Embrace the peace and tranquillity of life in the spectacular Dorset countryside at this charming former farmworker's cottage. As one of a collection of four recently renovated residences, it's perfect for a weekend retreat with immediate family, or it can be booked in combination with adjacent cottages for larger group get-togethers.Your hosts have considered every detail in transforming the cottages into high-end holiday homes.
However, they've been careful to preserve the period features and rustic charm you'd expect of a stay in the English countryside. Beautiful oak doors, an eye-catching brick fireplace and exposed beams in the bedrooms all add to the overall aesthetic. Even the sleek Shaker-style kitchen, equipped with all the mod cons, is in keeping with the style.
Elsewhere, make the most of those seemingly endless summer evenings and enjoy the privacy of your own patio, leading to the charming country garden and inviting pool – both shared with other guests. Beyond the back garden, a path leads you to the nearby pub garden, where you can sup a cider in the sun after a refreshing dip.
Alternatively, follow the public footpath into the rugged wilds of the Dorset countryside. As an official Area of Natural Beauty (AONB), the landscape calls out to be explored and guarantees breathtaking scenery at every turn. Further south, the South West Coast Path hugs the awe-inspiring Jurassic Coast and is well worth the approximately 20-mile drive.
Return home at the end of an unforgettable day and stock up on essentials at the village shop, while there's always the Gaggle of Geese pub if you don't feel like cooking.

Home truths
The shared outdoor pool is available seasonally from May-September. Your host has 3 more cottages in this terrace also bookable on Plum Guide which sleep 4-6 - they all share the pool and wider gardens, making them great for an extended family trip.. Please note that the staircase is relatively steep and narrow, so it may not be suitable for guests with more limited mobility. Child-friendly amenities (high chairs, cots) are available on request – please enquire at the time of booking. Your first basket of logs for the wood burner is provided. There's a well-equipped children's playground on the premises. Your hosts live on the grounds and are on hand for anything you might need.
