Set in the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this single-storey holiday property is ideal for a couple who want to enjoy a romantic escape to the country with a canine companion. It’s part of a complex of properties, each with private space plus shared grounds and an orchard to explore. There’s a shop and a pub within a mile – take the scenic route along quiet lanes and pretty meadows to the village of Mosterton, or visit the charming town of Beaminster (4.5 miles). There’s the added appeal of the Jurassic Coast nearby (12 miles).
Head up the drive to find your holiday retreat set into an idyllic verdant landscape. Take three steps down to the front door and step inside to contemporary country-style interiors with gentle tones harmonising with the original features. The well-equipped kitchen, utility, dining, and living area are open-plan style, and you can snuggle up by the cosy wood burner and watch favourite films. Enjoy a great night’s sleep in your stylish king-size bedroom with en-suite, and make plans the next morning around the breakfast bar. Outside, there’s a small bistro table and chairs, and beyond this a shared BBQ patio where you can meet new friends for sunset banter.
Browse the independent shops and crafts in the handsome market town of Bridport (11 miles). Take a jaunt around Ham Hill Country Park (11 miles). Go fossil hunting on the beach in Charmouth (15.5 miles) and Lyme Regis (16 miles) on the Jurassic Coast - a designated World Heritage Site. Or, enjoy a romantic trip to Abbotsbury (21 miles) where you’ll find a pretty village, subtropical gardens and a fascinating historic swannery, a natural haven for thousands of free-flying mute swans and a spectacular site where you may even see cygnets hatch before your eyes.
