Dorset is a beautiful county at any time of the year and if, like many of our visitors, you love walking on the beach by the sea or along the coastal paths, then autumn is a particularly wonderful time to visit.
The South West Coast Path runs almost right by our door and its cliff walks offer spectacular views of the sea, beaches and coves and take you past the famous fossil cliffs; past Golden Cap, the highest cliff in southern England; and past the much photographed Durdle Door (a natural limestone arch on the Jurassic Coast).
Well behaved dogs are welcome at our bed and breakfast and self catering accommodation, and with its spectacular views and wide open spaces the surrounding area is perfect for walking your dog. Some local beaches are closed to dogs during the summer months but, as September arrives, most beaches in the area are open to dogs once again. Click here for information on dog-friendly beaches in West Dorset.After a wild and windy walk on the stunning Chesil Beach or the coast path, there’s nothing quite like coming back to our cosy Chesil and Fossil self catering apartments; throwing off your coat and boots, and toasting your toes in front of a wonderfully warm log fire burner.
Whatever the weather, Chesil Beach Lodge is welcoming, and warm and cosy. All of our B&B rooms and self-catering apartments have sea views, so on stormy days, over breakfast, your evening meal, or even over a Dorset cream tea, you can relax and enjoy the sight of the wind whipping up the waves in Lyme Bay.Please contact us to book accommodation in Dorset for your autumn break.
