A car on Axminster Road in Charmouth is thought to have been set on fire deliberately in the early hours of this morning.
Dorset Fire and Rescue officers rushed to the scene shortly before 1am to put out the blaze, which had spread to two nearby holiday homes.
A spokeswoman for the service said: "There was slight damage to the plaster on the outside wall and to a window, and also damage to a main gas line.
"The cause is believed to be deliberate ignition."
