over the coast - every evening was different and a glorious way to relax. Abbotsbury is a lovely village - we swam, fell in love with the blackcurrant and clotted cream ice creams at the beach cafe, very much enjoyed the subtropical gardens, and walks up to st Catherine’s chapel, swimming, walking up golden cap etc, and We would love to come again, thank you for everything- we want to mention Shirley who is an excellent house manager - her communication is very helpful and professional Thank you for everything
