Individual gardens complete the picture, plus a communal play area, and acres of farm land to explore. The amazing coastline is rich pickings for fossil hunters, and there are some great places to eat without leaving Burton Bradstock. See you here soon!

🎨 Discover Dorset through the eyes of local artists…

If you’re staying with us at Graston Farm Cottages, why not add a little art and culture to your Dorset break with a visit to the Artists of the Jurassic Coast Exhibition?

Inspired by our beautiful coastline, countryside and distinctive Dorset landscapes, the exhibition is a lovely opportunity to see how local artists capture the colours, character and atmosphere of the Jurassic Coast. 🖌️🌊

It’s a perfect addition to a day exploring the area – particularly if the weather isn’t quite behaving itself! ☔😊

One of the joys of staying at Graston Farm Cottages is having so many different things to see and do nearby, from coastal walks and beaches to galleries, exhibitions and local events.
