Situated in a tranquil setting among rolling countryside and historic grounds, this welcoming property is super stylish and provides four guests with a special retreat away from it all. The thriving village of Tisbury (2.5 miles) has an eclectic mix of independent boutiques and places you can grab a bite to eat. Further afield are the bustling towns of Shaftesbury (8 miles) and Salisbury (16.5 miles). Nearby, you can explore the stunning countryside and historic sites. The ruins of Old Wardour Castle (1 mile) are a fascinating glimpse into the 14th century and is a lovely spot for a picnic, or a long walk alongside the lake and through the park. Prescombe Down National Nature Reserve is 6 miles from here and is a haven for wildlife lovers and hiking enthusiasts.

Step into this beautifully bright and airy home and find a contemporary open-plan living area. Made up of the kitchen, dining area, and living area, this is an ideal space for socialising, cooking, eating, and playing games. Set underneath a glass ceiling, the kitchen has everything you need to create culinary delights, and a central table is great for meals of all occasions. Unwind in the lounge, watch TV, and warm up in front of the wood burner of an evening. As the day draws to a close, find the two bedrooms via the hallway, both sumptuous super-king-sizes that share a family bathroom complete with a shower, and a free-standing bath.

Outside, a lovely, terraced garden is a real suntrap, a perfect spot to sip on an evening tipple and enjoy al fresco dining. The shared parking area accommodates four cars and is situated around 100 metres from the property.

From the moment we arrived to the moment we left our stay at the The Garden Cottage was perfect. Our host could not do enough to make sure we had everything we needed. The cottage was equipped with everything we could possible need. The extra touches of welcome goodies and toiletries was much appreciated. Everything in the cottage was exceptional qRead moreuality. The bed and pillows were really comfortable and again of high quality. The accommodation is spacious with lots of room. The garden area is a beautiful private sunny spot. We were blessed with really good weather during our stay and ate outside every day. I should imagine it is equally as cosy in the winter months as there is a wood burning stove and underfloor heating. In the evening after our meal we usually went for a stroll around the grounds . Very quiet and peaceful with just the sounds of the local wildlife. Plenty of parking never had a problem. Lots of supermarkets nearby to stock up and we did a park and ride into Salisbury. We truly did have a perfect holiday at The Garden Cottage and will be returning. Maybe at a different time of year to experience another season. Would definitely recommend this holiday let. I think I can count on one hand the holiday lets we have stayed in that have really made an impression on me and this is certainly one of them. Thanks for such a lovely stay I was sorry to leave.
