Gather the gang for a multi-generational getaway in this wonderful property. You’ll be staying in a former workshop, now a beautiful holiday home suitable for a family or a mixed group of friends. You can even bring your dog along. There’s access to the coast and countryside of Dorset, and the pretty, surrounding village of Maiden Newton is quiet yet has everything you could need.

This cottage is set over four levels. Walk in to find a reception area with seating, perfect for storing boots and waiting while everyone gets ready. Then there’s a utility room, a WC and a kitchen/diner. The room is uniquely designed and full of character, finished with a wood burner and a stable door. Head to the first floor for the lounge, a beautiful room that’s equipped with a wood burner. Continue to the second floor for two more bedrooms, a lovely twin and a double. Finally, on the third floor you’ll find the master bedroom. It has a king-size bed under a vaulted ceiling. You’ll also find the bathroom, spacious with a deep bath and shower. This property is completed with a garden, enclosed by a wall, where you can sunbathe and play.

There are lots of activities to suit all tastes around Maiden Newton. You’ll be close to the Jurassic Coast, so look for opportunities to go fossil hunting. Alternatively, try the Jurassic Safari – it is a park that you can travel around in various vehicles to see gorgeous natural sights and various animals, set 6 miles from the property. For history, take a trip to the iconic Cerne Giant (6 miles), just outside the picturesque village of Cerne Abbas.

Lovely cottage in good location to explore Dorset, nice lounge, bathroom & bedrooms, quite a few stairs. Parking is tight for big cars. Kitchen could do with more/better quality pans and oven trays but has everything else you need. Lovely cottage garden with high walls so feels quite private. So many places within 30-60mins to explore such as CharmRead moreouth for fossil hunting and Lyme Regis. Nice Hall&Woodhouse pub in Poundray for food. Chippy at end of drive only open Thurs & Fri. Had a great week. Hide
