Holiday cottages & self-catering accommodation in Seatown, Dorset

The tiny coastal hamlet of Seatown lies just 3 miles from the iconic red cliffs of West Bay. The hamlet’s privately owned shingle beach shelves into the sea, and as such is a top spot for fishing. It’s also one of the lesser known spots for fossil hunting, and while it’s not as popular as the likes of Charmouth and Lyme Regis, you still may be lucky enough to find a little piece of Jurassic history.

Set within a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Seatown offers a wonderful array of coastal and countryside walks, taking in some of the glorious scenery of the Dorset coast. You don’t have to wander far to appreciate the views – Seatown’s own beach offers stunning vistas of the coast. It is a landscape whose beauty changes with the seasons: rugged, windswept and romantic in the winter, peaceful and bathed in warm sunshine in the summer.

The tiny hamlet is formed from a smattering of cottages, but it has its very own pub, the Anchor Inn, which has built a reputation as one of the best places to dine on local seafood, all while admiring the glorious views out to Golden Cap. While you’re in the area, take time to learn a little about the colourful history of the area, whose industries have ranged from fishing to smuggling!
