This substantial detached bungalow is situated on the popular Winspit Estate in a fine semi-rural position on the south-western outskirts of the village and enjoys views over open country to the sea in the distance. It is thought to have been built during the 1960s and is of traditional cavity construction, with external elevations of natural Purbeck stone under a concrete interlocking tiled roof.
“Willow Cottage” stands in a large garden which extends to just under a quarter of an acre and offers spacious accommodation with scope to extend, with views over open country to the Jurassic Coast and English Channel.
Worth Matravers stands on a headland about 1 mile from the sea and is nationally renowned for its scenic beauty.

Much of the area is classified as being of Outstanding Natural Beauty and incorporates a World Heritage Coastline.
