Three Albury

Three Albury stands in the middle of Charmouth, a short walk from the shops, the pubs and the beach. A shared gravel drive leads to its private entrance door. It sleeps two, and two dogs are welcome, with additional charges.

The entrance opens straight into an open-plan lounge, kitchen and diner. The kitchen is on the right and has an electric oven and hob, a microwave, a Nespresso machine, a fridge/freezer, a dishwasher and a washing machine. Opposite is a dining space and a lounge area with a Smart TV. An oak staircase rises from here to the king-size bedroom, which sits on a mezzanine under a vaulted ceiling.

The bathroom arrangement is unusual. A free-standing slipper bath, compact and suited to one person, stands in the bedroom itself, beside a shower cubicle set into an alcove and open to the room. A door leads to a separate WC. Anyone who wants a closed bathroom door should note that the bath and shower are not behind one.

The apartment has no outdoor space. One off-road parking space is at the rear, about 20 metres along the shared drive. Three Albury can be booked together with Two Albury, with an interlinking door unlocked on request. The apartment suits a couple with a dog who want a centre-of-the-village base and do not need a garden.
