1 / 19Purbeck View - Kingston
Kingston, Dorset
An 18th century end of terrace cottage for eight at Kingston, with views to Corfe Castle, an enclosed lawned garden wrapping the whole house and two dogs welcome.
Purbeck View is a characterful 18th century cottage at the end of a terrace in Kingston, and from its hilltop position the views run out over the surrounding countryside to Corfe Castle. It sleeps eight with two dogs welcome, and the garden of this dog friendly cottage wraps around the whole house, with ample space, as the owners put it, for the dogs and children to let off some steam.
Inside, the cottage moves between many levels, rich in original character. A charming flagstone hallway leads to the lounge, with a decorative wood burner, a TV and the first of the panoramic views, and the two dogs will be at the window before the bags are in. Further along the hall come the galley kitchen and a characterful dining room, its decorative fireplace a beauty. Below, a double has its own door into the garden, and lower again the converted outbuildings hold a characterful bunk room looking toward Corfe Castle.
Up top, a pretty twin may catch a glimpse of a passing steam train, and the double has a window seat and a feature fire. Outside, two terraces wait for leisurely meals, BBQs and drinks, a traditional ha-ha runs along the bottom of the garden, and countryside views follow you all the way round. Picture the evening: outdoor games abandoned, the BBQ going, and two dogs doing a lap of the garden.
Kingston has quaint streets of period cottages, tea rooms and a choice of pubs, and Corfe Castle, cared for by the National Trust, is one of the area's best loved sights. Swanage, heading east, has a sandy beach and a bustling high street, and Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door are within reach for days out with the dogs.

Is Purbeck View - Kingston dog friendly?
Yes, Purbeck View welcomes up to two dogs. The house has an enclosed lawned garden, which gives your dogs somewhere to run around safely while the group settles in.
Are dogs allowed at Purbeck View - Kingston year round?
The listing doesn't specify any seasonal restrictions on dogs, but we'd recommend checking directly with the property when you book to confirm availability for your dates.
What should I know before visiting Purbeck View - Kingston with my dog?
The enclosed garden is a real bonus for dog owners — grass underfoot and secure boundaries. The walks from Kingston are genuinely excellent, with Chapman's Pool at two miles and Kimmeridge Bay at just over three, but be aware that most routes start with an uphill stretch from the ridge, so your dog will likely find it easier going than you will.
