Situated at the heart of the picturesque Somerset village of Henstridge, only 1 mile away from Stalbridge town, this cosy cottage makes a lovely retreat for families, couples and friends eager to enjoy peaceful rural walks in serene surroundings. The immediate area features a golf club, nature reserve and the Gartell Light Railway, all within a couple of miles. Other local attractions and landmarks include Duncliffe Wood, the Haynes Motor Museum, the Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm Museum and Lytes Cary Manor, all within 17 miles. The North Dorset Trailway runs close to the historic town of Sturminster Newton (7.5 miles), or you can explore the beautiful estate at Stourhead (14.5 miles) in the north-eastern corner of the magnificent Cranborne Chase National Landscape. With Shaftesbury (10.5 miles) and Sherborne (7 miles) both within easy reach, this is a fantastic base for exploring the breathtaking countryside of Somerset, Dorset and Wiltshire.


Accessed via a side-gate, this cute cottage features a welcoming entrance hallway which leads through to a lounge decorated in fresh, restful shades. With ample seating, a Smart TV and a wood burner, this is an ideal space for everyone to unwind in. The lounge also has a handy sofa bed for one additional guest (available on request). Heading through an opening in the wall, you’ll find the elegantly presented dining room is perfect for enjoying a family get-together, and leads along to a sleek, fully equipped kitchen with plenty of storage space. Beside the staircase leading to the first floor is a stylishly arranged bathroom with a shower over the bath. Going upstairs, a WC can be found on the first-floor landing, alongside a choice of three bright and relaxing beamed bedrooms: a snug double with a TV, a cosy single, and a lovely king-size room with a TV and en-suite WC.


Doors from the kitchen lead to the enclosed wraparound garden, with a lawn, patio, and a charming vine-covered seating area perfect for dining alfresco on a sunny afternoon, alongside a delightful summer house. Roadside parking can be found across the road, immediately opposite the property, subject to availability.
