This beautiful country-style cottage is hidden within the depths of the striking Dorset countryside and is the perfect group hideaway for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle. This high-quality barn conversion is set within a complex of four properties and suits those seeking a rural holiday with easy access to cycle paths and local amenities.

Kick off your walking boots in the welcoming hallway and head into the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner to make a fresh cup of tea or pour your first glass of wine. The lounge space is perfect for relaxing, offering a cosy wood burner and plenty of space to cuddle up on the leather sofa on those chillier nights. Find everything you need in the kitchen area, helping you to whip up your signature dish with the produce you sourced on your excursions. Outdoors, enjoy your post-dinner glass of bubbles on the open lawn, or get engrossed in a round of pool in the shared games room alongside the property. As night falls, climb the stairs to one of four beautifully arranged bedrooms: a super-king-size zip-and-link that can be made into twin beds, a double and two single bedrooms. On fine days, have lazy breakfasts out in the fresh air of the private patio and plan your day's adventures.

Discover wonderful walking trails right from your doorstep. The waymarked route of Macmillan Way passes the property and benefits from open fen country and many architecturally beautiful towns and villages. A 7-mile drive takes you to the famous Jurassic Coast, where the kids will be keen to start hunting for fossils and building sandcastles on the beach. For the group's foodies, the Burton Bradstock, Dorchester and Abbotsbury destinations are all within 15 miles of the holiday home and provide everything from fine seafood to country-style grub.

The cottage was very beautiful and well maintained. The kitchen was stocked with plenty of pots and pans etc. The bedrooms are very spacious and cosy, beds were very comfy. With it being a cold weekend during our stay we enjoyed movies next to the fire which was delightful.
