The peaceful village of Berwick St John sits close to the Dorset–Wiltshire border and is an ideal retreat for those seeking rest and relaxation in beautiful countryside. Set within the Cranborne Chase International Dark Skies Reserve, it is also a wonderful destination for star gazers, offering exceptional views of unspoilt night skies. The village boasts a welcoming traditional pub, while history enthusiasts can explore the impressive ruins of Wardour Castle, just 2.5 miles away. Ludwell offers a butchers, stores and post office for everyday supplies, and Ansty has a popular farm shop and seasonal pick-your-own fruit farm, both within 2.5 miles. Five miles west lies the historic market town of Shaftesbury, where you can enjoy sweeping views across the Blackmore Vale, wander down Gold Hill, visit the abbey ruins and museum, and dine at one of its many eateries. Within 15 miles are Longleat House and Safari Park, Stourhead, and the cathedral city of Salisbury.
Enter this attractive property, set over a single level, and you will immediately feel a warm welcome. A generous hallway leads to an inviting sitting room, furnished with soft textures, calming colours and thoughtful touches that invite you to relax during your stay. Tuck up beside the open fire, put your favourite show on the Smart TV or open the doors to the garden and admire the view. Along the hall are the three lovely bedrooms. Sleep soundly in the charming king-size with en-suite bathroom, or choose the second equally lovely king-size, that shares a bathroom with the twin room next door. A handy utility area offers plenty of storage for boots and coats, as well as laundry facilities and you’ll find a useful separate WC is adjacent. Completing the accommodation is the sociable kitchen/diner. Flooded with natural light this spacious room has doors to the front of the property and a peninsula perfect for gathering around while you prepare meals.
From the sitting room wander out onto the terrace with garden furniture, where you can relax in the private hot tub or with a cool drink, sunbathe, or enjoy al fresco dining on sunny evenings. Challenge the family to garden games or perhaps light up the charcoal BBQ. There is private gated parking available for four cars.
