This characterful stone cottage is set on a hilltop with breathtaking views of Dorset’s countryside. Situated in the quaint village of Kingston, you will be admiring the chocolate box cottages and indulging in a cream tea in no time. There are plenty of energy-burning walks from your doorstep or just grab your buckets and head for the beach. Sleeping up to seven across four warm bedrooms and space for up to two furry-pawed pals, it is the perfect place to gather the family together to make lasting holiday memories.
This characterful property is set within a terrace. Period charm does mean low ceilings, doorways and varying levels so please bear in mind the mobility of your party. Comfortable sofas in the lounge invite you to relax in front of a film or doze the evening away. The kitchen has everything you need to feed hungry tums; a handy hidden TV/DVD in the dining room means meals can be long and leisurely. Bedrooms are spread across the cottage, from characterful bunk rooms in the converted outbuilding to a pretty double with space for a sleeping babe. An enclosed garden is perfect for pups and children to let off steam while you relax on the terrace or dine alfresco on sunnier days.
With views from the cottage, you will be curious to explore Corfe Castle (2 miles) which welcomes dogs on leads and hosts interactive history-inspired activities for little ones. Exercise legs and paws on a range of walks, from a circular pub walk around Old Harrys Rocks to the 6-mile South Purbeck Cliffs walk on the South West Coast Path. Swanage beach (5 miles) is perfect for some sandcastle building and has all you need for a family day out.
