A welcoming barn set in wonderful surroundings just 7 miles from the Jurassic Coast, one of the UK’s 33 World Heritage Sites. Featuring a cosy lounge/diner, patio and open lawn, access to a shared games room, the barn is perfect for small families or groups keen to explore the Dorset AONB and West Dorset Heritage Coast’s cultural, historical and natural attractions. The barn is located at the end of a long driveway and is one of four occupying an area surrounded by trees and acres of farmland. The airy lounge/diner comes complete with rustic furnishings arranged across a solid wooden floor, while foodies will be in their element in the kitchen next door. Upstairs, two striking bedrooms upstairs - a super-king and a double, stand close to a spacious family bathroom. Doors in the lounge lead out into an enclosed garden, split between a patio and a lawn area, an appropriate spot for morning coffees and BBQ suppers. A shared games room nearby is ideal for youngsters who want some time to themselves. Maiden Newton (2 miles) is a charming village that lies on the banks of the River Frome and is home to a range of family-friendly pubs and shops. The reserves at Hog Cliff, Kingcombe Meadows, Powerstock Common and Vale of Stones (within 6 miles) are places to reconnect with nature. Dorchester (8 miles) is a must for lovers of classic English literature, while Abbotsbury (12 miles) is close to one of the many stunning stretches of the Jurassic Coast.
