Set within the owner's grounds is this wonderfully self-contained quirky detached barn conversion, tucked away in a quiet corner of Dorset, perfect for an escape to a stunning countryside destination.

A spacious private driveway brings you right to the property, enter through contemporary bi-folding doors into a characterful setting, welcomed with traditional low-beamed ceilings and stylish fixtures into the open-plan living area.

Meals can be enjoyed at the dining table, a lovely sociable space for you and your loved ones to catch up after a busy day of exploring Dorset, or use the handy breakfast bar for a quick bowl of cereal before heading out.

Spend an evening with your feet up in front of the TV accompanied by a glass of wine and snuggling with your other half, or get comfy on the plush sofa during a rainy afternoon, keeping warm with a blanket and a cup of coffee whilst you get lost in a book.

When you're ready to get some rest, withdraw to one of the two gorgeous bedrooms, either a ground-floor king-size bedroom with full access to the downstairs walk-in shower room, or the incredible first-floor twin room, hiding behind stunning princess-style canopies, accompanied by your very own living area, this space is fantastic for kids to use as their very own play room, with access to another refreshing shower room.

Rustle up a tasty burger on the barbecue, found on the enclosed outdoor patio, a lovely spot to dine alfresco on a summer's day, or enjoy a warming morning cup of tea in the autumn.

Encompassed by stunning countryside fields and tucked away on an idyllic private lane, you're just walking distance away from a choice of two pubs which serve food on an evening when you don't fancy cooking.

WAREHAM

  • Corfe Castle 5 miles
  • Poole 9 miles
  • Swanage 11 miles

Wareham, affectionately known as the ‘Gateway to the Purbecks’ is an ancient Dorset waterside market town. Situated between the River Frome and quaintly named River Piddle, its charming riverside location makes the town a popular holiday destination. Dating back to Saxon times, the town was once surrounded by walls, and became an important port with boats bringing supplies up the River Frome from nearby Poole harbour. Today, the river provides a great playground, you can hire a boat from the attractive quayside and chug your way down the stream, take one of the regular organised boat trips, browse the colourful Saturday market or simply just enjoy an ice cream or a drink relaxing on the Quayside. Whilst seasonally there are also numerous popular events taking place beside the river. A short drive takes you to the Arne peninsula jutting out into Poole Harbour, a designated RSPB reserve, where you can stroll down to the water’s edge, taking in glimpses of the impressive bird population and often viewing some of the resident deer. The friendly seaside resort of Swanage is also easily accessible, where you can experience a traditional family-friendly day out on the beach, or take the coastal path and stop off for refreshment at Durlston Country Park. A real treat is to drive to nearby Corfe Castle and take the vintage steam railway to Swanage. Wareham offers visitors a super Dorset holiday destination at anytime of the year.
