About Doves Cottage

“May we rent the cottage at the edge of the sea?" is a question we are asked hundreds of times every year. The answer is, "Yes”! Doves Cottage is the most sought-after holiday property enjoying a unique position and interesting history.

Once a 'tap house’ giving a warm welcome to sailors, it has steps from the door into the sea. Every window has a sea view and access to the cottage is via the Coastal Path. Doves Cottage is a most unusual and cosy retreat in a magical setting. Seals, peregrines and a wide variety of seabirds are often seen from the south facing terrace. Additional lawn gives lots of space.

The elderly or infirm may find the short, steep flight of steps difficult.

Not suitable for under 5 year olds.

Please Note: Cot and highchair are not provided, but you are more than welcome to bring your own.  Please call 01437 765765 if you would like to hire them from Coastal Cottages.

We had an amazing week exploring this beautiful stretch of coastline. Wildlife abounds! We have seen so many different species and loved watching them all in the bay and surrounds.

Amazing place, a little gem. So relaxing, lovely walks. Beautiful cottage in the best position. We saw seals and lovely robins! Would love to come again!! Thank you

February 2023 - Beautiful cottage in an amazing location. Amazingly lucky with the weather – but a gem of a place whatever time of year – we will back.

Often at seaside locations, we have looked at this cottage from the cliffs and thought I bet it’s nice to stay there! Well now we know it is nice! Doves Cottage is in a marvellous location. We have really enjoyed our week here. Thank you.

Very relaxing week, walked loads on coastal paths and loved watching life in the bay. Super cottage, would love to return. Dyffryn Fernant Garden is well worth a visit a real jewel.

John & Caroline

Many thanks to the 'Miles' family for the use of Doves Cottage on our 13th visit here. We loved the whole holiday as much as ever visiting and re-visiting our favourite places. Lots and lots of walking. See you again!! Been magical as ever

Ian & Gill Simpson

Our third visit to Doves Cottage and it will not be our last! Thank you, we just love coming here. One of our favourite places in the world!

Audrey & Bill

The second but hopefully not the last visit to this special cottage and location. Our trip was delayed by two days due to travel problems caused by 'The Beast from the East' storm which hit Britain. Luckily, the weather here since Monday has been amazing with sunshine and blue skies most of the time. Fabulous scenery and walks. What a tonic as winter nears an end

Andy and Hannah & Lacie the dog

We've enjoyed the most wonderful 4 days at Doves Cottage. We've enjoyed sunshine and snow and have been lucky enough to sit outside and enjoy the views! What a way to spend your birthday! Peaceful, cosy and a great time had by all (including the pooch!) Thank you for your warm welcome. We hope to return again soon!

Gail & Keith

Loved another week of peace and quiet in Doves Cottage, and enjoying an early Christmas too! Thank you, see you next time.

Helen Tye

I agree with earlier comments that the rayburn is a joy to use. I have absolutely loved the time I have spent here at Doves Cottage. It's such a lovely place and I wish I could stay longer. I have had a wonderful and relaxing stay here and I knew from the minute I arrived here that I would return to this special place. I feel very privileged to have had the chance to stay in this incredible location and I can't wait to come back.

Gillian and Keith

We have returned again to this specail place. Had a lovely week - enjoying watching gulls bathing when the tide was out, and being cosy when the wind and the waves were raging.

Debbie & David Ferris and Barney the dog

Barney our border terrier loved having his very own "private" beach to run around on. This was our second visit and we have not been disappointed.

Mike and Jackie Howells

A wonderful and relaxing week. Many thanks

Steve and Meryl Rimmer, kipper and Dexter the dogs

We have had a wonderful time. Thank you. So beautiful and relaxing. Top highlight, two seals trying to get food out of the fishermans traps!!

Dave and Gill

What a beautiful place and a magical week. Loved every minute of it and can't wait to come back.

Martin, Julie and Billy the dog

What can be said that's not already been said? Thanks for an unforgettable holiday.

Simon & Sara

The word "stunning" is much over used these days - but it does apply here. Watch out for the seals here and the basking sharks at Strumble Head.
