You know your guests love your place when they take the time to draw it.

This lovely picture was left in one of our cottage guestbooks. It looks like they loved our little playground area in the gardens.

Do you love your self-catering cottage enough to draw a picture of it?😀

Coffee. Tea. Hot chocolate.

There's no shortage of places you can order yours.

Our corner of Dorset is packed with cafes, specialist coffee and tea shops, kiosks, pubs and loads of other places where you can get a hot cuppa.

Perfect for when you're exploring somewhere new this autumn.

If you find a favourite, let us know. It's always good to have places we can recommend to guests.

Places we love include Chococo in Swanage (hidden away but worth finding for it's incredible hot chocolate), the tea rooms at Craig's Dairy farm (just along the road from us) and the cafe inside the Dorchester Curiousity Centre - scrummy cakes!

What do you want from a holiday in Dorset?

A self-catering cottage that's a pleasure to come back to after a long day?

Amazing places to visit that aren't too far away?

Coastal walks on your doorstep?

These are just some of the highlights our guests comment on when they leave messages in our guestbooks.

If you've never taken a break in Dorset, perhaps now's the time to give it a go😀

Don't forget to put your clocks back one hour on Saturday night or Sunday morning⏰

That's time for an extra hour in bed.

Or another hour for enjoying what our corner of Dorset has to offer.

Whatever you do with it - make the most of a day with 60 extra glorious minutes!

Autumn in Dorset.

A season of glorious colours, shapes and textures.

You're drawn outside by the richness of nature, even as it starts shutting down for winter.

Who can't resist a walk in the Dorset countryside at this time of year?

That's why this is a wonderful time to book a short break in one of our self-catering cottages.

"We have all enjoyed a fantastic week at Upton Grange. The weather has been incredible and we have loved the location, beaches and the cottage.

We have everything we needed for a family of four... We can't wait to be back! Thank you."

Once again, our Dorset location delivered what was needed for a family looking for a fabulous holiday.

Comments like this, in our cottage guestbooks, make us glow with pleasure.

Early morning sunshine highlights the autumn colours and shapes in and around our gardens.

Everything seems aglow with bright berries, yellow and copper leaves, and seasonal oranges. Even the ever-present greens seem more vibrant in the October light.

For some of our guests this is their favourite time of year.

We're fast approaching the time of year when we love to light up the night.

Here are some of the places where you can see illuminations from the end of October and into next year:

1. Abbotsbury Subtropical Gardens - their immersive illuminations start on 24 October and run until 31st.

2. The Blue Pool illuminations don't start until 8 January 2027, and they run until 21 February.

3. Corfe Castle Winter Lights will glow up this landmark ruin on 12 and 19 December.

4. Kingston Lacy's Starlit Christmas runs from 21 November to 3 January.

As the evenings get darker we'll hear more about other local light trails.

Bikes on the beach!

One weekend every October, Weymouth beach transforms into a motocross circuit.

Dozens of dirt bike riders test their skill on the flats, jumps and curves on a circuit made from our famously fine-grained sand.

It's a noisy, exciting spectacle, packed with action.

This year's event was this weekend.

If you're a bike racing fan, watch out for the announcement of next year's event.
