About Yalbury Cottage
Yalbury Cottage suits travellers after a slower kind of break rather than a city stopover: couples wanting countryside quiet, dog owners, golfers, or cyclists using Dorchester as a base. It stands in Lower Bockhampton, Dorset, with open countryside around it and a garden for sitting out when the weather allows.
Rooms are en-suite, with family rooms available for those travelling with children, and drinks can be brought to the room. There's a restaurant on site serving breakfast and other meals, with kids' meals and packed lunches available for days out, plus free WiFi and 24 hour reception. Free on-site parking and an electric vehicle charge point are practical extras, and pets are welcome throughout.
Golf courses and cycling routes are close by for anyone wanting to fill the day, along with nearby pubs, restaurants and other eateries for evenings out. It's a straightforward base for exploring the Dorset countryside around Dorchester at an easy pace.
