00:00 In the Harry Potter series, Shell Cottage was the home of Bill Weasley and Fleur Delacour.
00:05 In the seventh part of the series, Harry, Ron, and Hermione visit Shell Cottage after
00:10 being held captive by the Malfoys.
00:12 The shell-covered house was specially built for the film.
00:16 The set was constructed on Freshwater West Beach in Pembrokeshire, Wales.
00:21 After filming, the house was removed, but the grave of the house elf Dobie remained.
00:26 The beloved character died right on that beach in the Dunes, where Harry laid him to rest
00:31 and placed a gravestone in his memory.
00:34 While the grave itself is no longer there, many fans have left mementos in the Dunes
00:38 as tributes.
00:40 The spot where Dobie was laid to rest in the film is right by the sea on one of the dunes.
00:45 Fans of the franchise often visit this place to pay their respects to the character.
00:50 You might even spot a stray sock or two left there for Dobie, hidden among the sand and
00:54 sea shells.
