Set in the peaceful Dorset countryside, in the heart of the Cranborne Chase National Landscape, this stylish barn conversion offers couples and small families, with up to two canine companions, a wonderful holiday base. Many of the region’s best attractions are within easy reach. Begin your stay with a trip to Blandford Forum (8 miles), a charming Georgian market town known for its elegant architecture and riverside walks along the Stour.
Access this welcoming property through the garden, then head inside to discover a delightful interior spread across one level, bathed in natural light thanks to a double-height ceiling, patio doors, and skylights. An open-plan living space combines a kitchen/dining/lounge area that is the heart of the home, and where four paws will find a favourite spot. Unwind in the comfortable lounge seating, watch a family film on the Smart TV and snuggle up in front of the roaring wood burner on cooler nights. The contemporary kitchen boasts everything needed for cooking up family favourites, to be enjoyed at the wooden table. Sleep soundly in one of two bright double bedrooms, one an en-suite, and both offering access to the garden through French doors. A contemporary family bathroom completes this cottage's features. Outside, the enclosed gravelled garden is ideal for al fresco dining and letting children and dogs play safely. There’s private parking for one car, with additional roadside parking available.
