Description

Located at Eype's Mouth, you can enjoy tranquil beach days, and peaceful walks exploring Dorset's South West Coastline during your stay. This beautiful chalet style property offers bright and airy, contemporary features, and the perfect space for a small gathering, all with breath-taking uninterrupted sea views.

You will be welcomed with a decked platform with outside seating, from where you can enjoy panoramic views of the coast. As you enter The Billy Shed through glass sliding doors, a comfortable and sociable open-plan sitting, dining and kitchen area, awaits you. With all of the accommodation situated on the same level in this single storey chalet, you will find the three bedrooms and one bathroom at the rear. The double bedroom, twin bedroom and separate single bedroom have contemporary decor, and comfortable beds. The family bathroom includes a bath with overhead shower, hand basin and WC.

Just a short drive away you will find the market town of Bridport, with its famous street market, independent shops and restaurants, and it is well worth a visit. If you are a fan of the ITV series Broadchurch, the chalet used in the first series is opposite The Billy Shed, and West Bay where the series was based is just a short drive away, where you can see many familiar sights, including the popular harbour.

There is so much to be enjoyed on the doorstep of this beautiful property, with the coast path heading east and west, and the nearby coastal villages of Burton Bradstock, West Bexington and Seatown. However, don’t let that stop you from exploring a little further, with Chesil beach, Charmouth, Lyme Regis, Abbotsbury, Weymouth and Portland all just a pleasant drive away, along Dorset's famous coastal road. For more energetic pursuits, the walk up to the top of nearby Golden Cap is highly recommended, affording wonderful views all along the coastline from this highest point of the South Coast.

Whether it is a relaxing day with a good book admiring the views, adventures at the beach, or venturing out to explore this special part of South Dorset, a stay at The Billy Shed will always be memorable.

Our second stay here and the weather has been more like Autumn so sadly no swimming, however the comfort of this super place made it lovely - to read on the sofa while weather watching, the beds are so comfortable too! A wet walk around Eggerdon Hill Fort and an explore around the lanes and hills behind Bridport was lovely, no doubt we will be back again.

We had a super week in The Billy Shed. We swam every day from the beach. Many sunsets watched from the deck. Much exploring done. We love Bridport and its eccentric arty atmosphere - good mucic in the pubs, great finding the art quarter, what a find! Great food at The Three Horseshoes in Burton Bradstock and The Anchor at Seatown. We would love to come back here again. It was all perfect, loved the books and the lampshades!

The annual family trip to Eype, another lovely week with standard summer weather of glorious sunshine and storms that forced the fishermen to cancel our first deep sea fishing trip with the boys aged 9 & 11. We made do with crab netting and rock pooling, catching baby lobster in the rock pools at the sea end of the beach towards Lyme.Already looking forward to next year!

I absolutely love staying at the Billy Shed! Amazing location which is right on the coast with amazing access to the beach and cliffs, yet has privacy. Many a happy hour spent gazing at the sea, moon and stars from the comfort of the sofa, and I sleep so well with the fresh air and sound of the waves. A beautiful home away from home with everything we need plus lots of thoughtful touches.

A stunning location, very quickly becoming a ‘happy place’ indeed. No need to go anywhere once at the Billy Shed but, if you fancy, unspoilt Bridport and Burton Bradstock to explore to the ‘left’ or Seatown and Lyme Regis, to the ‘right’. We will be back!”
