Surrounded by walking routes that will delight any dashing hound, this romantic retreat is beautifully set up for a solo adventure or couple's getaway. Enjoy rural views from the stunning location, which is close to charming towns, intriguing heritage sites and the fabulous Jurassic Coast with its dog-friendly beaches.
Lead your pup through the shared courtyard garden and enter this delightful cottage, one of three converted farm buildings on the site. Enjoy the open-plan living space, with a high ceiling, vaulting beams and exposed stonework. There's a pretty, hand-built kitchen at one end, room for dining adjacent, and a comfortable living area opposite, perfect for relaxing by the fire, with your hound at your feet - perhaps watching a movie on the Smart TV. The king-size bedroom includes a spectacular forged-metal four-poster bed, ample storage and an en-suite bathroom with a modern, free-standing bath. Outside, you'll have a screened terrace area where you can drink and dine alfresco, and steps leading to the shared courtyard in which four-pawed friends on leads are welcome. You can also take a peek at the old well which sits in the courtyard, its bespoke cover offering a glimpse of the water below.
Step outside the property to access the Wessex Ridgeway, a walking, cycling and riding trail that crosses Dorset's rural heartlands through rolling countryside rich in history. If you feel like an insight into ancient times, head to the Iron Age hill forts of Lewesdon Hill, 1 mile, and Pilsdon Pen, 3.5 miles. The Jurassic Coast is just 8 miles away, and at Eype Beach your furry bestie can run and play all year round. After your adventures you can relax in the pub in Stoke Abbott, 1.5 miles, which welcomes well-behaved dogs in the bar.
