For those craving a countryside retreat, this charming Dorset cottage presents the ideal place to escape to. Enlivened with rustic charm and kitted out with all the amenities you could wish for, from the moment you walk through the front door, you’ll feel your shoulders drop and your stresses melt away. It’s time to unwind in style. With its white–washed facade, slate roof and mint–green picture windows, from the outset, this place looks utterly blissful – and as we make our way through the front door, we can’t help but feel instantly at home. From the dark, wooden floorboards to the pendant lights of the stylish shaker kitchen, this cottage is packed with homey appeal. We particularly love the blue velvet sofa in the living area. As dusk settles, make a beeline for its snuggly depths and while the evening away over a large mug of cocoa as you contemplate the roaring fire. Inside you’ll also find a beautiful dining area made for sociable feasts with family and friends, three dreamy bedrooms and a bathtub – ideal for moments when a touch of ‘me time’ is needed. Simply pour yourself a large glass of red and recline into your bubbly bliss and indulge in some well–deserved R&R. There’s a heck of a lot to love about this place, but the real piece de resistance has got to be the heated outdoor pool. Perfect for daytime and evenings alike, plunge into its crystalline waters for an invigorating dip before showering off & refuelling with a tasty treat from the kitchen.

About Dorset AONB
It’s been more than sixty years since half of Dorset was classified as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and while the world has changed immeasurably in that time, this corner of England looks much the same as it did back then.
