Description
Nestled in a peaceful hamlet near the Dorset-Devon border, this romantic countryside retreat offers the best of rural Somerset. Once part of the Forde Abbey estate, the one-bedroom cottage pairs period charm with modern comfort – think quirky antiques, soft armchairs, and a toasty woodburning stove. From the king-size bedroom, views roll out across open fields, where Herdwick sheep and chickens potter nearby. Start your day with coffee in the flower-filled front garden before wandering local footpaths, or venture further to Lyme Regis and the fossil-rich Jurassic Coast. Whether you're exploring country pubs, historical gardens or simply reading by the fire, this is a warm and characterful hideaway made for rest, rambling, and reconnecting.
Home truths: *The rear garden is not enclosed and is shared with the owners’ chickens and sheep.
*Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. Roadside parking is available on the quiet lane nearby. Amenities
