About Forge Cottage

Forge is a traditional thatched cottage in the heart of Branscombe. This chocolate box holiday home is packed with original features, including an inglenook fireplace and exposed beams.

You’ll love the pretty back garden. It’s the perfect place to relax, and completely private. If you can tear yourself away from this cosy cottage, the beautiful village of Branscome, with its old-fashioned pubs and working forge, is just a short stroll from the property.

At Forge Cottage, the Jurassic Coast is on your doorstep. Make your way along this World Heritage Site to Lyme Regis, one of the most beautiful seaside towns in the country.
