Whether you’re travelling with the extended family or looking to enjoy a break with friends in rural Dorset, this delectable property promises to tick all of your boxes. Located on private grounds, this cottage makes up one of four holiday homes on a gated estate with an abundance of gardens and outdoor space. Boasting three generous bedrooms, all of which have en-suite facilities, this property is perfectly suited to your next stay on the Dorset coast.

Venture up the stunning driveway and pull into your very own holiday home. Inside you’ll find rooms that have been decorated with a contemporary style throughout, creating an instant home-from-home environment. Evenings in will no doubt be enjoyed in the generous open-plan living space, with a dining table for evening meals and an effortlessly comfortable lounge equipped with SkyTV. This room is made bright and cheerful thanks to large French doors which conveniently lead out to your private garden and patio. Outside you’ll find plenty of games for children, BBQ and an outdoor dining set – ideal for stays throughout the summer. Completing the property are three spacious bedrooms across two floors, some with sloping ceilings, including a handy king-size right here on the ground floor.

Despite its rural feel, this property lies just 3.5 miles from the Dorset town of Blandford Forum, a traditional market town with the River Stour running through. The town also gives way to the expansive Cranborne Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) (5 miles). As the wildlife capital of the UK, Dorset’s two AONBs promise a varied and fascinating array of birds, butterflies and animals to be spotted around and about. Just as beautiful as its rural beauty spots is the county’s remarkable coastline, with the famous Jurassic Coast just a 16-mile drive away. Mosey along the coastline to take in glorious seascapes and stunning cliff views.

A lovely cottage, well equipped and such comfortable sofas to sink into after a lovely soak in the hot tub, a lovely base to visit so many interesting places. We would be very happy to return, one day, for another holiday.

My detailed written report with photographic evidence is on its way. There are several failings but the significant two are the fact that the main living room was nothing like that pictured at the time of the booking (we did not like it at all) and that we felt we were at the edge of a building site. Mechanical diggers continued working 12 metres fRead morerom the actual house structure, ignoring garden. Far too close. We stayed out all day for peace and quiet. Hide

Overall, New Farm House was OK but felt a little impersonal and lacked that home from home feeling. A little more attention to detail, in both decor and facilities, is needed. Currently there is building work going on behind the house which does spoil the garden experience

Disappointing, despite looking impressive from outside & being spacious + quite comfortable. Maintenance man called out on 3 separate occasions (heating, hot water in 2 of the showers & kitchen RCD tripping.) Although the maintenance man arrived at property quickly these issues were an inconvenience. Property needs a good spring clean - esp bottom Read moreof shower screens. Also cobwebs, old one being along the entire length of the coving above the downstairs bedroom headboard. Not worth the money. Hide
