Character Farm Cottages at Langton Herring are the perfect base for those looking to explore Dorset. Described as ‘absolute bliss’ and ‘wonderfully peaceful’ by previous guests, our Character Farm Cottages offer true tranquillity near the village of Abbotsbury, a short drive from the seaside town of Weymouth and within walking distance of the stunning Jurassic Coast. We have 4 self-catering cottages in total situated on our beautiful and extensive working dairy farm where we provide a wholesome family holiday experience rare in modern times.

Our cottages are affordable but well-maintained and our service and hospitality are exceptional, described as ‘friendly and helpful’ with a ‘warm welcome’. Our English country cottages are available for weekly holidays all year and for off-season short breaks. The properties are near some of Dorset’s most spectacular attractions and only a mile from Chesil Beach which can be seen from most of the farm.

Willows and Brambles are one bed room cottages, whilst Sycamores and Swallows are 2 bedroom cottages sleeping 4/5. Onsite we also have The Old Stable, complete with table tennis, table football, laundry facilities and a good selection of books to borrow.

Our cottages, nicely secluded on the coast 5 miles west of Weymouth, accommodate between two and nine people making them suitable for a group get-together or a secluded romantic break.

We are pleased to be able to offer high speed broadband for a very reasonable rate for the duration of your stay.

You’re welcome to spend your entire stay here on site, enjoying the fresh air and the calming environment only a true English farm holiday can provide, though many of our guests spend their days exploring the local area. The Abbotsbury Swannery is an impressive attraction not to be missed and the subtropical gardens are guaranteed to be a hit with Grandma. Your children and dogs can enjoy days on the safe, clean sandy beaches of Weymouth and the whole family can bond over a slow stroll along a coastal footpath, cameras in hand.
