Overview
Description
Rex Officio is a modern conversion with views across open farmland to the rear, only 4 miles by road from Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door, but can be walked by the more adventurous across the downs. It is adjacent to our larger property, Ex Officio and often visitors hire it to accommodate parents or friends who wish to be near. Despite our remoteness, a short drive will take you to the seaside towns of Weymouth and Portland or in the other directions to Studland and Swanage, We are also central to the market towns of Wareham and Blandford and our county town, Dorchester. We have a very friendly and successful pub, serving good food. Please be aware that only vodafone mobiles may work, but there is wi-fi in the cottage so wi-fi calling will work if your mobile has that feature.Weekly lets run from SATURDAY to SATURDAY, although we can be flexible if necessary.
Please enquire about short breaks which are dependent on the season and/or late availability and are priced accordingly to the number of nights.
Payment either by cheque made payable to Mrs Rosemary Hodder or online to the account designated on our booking form.

By Sykes on 12-Jul-202628th June – 12th July 2026 Thank you, Rosemary & Terry for making Rex officio available for me to have another lovely fortnights’ holiday and for the flexibility to cope with the heatwave. I’ve got around the beautiful Dorset countryside whilst taking care in the extreme heat. I’m already looking forward to next year. Thank you again Richard Sykes Beighton, Sheffield .

By Harvey on 04-Mar-2026Mr & Mrs Harvey March 2026 Rating ***** Super peaceful. Great directions off the A road to the property. Most welcoming with excellent suggestions for eating out on a Sunday evening. Plenty of private parking adjacent to the property. Felt safe. Plenty of room downstairs for a large dog. Stunning farmland walks all around. Noticeably, the cold tap water tasted so so much better than London/Thames Water!

By Maisie the dog and family on 10-Apr-2026Had a lovely time and Maisie our dog enjoyed all the walks. Cottage is perfect for us and a really comfy bed, lashings of hot water and a good range of tv channels to occupy our evenings. Thanks, Rosemary, for the cake and flowers and also the tea and coffee provisions to keep us going for a couple of days. We will definitely return to Dorset and Rex Officio - a real home from home. Jane, Michael and Maisie, the doug
