🐾 Dog-Friendly Weymouth

Bringing your four-legged friend to Dorset? There are so many lovely places to explore together around Weymouth. 💚

🌊 Bowleaze Cove – dogs are welcome all year round and it’s a lovely spot for a coastal wander.

🐾 Weymouth Beach – there’s a designated dog-friendly section near the Pavilion all year round, and from 1st October to 30th April dogs can enjoy the main sandy beach too.

🌿 Greenhill to Overcombe – another lovely stretch where dogs are welcome all year.

🥾 South West Coast Path – perfect for stretching your legs a little further and taking in some of our beautiful Dorset coastline.

⚓ Weymouth Harbour & Nothe – a favourite for a wander, with plenty of places to stop along the way.

And back at Wild Meadow Cottages, you don’t have to go far for a walk either. We have our own large field just a stone’s throw from the cottages — perfect for getting out with your dog first thing in the morning or for that last little wander of the day. 🐕🌿

We’re definitely a dog-loving family here at Wild Meadow! These are our three Maddy, Lottie & Indie 🐶🐶🐶

There’s something rather lovely about Weymouth at this time of year 🤍

The summer crowds have gone, the beach is quieter and it’s the perfect time to wrap up, take a long stroll along the seafront and just enjoy being by the sea.

And afterwards? Back to your cottage, pop the log burner on, pour yourself something nice and sink into your own private hot tub. ♨️

We’re getting really booked up now, with just a small amount of availability remaining in November and a little more in December.

Sometimes a few quiet days away is exactly what’s needed. 🥰

How about treating that special someone to a little escape before the Christmas rush begins? ❤️

A few days to slow down, switch off and enjoy some time together before the main event begins.

Sometimes the best treat isn’t something you wrap… it’s time together. 🥂✨

A guest recently asked if we had a slow cooker and, although we didn’t at the time, it got me thinking… actually, what a great idea! 😊

Imagine popping something in before heading out for a day exploring beautiful Dorset, then coming back to the cottage with that lovely smell of dinner cooking. 🍲

Hot tub, log burner on, PJs, a good film and dinner ready and waiting… now that sounds like a holiday! 🔥❤️

So we now have a slow cooker in each cottage! Hopefully the guest who gave me the idea will be back to make good use of one next time. 😊

Making memories 💕

Last weekend Rob and I took some of the grandkids on a boat trip from Lulworth Cove to Durdle Door and it was amazing! 🚤☀️

We all loved it. Seeing Durdle Door and the coastline from the sea was just stunning and the boat ride was great fun — definitely one of those afternoons we’ll remember.

We just turned up and booked when we got there. It was £25 for adults and £15 for children and parking at Lulworth Cove was £9 for 3 hours. We took a picnic with us and made an afternoon of it.

If you’re staying at the cottages, we can really recommend this one. Such a lovely way to spend a few hours and well worth the money.

Real memory box stuff 💕

Little local gems & perfect picnic spots ☀️🌊🧺

Sometimes the simplest days are the most enjoyable — and they don’t need to cost a fortune. Pack a picnic, grab some fish & chips or stop for coffee and cake and enjoy some of our favourite local spots.

🐟🍟 Bowleaze — we enjoyed fish & chips overlooking beautiful Weymouth Bay. A pretty special view with dinner!

☕ Café Oasis at Overcombe — right on the beach with lovely views across the bay. Perfect for a coffee, breakfast or lunch by the sea.

🛝 Lodmoor Country Park — lots of open space, a great play area for the children and plenty of room to find a spot for a picnic.

🌸 Greenhill Gardens — beautiful gardens overlooking the sea. Take a picnic and you may even catch some live music on selected summer days.

🌿 Radipole Park & Gardens — lovely walks, a great play area and plenty of places to enjoy a picnic, with drinks and food available too.

🌳 Thorncombe Woods — beautiful woodland walks and trails. Pack a picnic and make an afternoon of it — perfect for families and four-legged friends too.

💦 Upwey Wishing Well & Water Gardens — wander through the pretty gardens before stopping at the tearoom for coffee, lunch or a homemade cake. 🍰☕

🦆 Moreton Ford — a lovely spot to take a picnic and enjoy a paddle in the River Frome on a warm summer’s day.

Sometimes you don’t need a big day out — just a picnic, some sunshine, a beautiful view and time together. 💛

Explore Dorset… then come back, close the gate and relax. 🌿

After a day discovering Dorset’s beautiful Jurassic Coast, beaches, countryside and pretty villages, there’s something rather lovely about coming back to your own little retreat.

Both of our luxury self-catering cottages have their own private, secluded back garden, fully enclosed for those bringing a dog, with a covered private hot tub and plenty of space to sit back and enjoy the peace.

Pour a glass of something nice, sink into the bubbles and enjoy some proper quality chill time. ❤️

The perfect end to a day exploring places like The Fleet, Chesil Beach, Lulworth Cove, Durdle Door and everything our beautiful part of Dorset has to offer.

Sometimes the best part of going out for the day is knowing what you’re coming back to. 🌿🥂
