Property information

Furlongs is a spacious, converted property which is superbly located for the Jurassic coast. The excellent accommodation sleeps up to ten guests, with large open-plan living areas and a covered games and barbecue area.

Neighbourhood information

Information correct at the time of writing. Furlongs is situated between the village of Abbotsbury and the impressive landmark of St Catherine’s Chapel. Abbotsbury has a number of attractions to visit, including a Swannery, where you can see mute swans on their nests and feed the cygnets. The Subtropical Gardens have won awards, there are lots of exotic and unusual flowers on display. St Catherines Chapel was built in the 14th century and sits in splendid isolation overlooking Chesil Beach. The walk up to the chapel is well worth it, with views stretching for miles. Look out for the ‘wishing holes’ in the chapel. Chesil Beach is a famous part of the World Heritage Jurassic Coast and only a short walk from the property. The Jurassic Coast is an area rich in fossils. One of the best places to explore the history is Lyme Regis, where you can visit the museum, go on fossil walks or stroll up the iconic harbour wall, known locally as The Cobb. Other must-see sights along this unique coastline include Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove. Both of these fascinating and photogenic features have been carved out by the sea over millions of years. The Hive Beach at Burton Bradstock and its café, serving fresh local seafood and home made cakes is also nearby. Further west is the bustling market town of Bridport with its antique shops and restaurants and regular street markets. The county town of Dorchester is only a 20 minute drive away with its large selection of shops, restaurants, cafes, museums and two cinemas.
