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

Sally, Jersey

We booked the two cottages and The Gate House for our son's wedding in Wimborne and it could not have been more perfect. Very clean, well furnished and exceptionally well equipped accommodation with a glorious outlook from Apple and Plum cottages over the surrounding countryside. The delicious welcome pack of essentials and vase of fresh flowers were a special touch. Jonathan and staff were charming and super helpful. A truly memorable weekend in an idyllic setting. Thank you


Shelley, Leicester

We had the best of both worlds staying at Plum Cottage, it was set in a beautiful garden overlooking fields to the rear and then a 5 minute stroll took you into Wimborne, with lovely pubs, restaurants and shops. Would definitely love to return one day. X

As four old (literally!) friends, we had a really lovely holiday in Apple cottage which had been recommended to me. Everything about the cottage, it’s amazing garden and surrounding countryside makes you relax straight away. We even saw a little red deer in the field. Jonathan and the staff were so helpful, leaving us goodies and were there to answer any questions. Once through the imposing estate gates we were in the charming little town of Wimborne with it’s beautiful old Minster. We are certainly going to book again.

What a fabulous weekend! Having both cottages made my whole wedding calm, relaxed and wonderful. Getting ready whilst looking out onto the beautiful fields and having photos in my the garden was like a dream come true. The cottages cater for everyone, the home made cookies and fresh milk and bread were a lovely added extra! We couldn’t of been happier over the weekend and can’t wait to come back at some point!


Verity

Staying at Plum Cottage over our wedding weekend at Deans Court was incredible. My husband and his ushers stayed the night before our wedding and then we used the remainder of our weekend to relax and take it all in. It is absolutely picturesque with views over the countryside at the rear. The cottage itself has everything you need and the small touches provided by the staff at Deans Court made our stay one of a kind. We will always remember our stay at Deans Court and the special weekend we enjoyed celebrating with family and friends.

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.
