Curated Cottages UK

08/06/2026

When we launched Curated Cottages, we knew we wanted the business to stand for something more than just booking holidays.

We wanted to support a local cause that genuinely transforms lives.

That’s why we chose to support the Dorset Children’s Foundation. The charity supports disabled children and their families across Dorset by funding specialist equipment, therapies, activities and opportunities that might otherwise be out of reach.

Importantly, Dorset Children’s Foundation receives no government funding and relies on fundraising, donations and local support. 100% of all donations go directly to support local families.

We were introduced to the charity through our son’s school and quickly realised the incredible difference it makes to families throughout Dorset.

At the same time, we wanted to ensure accessibility was part of what we offer as a business. Properties such as Dawn Lighthouse offer accessible accommodation designed to help more families enjoy a holiday in Dorset. Because everyone deserves the chance to make special memories together.

Every stay booked through Curated Cottages supports the Dorset Children’s Foundation and the remarkable work it does. At the heart of this work is The Windmill Wellness Hub, the Foundation’s dedicated community space and the centre of its service delivery. The Windmill is a fully accessible, multi-purpose hub for children and parent/carers, featuring an accessible changing facility, a cinema and a sensory space. It provides a safe, welcoming environment where families can gather, learn and access an ever-growing range of activities and services.
Funds raised through our charity partnership will directly support The Windmill Wellness Hub.

These photos weren’t taken by us.

They were shared by a group of friends who recently stayed at Songbird for a long weekend in Dorset and loved it so much that they wanted others to experience it too.

Their days began with yoga by the lake, exploring the private beach, and enjoying the peaceful surroundings. Their evenings ended with rooftop drinks, laughter and some of the most beautiful sunsets Dorset has to offer.

It’s exactly the kind of stay we love helping guests discover.

Whether you’re planning a girls’ getaway, a reunion with friends, or simply a chance to spend quality time together, Songbird offers luxury lakeside living in one of Dorset’s most beautiful settings.

✨ Luxury stays, locally chosen.

Imagine saying goodbye to your home, expecting it to be temporary … only to find out you would never return.

Tyneham is one of Dorset’s fascinating places. A village left behind in 1943, with its ruins, church, and school classroom still standing today.

Nearby, Worbarrow Bay offers sweeping sea views, white cliffs and one of the most memorable stretches of coastline in Dorset.

From the haunting atmosphere of the village to the beauty of the bay, it’s a must-visit.

And after exploring somewhere like this, imagine staying nearby. Beautiful views and cosy interiors at a luxury cottage you’ll never want to leave.
