Retreat to this rustic hideaway in the magical surroundings of Langton Herring. Sleeping four guests, the charming two-bedroom Dorset barn, which is 6 miles from the bustling coastal town of Weymouth, boasts a wealth of original character. With a private terrace for outdoor relaxation, guests can also explore the 70-acre farm, with its wildflower meadow and orchard.
Let yourselves into the charming abode to find whitewashed stone walls, exposed beams and a cosy, wood-lined ceiling. The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner is the perfect place to rest and recuperate after your many excursions out into your picturesque surroundings. Unpack the delicious Dorset produce you have sourced on your trips, then whip up tasty treats in the country-style kitchen area, keeping the door open to bring in the streaming sunshine on summer days. Sit down to your hearty feasts before sinking back into the soft seating with a book or your favourite programme on TV. When you are ready to rest your head on your pillow, make your way through to the welcoming double bedroom. There is also a bunk bedroom that the youngsters will adore. The family bathroom features both a bath and a shower for your convenience. Cook lunch and dinner out on the BBQ during summer stays. Take the children to play on the shared lawn or in the orchard. There is parking here for two cars.
Follow the footpath through the colourful wildflowers down to the South West Coast Path. Stride out from here towards either Weymouth or Abbotsbury. Discover the colour and natural beauty of Abbotsbury Subtropical Gardens, 4.5 miles away. Hike out along the length of famous Chesil Beach, which stretches 11 miles to the Isle of Portland. History lovers may well wish to take time out to visit Portland Castle, one of Henry VIII’s coastal artillery forts.
