The Experience
Rural chic at its best! A thatched 18th-century cottage bursting with character and clutter-free style. Dreamy window seats, an inglenook fireplace, oak floorboards and latch doors, exposed beams, cob walls, wood-burners, a rustic antique dining table, a vintage leather armchair… fresh flowers, soft furnishings, candles and contemporary artwork complete the picture. Picasso print line drawings dot the kitchen – a long, narrow Victorian addition with stone flooring, a painted dresser and all you’ll need. Up the cottagey stairs to the oh-so-pretty bedrooms, light and luxuriously carpeted with views of church, water meadows and woods beyond. Both have king-size, French style, cream iron beds, crisp white cotton and chests of drawers; the larger gets a buttonback chair, the smaller, a cast-iron fireplace, and the spacious bathroom between them has sumptuous towels and toiletries. All this, and a herb and flower-planted garden, in the quietest part of a most attractive village in Dorset. Fantastic for cycling and chalk ridge walks, and a ten-minute drive from Georgian Blandford. It’ll be hard to leave.

This is a perfect cottage in a wonderful location. Emma ensures a beautiful stay where you sense everything in every room smacks of quality. It is spotless throughout and very classy. You can eat in, or there's a romantic little garden and a lovely walk to the local Inn with good food and drink. We will be visiting for a third time when we can.

This is a home away from home. The house is lovely and very well equipped, the host was very helpful and quick to respond and Durweston is a pretty little village set in some beautiful countryside. We would love to visit again.

A beautiful cottage set in tranquil surroundings opposite the village church. The interior was fitted to a high standard and particularly tasteful. Everything we needed for a relaxing few days. Thanks Emma, a lovely property.

Local points of interest from Emma Perry
- With so many beautiful walks from your doorstep you can certainly leave the car parked up for the day.
- The lovely Georgian market town of Blandford Forum is just a short drive away although we like to put our walking shoes on and meander our way through the beautiful grounds of Bryanston School next to the river Stour
- The stunning Jurassic Coast with cliff top walks and beautiful sandy beaches lies just 35 minutes away by car. Our favourite beach is Studland which boasts amazing views, horse riding, sailing and water sports. It really does cater for everyone.
- The superb hill fort of Hod Hill has the greatest views over rural Dorset and is home to spectacular wild flowers and butterflies. Enjoy a breathtaking walk towards the summit of Hambledon Hill, an iron age Hill fort and why not take a picnic.
- You may want to take the opportunity to visit Bath or Salisbury during your stay. They are both an easy drive away or you may choose to visit Shaftsbury and Gold Hill (which is where the memorable Hovis Ad was filmed)
- Lovely local pubs for great food and drink. I will be very happy to introduce you to our favourites.

Lovely stay, very pretty cottage and wonderfully clean. Beds were super comfy which is always a plus. I can recommend this to anyone, and great location in peaceful village for exploring the local area. We had a great time.
