The Willows, Weymouth
Pet-Friendly, Spacious Coastal Retreat For Two in Dorset.
Situated on our serene working farm on the Dorset Coast, The Willows is a delightful, recently renovated one-bedroom cottage ideal for couples or lone travellers seeking a tranquil, rural break. A short walk from the cottage, you will discover the breathtaking Chesil Beach, a part of Dorset's Jurassic Coastline. Despite its one-bedroom layout, The Willows offers ample space for two people. The main living area features a well-equipped kitchen space and a cosy sitting area with a sofa and a log fire. A table is set for you to enjoy a meal together, and French windows lead out onto a secluded south-facing patio with garden furniture, perfect for unwinding with a drink in the evening. The bedroom can be made up as a double or twin. The bathroom contains a bath and a shower attachment. There are also laundry facilities. Nearby, you will find the Old Stable with table tennis and a Foosball Table Football game. In addition, there is an extensive collection of novels for you to borrow and a free wifi hotspot to catch up on your emails and social media.
We strive to accommodate your needs with our flexible booking arrangements. While we typically offer weekly breaks running from Friday to Friday and short breaks out of season - a 3-night break running from Friday to Monday and a 4-night break running from Monday to Friday, we are more than willing to adjust to your schedule if you have different requirements.
Open fields surround the cottage to explore; for the very energetic, you can easily join the Coastal Footpath. The village of Langton Herring has its own pub, The Elm Tree, which is about a 5-minute walk away. Also, there is the Kings Arms Pub in nearby Portesham, which we highly recommend.
The Willows is on the edge of the small village of Langton Herring, 3 miles from the seaside town of Weymouth. You can walk a short distance from the cottage to the Fleet and Chesil Beach, which forms part of the famous Jurassic Coast recently featured in the top-rated TV series "Broadchurch". We farm most of the land surrounding the Willows and are always delighted to show guests around the dairy to see the cows being milked. Youngsters also like to lend a hand feeding the baby calves! Langton Herring has a pub called the Elm Tree Inn, a short walk from the cottage. In the next-door village, Portesham, you will find the Kings Arms, which we highly recommend.
Weymouth is popular for its lovely sandy beach and shallow waters. It also has other attractions such as Sea Life Center, Nothe Fort, Brewers Quay, karting and a multiplex cinema. Nearby, Dorchester has a good selection of restaurants, such as Nandos, Waggamamas, Carluccios, and Cote, located near the newly opened Brewers Square.
Dorset is a treasure trove of attractions and activities, sure to pique your interest and keep you entertained. Explore the stunning country houses and gardens, delve into history at the Tank Museum in Bovington, or visit the beloved Monkey World. And don't forget to indulge in the local culture at the many fantastic country pubs.

Fantastic Cottage
Fantastic holiday cottage and great location.
The local pub in the village serves great food but the best has to be a few miles away at Seatown - The Anchors inn great food and great views
Idyllic Dorset Location
“This is the most beautiful place to stay in the most idyllic location - utterly quiet and peaceful with the most stunning views. The patio got the sun in time for breakfast and right in to the evening and the whole place was just lovely, with any numbers of fantastic walks and views in all directions.”
Spacious and clean cottage
“Loved it. Would stay here again. The cottage is spacious and spotlessly clean. It had lovely personal touches. Perfect for our 2 greyhounds. Nice quiet location. Jake is very friendly and helpful.”
Lovely Willlows
Absolutely loved our stay at the Willows, it was perfect for us and our puppy! The location is amazing - deep in the Dorset countryside with only a short drive into the heart of Weymouth! Loved waking up on the first morning to say hello to the Belted Galloways in the fields around the cottage.
Peaceful Cottage
The Willows is a lovely cottage in a peaceful location. Everything you want is provided. Good heating, log fire, great kitchen, comfortable bed etc. Hosts were great and made sure everything was ok. Recommend and will definitely be making a return visit.
Wonderful stay.
We had a wonderful holiday in Langton Herring, the cottage was in a wonderful location very spacious and very comfortable.
It was so beautifully quiet as well, which was perfect for a relaxing holiday.
Also the location was very handy for trips out to the surrounding attractions.
Very much a home from home. Highly recommended.
There is the Elm Tree Inn in the village itself but we found the Kings Arms in nearby Portesham which had excellent food and very good service.
It’s a half hour drive along the coast to West Bay (Broadchurch) and neighbouring Bridport and a little further in the opposite direction to Weymouth and Portland Bill, well worth a visit.
