Bishops Cottage

The best location for staying in Lulworth cave, huge garden with gorgeous view

The property has a wonderful location. The room we stayed in needs some TLC particularly in the bathroom. It is a quirky place full of character and hosted by nice people.

The cottage is in a prime location and has great views of Lulworth Cove. The cottage is just very tired looking inside and out. The accommodation is shared with the family owners who reside on the top floor, but do make use of all other areas of the cottage, including the communal TV, Bar and games room. The pool was available, but also looks tired and needs a good clean as the water was murky. We stayed in the boat house, which is seperate from the main building and both double beds within were very comfy with nice bed linen, ensuring a good nights sleep. Again, inside the boat house the creature comforts were just not up to a high standard, with the TV not able to pick up any Guest wifi, the paintwork not at a high level, the bathroom flooring was all water stained and bath panel coming away. Also the curtain (not curtains) in the bedroom overlooking the cove would not shut properly, so people walking around the pool area could see into our room, as there was only one curtain on the pole, which let in light both sides of the curtain when shut. That said, the cottage is a lovely place to stay, with the family being very welcoming and nice to talk to. The breakfast was of a great standard and the speed of getting your breakfast was very good. The honesty bar is well stocked and is a nice touch if you fancy a couple of drinks and a game of darts. The cottage is beautiful, it just needs some money spent and some TLC.

Awesome views. Lovely stay. Nice size room, clean, big bed. Awesome views. Good shower.
