Close to the borders of Devon, Somerset and Dorset, just outside the town of Axminster, this delightful property sleeps four guests and is great for a family. Whether you prefer exploring the countryside on foot, or visiting popular tourist attractions, you’ll be within easy reach of a wide range of things to do.

This reverse-level property has the two bedrooms and family bathroom on the ground floor as well as access to the outside space. Upstairs, you will find an open-plan living space with characterful features such as exposed beams combined with contemporary finishings. Skylights over the lounge flood the space with light, making it a pleasant place to relax together. Take a seat on the sofas, play a game of chess or flick on the TV to watch a film. There’s an interconnecting door in the lounge which can be opened to the next-door property if both are booked together – ideal for a large group. The spacious kitchen has plenty of room to cook up a storm and a dining table for eating together. Outside the home is a shared garden with superb views across the rolling countryside. Dine alfresco as the sun sets in the distance.

The Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site has plenty to explore, with pretty villages, rolling countryside and stunning beaches. Spend the day at the seaside resort of Lyme Regis (6.5 miles) perusing the range of shops or soaking up the sun on the beach. Axminster is 2.5 miles from the home and is a lovely market town with lots of shops, restaurants and bars to enjoy. Visit the animals at Axe Valley Wildlife Park (3 miles), a great day out for all the family.

A pretty cottage with spectacular views. A beautiful pub down the road in Kilmington called the New Inn for fresh lunch and lovely staff. A good situation for getting to places by car. Some lovely special touches like sweets for the children and freshly baked bread which was very nice. You can't hear the road indoors, but as soon as you open windowRead mores you can and it is rather busy, so we couldn't eat on the picnic benches like we wanted. The Internet was rather slow as well.

The cottage interior was spacious, very clean and comfortable and generally well equipped. The owners were friendly and helpful. Lovely views across the Devon countryside. The traffic noise from the nearby A35 was a little off putting but it was less noticeable in the downstairs bedrooms and was not a problem during the night.

Beautiful views from the cottage, but its very close to very busy elevated road which makes it a bit noisy when windows are open. The cottage is beautiful with amazing views, having the bedrooms downstairs is a really good idea as you get to enjoy the best views upstairs. Lovely walks in the area. The roads to the cottage are all single track so yoRead moreu need to be careful as there arent many passing places. The WiFi is very weak which can be a problem if you need it. Hide

Really enjoyed our week in The Dairy, lovely place to stay and really nicely presented! Lots of nice touches, good quality furnishings, a very comfortable bed and very clean throughout! Near to the coast as well as villages so an ideal location for exploring. Would highly recommend and we definitely would stay again with no hesitation!

We stayed at The Dairy for a week at the start of school holidays with our 2 children. The owners were lovely and left us a nice little welcome hamper in the property. The property itself was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay.

We wouldnt hesitate to stay and would highly recommend this property for families with children looking to explore the area. Hide
