A wood burner anchors the seating area, with a plush sofa, a Smart TV with DVD player, and a dining table nearby. There is ample space for socialising, relaxing and simply enjoying being away together. Also downstairs is a WC. At the end of each wonderful day, climb the stairs to your bedrooms, both opening onto the first-floor balcony, which captures lake views. The double has an en-suite shower room. The family bathroom is also here. The enclosed garden encompasses a furnished deck and a lawn for garden games. A private gate leads to a green and shared BBQ area.

There is private parking for one car, with extra space on site.

Prepare a picnic and head 6.5 miles down to picturesque Ringstead Bay to paddle, swim and make castles on the sand. Pull on your walking boots and hike out along the South West Coast Path.
