Luxury surfing holidays in Dorset
There's a whiff of wild and free about luxury surfing holidays in Cornwall; with sea temps that range from 6 to 20°C, you could be rocking boardshorts or stuffed in a 5mm. If in doubt, paddle out.
Pack your suit and head for a watery wilderness, where shivery-salty smiles and sand in your hair are the surest signposts of a British surf trip done right. These private Dorset homes come with window-side tubs where you can wash the ocean off, secure storage for the surfboards, and heated indoor pools where you can thaw the digits. Add a deck for morning wave checks, and you have all the makings of the best luxury surfing holidays in Dorset. At the end of a day spent carving and turtle rolling, it'll be sundowners and a barbecued supper.
Whether it's just you, your dog, and your bodyboard, or a big group of wave riders gathering for an annual trip, these luxury holiday homes scattered up and down the coast are just a stone's throw from the swell. Iconic surf spots like Lyme Regis and West Lulworth, where ankle slappers and six-foot, shallow barrels live in unison, beckon beginners and pros alike, and secret surf spots dotted along the coast offer white sands and wild Atlantic swells. Why lug your longboard to the tropics when the forecast for luxury surf retreats on home soil looks this good?
