Fisherman's Cottage is perfect for families or couples who like fresh air and walking. It is a very short walk to possibly the best pub in Dorset, the world-renowned Square and Compass. The cottage itself is well equipped and has a light and airy feel. It has a very nice garden that kids can play in alongside some well stocked flower beds.
