Enjoy the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure with family or friends at this stylish Scandinavian-inspired cottage in the Dorset countryside. Sleeping eight guests, it sits within a tranquil holiday village among freshwater lakes and a nature reserve, just 6 miles from Dorchester. While there’s plenty to keep you occupied on-site, the property is also well-placed for exploring the spectacular Jurassic Coast. Lulworth Cove, only 10 miles away, is a photogenic spot for capturing holiday memories, while Weymouth Beach (10 miles) offers traditional seaside fun. For a complete change of scene, The Tank Museum at Bovington (6.5 miles) has an impressive collection of military vehicles and interactive exhibits.

Step into an immaculate open-plan ground floor, featuring a sparkling kitchen with modern integrated appliances for preparing meals at your leisure. The space flows naturally into a dining area with seating for eight for enjoying get-togethers after days exploring Dorset. Moving through to the lounge area, a wood burner and a TV invite you to spend relaxed evenings resting on the cosy sofas. When you’re ready for sleep, take the stairs up to the first floor to the four bedrooms, all decorated in calming neutral tones to maximise comfort. Two double rooms open onto a private balcony, perfect for sipping a morning coffee while taking in the countryside views. There is also a further double bedroom and finally a bunk bedroom that younger guests will adore.

The garden features patio furniture for al fresco dining and watching the sun go down while the little ones play on the lawn. A gravelled driveway leads to the back entrance, providing convenient access to the cottage and private parking for one car. The holiday park caters for all ages, with a wealth of shared amenities to enjoy, including a spa, lakeside restaurant, nature trails, crafting, and water sports such as kayaking and paddleboarding.
