Family Holiday Cottages in Bridport

Bridport sits a short way back from Dorset’s Jurassic Coast, giving families a lively market town base within easy reach of West Bay and the surrounding cliffs and beaches. Staying in a family holiday cottage in Bridport means you can dip into the bustle of the town’s markets, cafés and independent shops, then be on the seafront at West Bay in a few minutes’ drive for sand, shingle and harbour life. The mix of coast path, playgrounds and fish and chip shops makes it straightforward to build days that work for different ages.

You might spend a morning on the beach at West Bay, walk a short stretch of the South West Coast Path up to the cliff tops, then head back into Bridport for ice creams, a park visit or a look around the markets. On other days, you can strike out further along the Jurassic Coast or into the countryside, knowing you have your holiday home to return to when everyone has had enough. Having your own base nearby makes it easy to juggle naps, early teas and quieter evenings after big days out.
