Property code: 83814

This charming property is ideally placed for a family holiday or couple's break spent touring beautiful Dorset and beyond. It boasts excellent road links and original character features.

Plan a family escape and choose this attractive property that’s set just 7.5 miles from Wareham. Sleeping four guests across two bedrooms, your holiday accommodation is single-level and homely with a vast garden that’s ideal for those balmy summer evenings sipping wine and delving into al fresco suppers. Handily located beside the A31, you’ll soon be setting off to explore the Jurassic Coast and nearby market towns.

 

Quirky and comfortable with wooden flooring underfoot and sloping ceilings, this former coach house is brimming with character. The open-plan living space features a wooden panel that was actually part of the original stalls. This now separates the chic kitchen area from the lounge/diner, so you’ll be able to relax, cook and dine at leisure. Throw open the doors and let the outside in, stepping into the garden to sip your first coffee of the day on the lawn. There are two cosy bedrooms, and the bathroom completes the property. Off-road parking is available for two cars.

 

A 17.5-mile drive will bring you to historic Sturminster Newton, a town renowned for its friendly charm, interesting museum and beautiful views of the Blackmore Vale. Walkers and cyclists are well catered for with pretty riverside walks along the River Stour and access to the 14-mile North Dorset Trailway. Further afield, the cosmopolitan allure of Bournemouth, 16 miles away, will prove tempting to those who adore entertainment, traditional beachside amusements and retail therapy. Corfe Castle is a majestic sight for history-seekers, 12.5 miles away, and Lulworth Cove is simply stunning with its sandy beach, azure sea and impressive views of Durdle Door, 14 miles away.

This property was great - very spacious and beautifully decorated in keeping with the building. It had everything that you could possibly need in a home away from home and sitting in the spacious living area looking out into the garden was just the thing we needed to relax. The bedrooms were incredibly comfortable and the shower was a dream! It wasRead more so helpful having recommendations of walks, pubs and places to visit that were local or in the area and we would love to go back another time. Hide

A lovely property. The owners were very friendly and helpful. Even though they live just next door, the property is still very private with its own enclosed garden, ideal for young children. A great location with lots of attractions, including Corfe Castle and Studland Bay, nearby. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

We visited with our two boys for a week. Property is everything you need and a large garden for boys to play in. Very clean, warm and welcoming. Location on the A31 is great for getting to all attractions and places. Nice sun trap to have a drink outside on a sunny afternoon. Very enjoyable trip. We would return.
