The Experience
Perfect for family holidays. Each cottage has its own patio for al fresco meals, then you can explore the stunning communal garden with its mature trees, colourful shrubs and flowers and plenty of seasonal fruit and veg which you’re welcome to help yourselves to. Children will find another little gate into a play area with swings and a slide so they’ll soon make friends with any other children staying, leaving you to sit in peace.
There’s plenty of comfortable seating indoors, a big telly for rainy days and a merry wood-burner to keep you cosy. The kitchen is a good size, is well-equipped and has a central island for prepping and all the basics for cooking along with a generous welcome pack of local eggs, home-baked cake, milk, bread and butter. You can order baked goods, jams and chutneys in advance and there’s a pub with a huge garden serving good food right next door.
Swim in the communal pool, light the barbecue, unwind.

Location
The neighbourhood
In the village you'll find a little shop and post office and marked walks which you'll find details of in the information pack. The Gaggle of Geese next door serves good pub classics and holds many community events. The next village is Cerne Abbas, mentioned in the Domesday book and famous for its giant chalk figure. Sherborne and Dorchester are both 10 miles, Weymouth just under half an hour.
Local points of interest from Adele Murray
- Dorchester – the county town. Visit the Roman Town House and Amphitheatre and also stand in the dock where the Martyrs stood trial.
- Sherborne – a beautiful and historic market town, home to Sherborne Abbey, Castle (the former home of Sir Walter Raleigh) and Gardens. The town itself has a wide range of individually owned shops, boutiques and antique shops to while away the afternoon.
- Milton Abbas – the epitome of a Dorset village, dozens of beautiful thatched cob cottages lining each side of the only road in and out of the village, complete with pub and tea rooms serving delicious food. The Abbey church close by is also open to the public.
- Weymouth – The classic English seaside resort and a favourite bathing place of George III. Sandy beaches with brightly coloured beach huts, punch and judy and donkey rides, sit comfortably alongside a back drop of independent shops, cafés and restaurants.
- Wareham – sits on the banks of the River Frome and is a saxon walled town. A great place to wander around with various unique shops and cafes. Hire a boat or kayak or for the less energetic board a river cruise to while away an hour or two.
- Jurassic Coast – a World Heritage site, stretching from Studland Bay, on the southern shore of Poole Harbour, to Exmouth in East Devon. The Dorset coast incorporates just over 80 miles of the South West Coast Path along this stretch.
