Tastefully furnished, this old quarryman’s cottage boasts authentic period features on the inside and beautiful views over the Dorset countryside from the garden that will ensure you have the perfect rural getaway.
Escape from the bustle of city life at this delightful property in the peaceful village of Corfe Castle. With many walks from the garden, the perfect getaway for both two and four-legged guests is literally on your doorstep. So, pack the dog lead and the walking boots because whether it’s an ear-flappingly windy winter’s or a sunny midsummer’s day, you will want to be out exploring this idyllic spot.
Characterful yet not compromising on contemporary amenities, enjoy authentic period features such as flagstone floors and low beamed ceilings. The cosy sitting room with its comfortable sofas is perfect for lazy evenings, and your dog will think lying in front of the open fire is the ideal place to enjoy a snooze after the day’s excitement. Up the winding staircase and discover two comfortably eaved bedrooms, with space for a cosy, canine bed. Access the beautiful, spacious rear garden from the kitchen, and enjoy those warm summer evenings with an al fresco meal whilst admiring the splendid Purbeck Hills. In the morning, let Rover take the lead up to a lawn with shrubs, flower beds and an orchard with ample space to run, fetch and roll in the grass as you plan the day’s activities ahead.
With its location on a no-through lane leading to Corfe Common, enjoy peace and quiet but with the benefit of shops and pubs within just 500 metres. For the energetic dogs, take the 12-mile trail to Swanage over the Purbeck hills, or for a gentler walk head for the Agglestone on Godlingston Heath (6.5miles) from Studland (5 miles). For coastal delights, try Dancing Ledge (4 miles) or dash along the miles of golden sands and splash in the sheltered waters of Knoll Beach (6 miles).
