Set right within the Dorset National Landscape, this charming two-bedroom cottage makes a peaceful escape for families or friends looking to unwind together in the countryside. It’s tucked away in the hamlet of Chebbard, just 3 miles from Milborne St Andrew, making it easy for you to explore the area's rolling landscapes and picturesque villages. If you’re here for the walking, you could start with the 6-mile circular Dorsetshire Gap walk (starts 4 miles away) or venture 8 miles to see the famous Cerne Abbas Giant carved into the hillside.
On arrival, step inside via the entrance hall to find a welcoming lounge with exposed brickwork and a striking inglenook fireplace. In cold weather, spark up the wood burner and settle down in front of the Smart TV. The spacious and well-equipped kitchen/diner has bi-fold doors opening directly onto the garden so you can let the outside in when it’s mild. There's also a handy utility room and ground-floor WC. Upstairs, you’ll have a luxurious super-king-size bedroom and a twin which can also be arranged as a super-king-size with advance notice. Both bedrooms are decked out with Egyptian cotton linen and Hungarian goose-down duvets for a restful night's sleep. For washing, there’s a family bathroom containing a bath with a shower over and WC. Outside, the roomy lawn is ideal for active children and your dog, and you can dine alfresco on the patio, perhaps sizzling up a tasty BBQ on balmy evenings. Off-road parking is available for two cars.
Nearby, spend a day exploring the historic market town of Dorchester (8 miles), filled with independent shops, welcoming pubs serving local ale and the National Trust's Hardy's House. At the stunning Isle of Purbeck, where you can marvel at the dramatic limestone arch of Durdle Door (16.5 miles) or enjoy a refreshing swim at the crystal-clear waters of Lulworth Cove (17.5 miles).
