A chic retreat set on an attractive estate in Dorset, this impressive hideaway offers plenty of space to relax after mornings on the water, walks along the Jurassic Coast and trips around Dorset. With three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a fresh, modern design, the six-person lodge is set within an estate near Crossways, 6 miles from Dorchester, where guests can explore the freshwater lakes and nature reserve. During your stay, you might also like to try water sports on one of the lakes or hire cycles and venture further afield. Climb up to the Osmington White Horse to see the hill carving close up or wander around the ancient earthworks of Maiden Castle, both of which are within 7.5 miles. For a day at the beach, Lulworth Cove and Weymouth are 10 miles away, while the sweeping shingle stretch of Chesil Beach (16.5 miles) is perfect for a good stroll.

Step inside this spacious and airy holiday home, which is ideally positioned within easy walking distance of the spa and swimming pool. Decorated in a soft grey and white palette, the airy, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner has triple-aspect windows, two comfortable double sofas and an armchair, while the wood burner and TV make it a cosy place to settle in after a day exploring. The sleek adjoining kitchen is well-equipped with an induction hob, electric oven, fridge/freezer, and also boasts a dishwasher and washer/dryer to keep the place running smoothly. There's also a breakfast-bar peninsula and two stools for more casual dining. Gather around the central six-person dining table for meals together. Head upstairs to the light-filled landing, where a vaulted ceiling and dual skylight windows enhance the fresh, open feel of the property. There are three inviting bedrooms: a king-size room, with an en-suite shower room, a restful double bedroom and a playful, themed children’s bunk room with extra-wide beds, a small table and chairs and a fitted wardrobe. The modern family bathroom has a shower over the bath.

Outside, the sunny south-facing decked patio has seating for four and a charcoal BBQ, so afternoons in the sunshine are all yours. Private parking for one car is available directly beside the property, with additional cars to be parked in the main car park.
