This stylish two-bedroom barn conversion offers a peaceful, rural setting, in the small hamlet of Salwayash. It’s one of six homes surrounding a former farmyard which has been transformed with lawns, trees and perennials. This cosy and characterful property enjoys views across a wild valley, perfect for couples or families in search of a relaxing break. Its proximity to the local pub (400 metres), shop (1.5 miles) and coast (4 miles), makes it an enviable location.

As you enter through the stable door into a small hall, a step leads up to a large, open-plan living space where modern and traditional styles are perfectly combined. A high ceiling and exposed beams give a bright and spacious feel, with cosy sofas to curl up on after a long day of exploring. A well-equipped kitchen and dining area ensure you have everything you need if you fancy some home cooking. The bathroom with a shower over the bath is also on this level. Steps lead down from the living space into the inviting double bedroom. Heading upstairs, the attractive exposed staircase leads you to a small twin bedroom – just watch out for the sloping ceiling. An old grain door leads to external steps from here, too. From the lounge, you’ll find a peaceful rear, enclosed terrace and small lawn, with beautiful views across the valley, a haven for birds and butterflies. There is also off-road parking for two cars.

The village is a perfect base from which to explore the stunning Jurassic coastline, which offers endless different walks and hiking routes. The popular and lively town of Bridport is only 3 miles away, famous for its many different markets which sell delicious local produce. The bustling harbour town of West Bay is also close by, just 5 miles away.

This is a well equipped and comfortable cottage. Set in a quiet and peaceful location, but with plenty to see and do in the area. There are well kept communal grounds and good parking.
