Unwind at this picture-postcard cottage in the pretty village of Higher Wraxall. This holiday home is the epitome of relaxation; it's nestled within a tranquil hamlet, surrounded by rolling countryside and has ample space for a large family or group of friends. Perfect! Let yourselves into this 16th-century thatched cottage and step through into the country-style kitchen, where your first thought is a piping hot mug of tea. Feeling warm and homely, light the fireplace, sink into one of two pillowy sofas and catch up with the latest box office hit on the Smart TV. On balmy evenings, enjoy a family feast on the enclosed patio while savouring the commanding views across the mature gardens and pretty borders. The first floor hosts three beautifully appointed bedrooms: two doubles and a single with an additional pull-out guest bed. After a great night's sleep, find a few private moments to catch up with emails on the generous study spot on the landing before heading downstairs for a hearty breakfast and catching up with your nearest and dearest. Set out on foot to explore the incredible countryside of Dorset, where you'll find lush greenery, quaint thatched cottages and ancient stone walls. Just outside the cottage, there’s a part of the national cycle route for those who prefer seeing the sights on a bike. The nearby villages of Evershot, Cattistock and Maiden Newton (2 miles) offer a range of shops, eateries and chocolate-box cottages, while 17 miles away, the seaside destination of Weymouth and Lyme Regis provides classic days at the seaside.
