Adjacent to Well Cottage (H302) in a small enclave of cottages and houses, The Pumphouse was completely refurbished and extended by its current owners to provide very comfortable and spacious accommodation. Situated in the conservation area of the small village of Bradpole, it is a mile and a half to the north of Bridport, which was once the main rope and net producing town in the country. Beyond Bridport and right on the coast is West Bay, which has a shingle beach, small harbour and seafood restaurant.

The Pumphouse provides an ideal base from which to explore the whole of this fascinating South Dorset coastline, England's first natural World Heritage site, known as the Jurassic coast. Charmouth (sandy beach) and Lyme Regis (sandy beach, rock pools, popular with fossil collectors), Abbotsbury (swannery and sub-tropical gardens) are a short drive away, while for keen walkers the coast path provides the best way to enjoy the stunning views from the high points such as Golden Cap.
