Immerse yourself in idyllic countryside with this charming rural retreat, offering the perfect blend of serenity and convenience. Nestled amidst picturesque fields and on a cycle route, you can bask in the tranquillity or venture out to explore the nearby surroundings easily by car. A short 2-mile journey leads you to the village of Maiden Newton, home to plenty of local amenities. Alternatively, a scenic 7-mile drive south takes you to the ever-popular Jurassic Coast. Visit a wealth of attractions, including Burton Bradstock, Dorchester, Abbotsbury's Swannery and gardens, as well as West Bexington, which are all easily accessible. Don't miss Weymouth and Portland, where you can delve into the rich maritime history of the area or browse the high street.

Part of a complex of 4 adjoining properties, this barn sits at the end of a long drive, unmade in places and surrounded by rolling countryside. The private entrance door opens into a welcoming hallway, where you'll find the first of the two bathrooms straight ahead. On the left is an inviting open-plan lounge/diner. This sociable room has been cleverly divided with the lounge area to the left, arranged around the wood burner and smart TV and space to dine in comfort just opposite. The kitchen can be found through an arch and being just next door, you can chat whilst you prepare your favourite meals. Heading upstairs, you'll find the two bedrooms and a cosy study with space to sit and enjoy a good book. Completing this floor is the second bathroom.

Doors lead from the lounge to a private patio with furniture and a charcoal BBQ, ideal for al fresco meals. There is an open lawn, screened in part with hedging, which is the perfect place to sit back and relax whilst you listen to birdsong. A shared games room sits at the opposite end of the terrace, furnished with a 3 in 1 table (pool/table tennis and air hockey) plus a dart board.

An ideal cottage for a relaxing 'get away from it all' break. The cottage itself is extremely clean and well equipped, with views of fields. The owners, Andrea and Mark are friendly and helpful. Ideal for exploring the beautiful county of Dorset. We hope to return next year.

What an amazing cottage this is, lovely and clean with everything you need. We arrived to find complementary tea, coffee, milk and biscuits and were made to feel very welcome from the owners Andrea and Mark. Set in lovely remote grounds, surrounded by open fields where we could watch deer, squirrels and other wildlife from the window. Would definitRead moreely go again. Hide
