Cottage in Dorset in Poole, Dorset

Cottage in Dorset Self-Catering

This property enjoys a fantastic location within the Saxon walls of the quayside town of Wareham. Everything that the town has to offer is just a short walk from the property, including a range of unusual independent shops, weekly market, and sports centre. The town quay is a fantastic place to visit, whether you want to sit in the pub and watch the boats go by, or take a boat trip along the River Frome down to Poole Harbour. The area is well known for its stunning coast line, and guests to this property have a great choice of sandy beaches on the Bournemouth side of Poole Harbour, or the fossil rich beaches and dramatic seascapes of the Jurassic Coast. This property is a fine example of a period cottage, and retains many period features, giving it a cosy and atmospheric feel. The lounge is a great example of this, with its beamed ceiling and inglenook fireplace which houses a warming wood burner. However, guests do not need to forego modern creature comforts, and there is a TV/DVD, and iPod in the room which can all be enjoyed from the comfortable sofas. The country style kitchen/diner has underfloor heating, so there is no need to get cold toes in the morning, and is home to a dining table seating four. The kitchen area itself is well equipped, and offers a Range oven, hob, fridge with ice compartment, whilst the microwave, freezer, and washer/dryer can be found in the separate utility room. Steep, cottage style stairs lead from the lounge to the first floor accommodation where there are two bedrooms. Both of these are king size rooms, each with plenty of storage space and a dressing table. The main bathroom is also located on the first floor and offers a bath with handheld shower and WC, whilst there is also a ground floor shower room with shower and WC. Outside, the property benefits from an enclosed patio garden which has garden furniture and a BBQ, making it a lovely spot to unwind with a drink at the end of a busy day of sightseeing. There is parking for one small car which is accessed via a narrow entrance, whilst there is also roadside parking available locally for larger cars.
