Less than a mile from the golden beach at Studland Bay, this charming cottage is perfectly located for families and friends eager to experience Dorset's spectacular coastline and beautiful countryside. Its enclosed garden is a peaceful spot in which to relax after a day outdoors, and has direct access to the neighbouring nature reserve.

Original features blend with contemporary style in this inviting, red-brick terraced cottage. Natural light fills the pretty lounge, where comfortable seating is arranged around a Smart TV to create a relaxing space after a day by the sea. Shelves with books and DVDs add to the home-from-home atmosphere. One step up, the bright, open-plan kitchen/diner provides everything needed for preparing leisurely family meals, with the choice of eating around the dining table, in the bright conservatory or out on the patio. A chic, ground-floor shower room with a large, walk-in shower adds convenience. Upstairs are three restful bedrooms: a king-size, a double and a cosy single. Beyond the conservatory lies an enclosed garden with a lawn perfect for family games and a patio with outdoor dining furniture. At the end of the garden, four steps lead up to a gate that opens directly onto the nature reserve next door. Making arrivals and departures easy, private parking is available for two cars.

The property is just 0.5 miles from the handy village shop and less than 1 mile from Studland Bay, perfect for swimming, water sports and sandcastle-building. For a fabulous walk, head around the coastline to Swanage Bay (3 miles) or Studland’s dunes and nature reserve (2 miles). In Poole (7 miles) there’s a great choice of bars and places to eat, or you can take a ferry across to Brownsea Island and its remarkable wildlife.

Having stayed at many holiday homes over the years it certainly is a rare commodity to find a stay that goes beyond the write up and glossy photos , In short it was the whole package accommodation, location and comfort.

Lovley little cottage. Very comfortable and well equipped. Great location for Studland beach and Old Harry Rocks. You can walk onto the heath straight from the garden. Definitely recommend.
