The Experience

Two chic cottages in a majestic estate flanked by orchards and organic vegetable gardens. Take a drink – or sketchpad – to the terrace for views of Wimborne Minster, distant cricket matches and the birds over Stour Meadows; sunsets are stunning. Exposed stonework reflects the 18th-century origins of these Georgian gardeners’ cottages. Clean-lined interiors reflect 21st-century design. Spotlights gleam off brick walls washed in porcelain white, a rustic yet contemporary canvas for original oils, vintage chairs, oriental cushions. Apple has an inglenook fireplace, Plum a spacious elm table to enjoy if you take both cottages together. Sisal carpets lead to simple bedrooms where linen blinds frame meadow views. Cook and eat in modern country kitchens then step out to a private garden lined with fruit trees; each cottage has it’s own gravel patio with removable fencing allowing them to be opened up when booking Apple and Plum together. Plum comes with its own shepherd’s hut: duck egg blue walls and a French enamelled wood-burner. An easy walk from historic Wimborne, a short drive from blue flag beaches at Poole and Bournemouth, and perfect for big groups who can book both cottages and the nearby Gate House.

Reviews

Mary, Chelmsford

Our fourth stay in this lovely cottage. A real home from home. There really is nothing missing. We love the peace and quiet whilst being only a really short walk into the town centre. A truly restful weekend break.


Peter, Salisbury

Top drawer accommodation which is very professionally managed resulting in a very enjoyable stay.


Andrew, Lichfield

This is a very well equipped cottage in a very peaceful location looking over open countryside yet within short walk of the centre of Wimborne. We were made welcome and Jonathan was always available to answer any queries. A nice welcome card and delicious welcome hamper of food much appreciated. Wimborne well situated to visit places of interest in cast and country.


Elaine, Broadstone

Such an amazing second stay in Apple Cottage! Just beautiful! So relaxed and chilled in the comfortable and well presented cottage with everything you need for a perfect holiday. The welcome pack was such a fantastic touch together with the beautiful flowers on arrival. There’s nothing to fault other than having to leave! Loved both our stays at Apple Cottage but even more so this time having family in Plum Cottage next door with the fencing removed making it easy to move between both cottages!


Francesca, Wimborne

We stayed at Apple Cottage with friends for our wedding. It was incredibly special and memorable. The most beautiful setting, so peaceful too. The cottage itself was clean, beautifully decorated and the grounds around the cottage are so well kept. Deans Court is stunning, which is why we chose to have our wedding there! You won’t be disappointed! Also added bonus to see the very cute goats in the grounds.


Location

The neighbourhood

Local points of interest from Jonathan Cornish

  • Situated within the grounds of Deans Court, these C18th farm-hands’ cottages have been renovated to provide contemporary comfort in a rural setting.
  • To get the cottages you will drive past the walled-kitchen garden, where vegetables are grown for our veg baskets.
  • Visit the Deans Court Cafe, enjoy salads, soups, homemade quiches, cakes etc. Open everyday except Sunday. Also pop into our vintage shop situated in a converted squash court adjacent to the cafe.
  • An easy walk from historic Wimborne, with a great selection of restaurants and shops. (Including a Waitrose)
  • For large groups, we also have The Gate House (sleeping 16) and we can arrange for all levels of catering as suits your needs - get in touch for more info.
