Overview
Property code: 78462

Striking house set in an enviable position within a tranquil rural village. Ideally placed for day trips to the Jurassic Coast, walking or simply admiring the stunning views over open countryside.

Sleeping ten guests across five bedrooms, this five-star luxury property lies at the foot of chalk hills in the Bride Valley of West Dorset. It’s the ideal holiday spot for an extended family who want to catch-up on a relaxing holiday together. You’re just 3 miles from the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site with miles of beaches to explore, and you’ll find good road links for day trips throughout the region. Enid Blyton fans can also visit many of the places which inspired the author in Dorset, particularly Swanage, Brownsea Island and the Isle of Purbeck.

From the private driveway, step inside this handsome two-storey property where you’ll find a welcoming hallway and bright country-style interiors in calming hues. The contemporary kitchen and dining area is well-equipped for mealtimes, featuring a range-style electrical oven and gas hob, an American-style fridge freezer, a dishwasher and a microwave. There’s a convenient utility room with a washing machine and tumble dryer, a ground floor WC, and a boot room lobby. Enjoy film evenings in the spacious living room which has Sky TV and an open fire, or unwind in the separate snug and book library. Snuggle up in one of five en-suite bedrooms, there’s a convenient ground floor en-suite bedroom and four en-suite bedrooms upstairs, which can be reconfigured for your group, and all of the bathrooms have toasty underfloor heating. Outside, there’s a spacious south-facing BBQ terrace with seating, great for al fresco evenings; and a wide flight of stone steps leads to beautiful rolling lawns - have a go at croquet or badminton or relax by the large enclosed pond. Ample off-road parking is available for guests and there’s a pub within walking distance and shops within easy reach (4 miles). It’s a short stroll into the picture-postcard village of Litton Cheney.

Great place for a family holiday. Quiet and off the beaten track, although close enough to some very nice, and generally undiscovered, beaches. At the same time close enough to the bigger attractions. The garden is lovely for kids to play and for outside eating.
