The Experience
The drawing room is cosy, comfortable and attractive with gentle Farrow and Ball colours, striking fabrics, a merry wood-burner and lots of books and games. The kitchen is a good size and well stocked with plenty of pretty china and glasses, a big table for convivial meals and whatever you’ve ordered for breakfast waiting for you. Or you can walk through the estate to the pub and have it cooked for you. It’s a generous place too – you’re left decanters of whisky, port and brandy, chocolate brownies and crisps and sweets.
Bedrooms – the main double on the first floor with a freestanding bath looking over the lake and an en suite bathroom, the bunk room up a further flight of stairs – are reached via a spiral stone staircase. There’s a shower room and extra loo on the ground floor.
Wander down to the lake for an evening stroll, continue to the Beckford Arms for exceptional food from a seasonal menu. Walk back under dark starry skies.

Location
The neighbourhood
Walks and cycles in the countryside around you are lovely. The estate road is a public road so there will be through traffic but not busy. A five-minute walk will take you to a good deli called Bird & Cater, otherwise you can find independent shops, a tea shop, deli, butcher and a café in the art gallery at Tisbury (a ten-minute drive). Salisbury is 15 miles for the cathedral, river walks and market.

Introducing
Dan Brod & Charlie Luxton
Dan Brod, Charlie Luxton (ex-Soho House) and Matt Greenlees are the dream team that head up four pubs with rooms in the South West, plus the Beckford Bottle Shop in Bath. They have a talent for making their ventures super stylish: comfy bedrooms, superb food and good value are their not-so-secret ingredients. Charlie's wife, Chloe, produces the Bramley range of smellies that you find in each place.
It is like a lovely intimate cottage attached to a monument - made warm and inviting with imaginative use of colour , lots of books to read curled up on a comfortable sofa or chair in front of a blazing wood fire after a long walk. The owners appear to have thought of everything.
