1 Bed in Stoke Abbott (oc-35012)

Set in an idyllic location in the Dorset National Landscape, this charming property is perfect for couples and is one of three 19th-century former farm buildings converted into stylish holiday cottages. The property’s position offers fabulous countryside views, plenty of trails to explore, and a wealth of local history – including the ancient Iron Age forts of Lewesdon Hill and Pilsdon Pen. The space Walkers will love exploring the popular Wessex Ridgeway trail that passes nearby, as well as the welcoming pub in Stoke Abbott (2 miles), which beckons for a post-hike pint. You’ll be within easy reach of some charming towns and villages, including Beaminster (4.5 miles) and Bridport (5.5 miles). Head south to the much-photographed Jurassic Coast (8 miles) to explore West Bay and the ever-popular Lyme Regis (15 miles). Within 23 miles, there are many other attractions, including the National Trust’s Tintinhull Gardens, Montacute House, and the Fleet Air Arm Museum. Before stepping into this historic Dorset cottage, take a moment to admire its stone-built exterior and the peaceful rural features that surround you, setting the scene for a charming countryside stay. Head inside and be greeted by an impressive open-plan living space featuring exposed stone walls and ceiling beams, as well as skylights that flood the room with natural light. Unwind in the lounge area after days of Dorset adventure; sink into the soft seating, fire up the wood burner on chilly nights, and find your favourite series on the Smart TV – perfect for cosy evenings together. A bespoke kitchen stands ready for cooking up holiday feasts, which can be enjoyed at the central dining table or al fresco out on the patio. At the end of each exciting day away, retire to the restful double bedroom with its four-poster bed, vintage stained-glass window, and sleek en-suite shower room with a walk-in shower. Outside, at the front of the property, awaits a peaceful and private patio featuring outdoor dining furniture for al fresco drinks and meals together. The shared courtyard is fully enclosed, and you will also benefit from off-road parking for one car.
