With panoramic views of the sea and the extensive countryside, this property is packed full of contemporary style, rural charm and spacious interiors.

This stunning hillside property offers a seaside retreat with panoramic views of the beach, rolling countryside, and its very own meadow — the perfect place from which to explore Dorset. And with big, suntrap rooms, and space for eight pals, this is a great chance for that long-overdue family reunion.

Find this property at the peak of a sloping, beautifully landscaped garden. A set of stone steps curls around pretty planting and a lawn washed by the sea breeze. Enter to find the house's sociable living spaces: a kitchen and dining room, with a family-size table beside a bay window looks out to sea, ideal for family bonding. Head through into the sitting room, delightfully decorated with nautical touches, a feature wood burner, and another sea view. Beside this sitting room is an additional cosy lounge area - the sunroom - where guests can retreat from the party, read a book or simply daydream in front of (yes) another coastal view. There's even a pair of French doors leading to a balcony, with its own sweet seating area, so you can enjoy your night cap or morning coffee in the fresh air. When you're ready to bed down, there are pretty and stylish bedrooms to choose from on all levels of this hillside house. On the ground floor, you'll find a gorgeous double and neighbouring bathroom. On the lower ground, a twin with shower room leads out to the patio via a pair of French doors, making it perfect for young adults or cousins to enjoy some independence during their stay. Up on the first floor is another double and twin with marvellous views of your heathland surroundings. Outside the property, the grounds are designed especially to make the most of the elevated location. Patio areas and rolling lawns wrap around the house, so you and your family can enjoy many different perspectives of this beautiful slice of countryside, eating alfresco, playing games, and just simply relaxing.

A very special holiday home in a truly beautiful location. Wonderful views of the coast & countryside. Well equipped, ample parking. Walkers have lots of options right from the door. Stunning beaches within a 10-15 minute walk. We enjoyed walking over the fields and onto the coast path to Old Harry rocks & Swanage, as well as a longer walk to CorfeRead more Castle, returning on the steam train. The no.50 bus is great if you want to explore without driving too. Great pubs/restaurants nearby. Fab! Hide

Braeside is a charming coastal property in a stunning location, and we loved the beach theme in all of the rooms.
