The details

Weston is one of those rare places that truly stops you in your tracks. Designed in 1927 by Sir Edwin Lutyens, this Arts and Crafts masterpiece sits high on the Jurassic Coast, offering uninterrupted views over Weymouth Bay, chalk cliffs and the iconic sweep of Durdle Door. Staying here feels less like a holiday let and more like being welcomed into a grand yet deeply comfortable country house, where history, design and landscape come together beautifully.

Luxury self-catering accommodation is set within a substantial private wing of the house, giving up to six guests around 300sqm of space to spread out and unwind. Entry is through an oak panelled porch into the parquet-floored entrance hall, where Lutyens’ striking scissor staircase immediately makes its presence felt. The living room is a calm and elegant space with generous sofas, a wood burner and views that draw your eye straight to the sea. It’s the kind of room that encourages long evenings with a book, a glass of wine and the fire gently crackling.

The bespoke marble kitchen is a joy to cook in, anchored by a full-sized AGA cooker that’s on around the clock. There’s plenty of space to prepare leisurely meals, along with a coffee maker and a fully equipped utility room. Three beautifully styled bedrooms include two with king size beds and Hypnos mattresses and a twin room that’s just as inviting. There are two bathrooms alongside multiple toilets, making the house ideal for relaxed group stays.

Outside, the private guest garden is every bit as special as the house itself. Apple and mulberry trees frame sweeping views of the Jurassic Coast, while a wood-fired hot tub overlooks the sea, perfect for sunset soaks or star-filled nights. A gate from the garden leads directly onto the South West Coast Path, with beaches, cliffs and coastal walks quite literally on your doorstep.

Weston sits just moments from Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove, placing you right at the heart of Dorset’s most dramatic coastline. Days can be spent walking the cliffs, swimming in secluded bays or exploring nearby Corfe Castle and Poole Harbour, before returning home to watch the sun dip into the sea from this unforgettable clifftop retreat.
