A magical hideaway in the rural depths of Dorset, this pretty abode offers natural beauty and tranquillity. Sleeping two guests, the one-bedroom, red-brick cottage is set in the hamlet of Chebbard, 3 miles from Milborne St Andrew. Plan afternoons out to the market towns of Dorchester and Blandford Forum. Peruse the fresh produce here and dine in eateries serving local delicacies. In Dorchester, take time to visit the National Trust’s Hardy’s House, Max Gate. This is an atmospheric Victorian home designed by author Thomas Hardy himself. Climb Bulbarrow Hill, 6 miles away, to take in the far-reaching views across the rolling countryside. Head 8 miles to Cerne Abbas to see the ancient figure of the chalk giant carved into the hill. Make a day trip down to Lulworth Cove, 17.5 miles away, to dip in the sea or follow a section of the South West Coast Path.

Feel immediately at home from the moment you step into this welcoming cottage. Discover an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, where you can unwind and simply enjoy being together. Take a step up into the kitchen area to put the kettle on to make a cup of tea to enjoy with a slice of delicious Dorset apple cake. Enjoy your snack at the table in the dining area or carry it over to the soft seating, where you can relax and enjoy the flickering heat of the wood burner. French doors from here open onto the garden, making this a wonderful space during the warmer months as well. Chat, read your books, or watch the Smart TV. As night falls, head up the central staircase to the first floor, where your gorgeous king-size bedroom is located. Turn a few pages of your holiday novel from the comfort of the plush velvet seat before stretching out on the luxurious bed with its high-quality bedding. Your gorgeous en-suite bathroom features both a free-standing roll-top bath and a walk-in shower.

Have coffee out in the sunshine on fine mornings. Throw a ball for your canine companion on the lawn, then grill supper on the charcoal BBQ. There is private parking for one car at this cottage, up a set of steps from the rear terrace.
