Welcome to Holly Cottage and The Anchorage

Holly Cottage, Milton Abbas   

Holly Cottage is a picture book white thatched semi-detached cottage situated in the beautiful village of Milton Abbas, comprising identical cottages nestling in a wooded valley that slopes gently down to a fishing lake. The village, designed by Capability Brown, was relocated from its original site at nearby Milton Abbey. Each cottage has a broad sloping lawn at the front, which creates the feeling of an extensive village green and is a lovely place to sit with a glass of wine and to watch the world go by.

The Hambro Arms, a stones throw from the cottage, offers a log fire in the winter and good food all year round. There is a General Store opposite the cottage which supplies basic groceries and some old world charm and further down the village towards the lake the Tea Clipper provides lunches and delicious afternoon teas. The local area has much to offer and discover including nearby Milton Abbey. The coves and beaches of the Dorset coast including Lulworth Cove and Studland are around 30 minutes away. Holly Cottage is available to non-smokers only and we do not allow pets at the cottage. Weeks are available from £295 low season to £575 peak including fuel and linen.
