This beautifully reworked former barn sits within a historic farmstead and has been thoughtfully transformed into a characterful retreat for friends or family. Tucked away in the quiet hamlet of Sedgehill, this rural location suits those craving a slower pace and rural adventures with their four-legged companion in tow.
A shared driveway leads to the property’s ample parking and a private entrance opening into a welcoming hallway. Off the hall sits a handy utility room with a washer/dryer, alongside a separate cloakroom. To one side, the kitchen/diner looks out over the landscaped garden and shares the glow of a dual-aspect wood burner that Rover will adore. Newly fitted in 2026, the U-shaped kitchen is well set up for hearty breakfasts or post-walk suppers. From here, step into the lounge where a vaulted ceiling, exposed heritage details and garden-facing doors create a warm, inviting feel. A Smart TV and another view of the wood burner make this a cosy spot to settle in with your hound stretched out nearby. The ground floor also hosts the first of three individually styled super-king-size bedrooms, which can be arranged as a twin on request, complete with an en-suite shower room. An oak staircase leads upstairs, passing a small desk area, before reaching two further super-king-size bedrooms tucked into the eaves. One has an en-suite bathroom, the other an en-suite shower room, both showcasing original roof timbers and charming sloping ceilings. All bedrooms include Smart TVs and are dressed in crisp White Company linens. Doors from the lounge open onto landscaped gardens with a patio furnished for outdoor dining. It’s a lovely setting for morning coffee while your canine companion potters nearby.
The historic hilltop town of Shaftesbury lies 5 miles away, home to the iconic Gold Hill cobbled street and a mix of independent shops and pet-positive eateries. History hounds can investigate the abbey ruins, while nearby Semley (2 miles) has a village shop, pub and antiques centre. Motcombe, 2.5 miles away, is handy for essentials or a drink in the dog-friendly pub. Within a 25-mile radius, days out are plentiful, from Stonehenge and Stourhead to the cathedral cities of Salisbury and Bath – all with scenic paths to get tails wagging.
