Surrounded by rolling countryside, this enchanting cottage combines timeless character with modern comforts. Perfectly located for beauty spots, walks, market towns and coastal resorts, it’s ideal for one or two couples, friends or a small family.
Instantly welcoming, the cottage has a fresh, modern/country style and is decorated with pale colours and pretty patterns for a refreshing and relaxing ambience. Step through the lobby and kick off your shoes before heading to the delightful lounge, where comfortable seating surrounds an inglenook fireplace with a wood burner: a cosy setting for games, reading or an evening in front of the Smart TV. The bright kitchen/diner enjoys views of the wildflower bank through bi-fold doors, and offers a sociable space for preparing and sharing meals. The well-designed kitchen includes a range-style oven, microwave and dishwasher. A utility room and a separate WC complete the ground floor. Upstairs are a luxurious super-king-size bedroom and a gorgeous twin (zip-and-link) room, both with entrancing views, plus a family bathroom. For drinks or dining in the fresh air, choose from the attractive patios at the front and back, both set up with outdoor furniture. The enclosed rear lawn is ideal for children and pets. Making arrivals and departures easy, private parking is available for two cars.
The cottage is just 8 miles from the market town of Dorchester, where you’ll find a wide choice of shops, as well as museums, an arts centre and Max Gate, the Victorian home of author Thomas Hardy. Walk up Bulbarrow Hill (6 miles), or see the Cerne Abbas Giant carved into the hillside 8 miles away. For a day at the seaside, head to Ringstead Beach (13.5 miles), a shingle beach where you can swim or picnic. The coastal landmarks of Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove are within 18 miles.
