You can walk straight from the door (the footpath starts 100yrds down the road) across the hills more or less through the set of Far From the Madding Crowd. The cottage is in the grounds of Wantsley Farm, a lovely family farmhouse which has 17 acres of rolling hills and woodland. It has its own patio seating area, and parking space for 2 cars. The cottage has a kingsize bed in the master bedroom, complete with roll-top bath, and 2 single beds in the other, with a pull out bed for a 5th person. There is a shower room with loo and a separate downstairs loo. Oak floors throughout, exposed beams, a wood-burner stove and French windows make the cottage light and airy in the summer months and delightfully cosy in the winter. There is a patio with table and chairs just outside the sitting room. Due to the close proximity of a thatched roof I'm afraid it's no BBQ's. Guest Access: Guests have access to the farms fields, streams, the woodland and can walk (100yds down the road to the footpath) over the hill to the local pub in nearby Stoke Abbott. Spare linen will be in the cottage, maid service will be weekly. Interaction with Guests. Guests can feel welcome to drop in with requests or for local advice, but their privacy is respected in every way. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Massage ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Wood stove ### Entertainment - DVD player - Smart TV - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In a village - Near the bay - Near the marina - Near the sea ### Things to do - Water park - Cycling nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Sailing nearby - Snorkelling nearby - Swimming nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/46000000/45600000/45590200/45590183/5d0f9d1b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Delightful country cottage.

Granted we stayed in February but I'd take some slippers next time as the floor is cold but the water was hot, shower was great and bed was very comfy. No communication with hosts whilst we were there but we didn't intitiate as we were out all day but I'm sure they'd be quick to respond to any issues as communication prior to this was very easy. Overall I would recommend. ##### Sarah L.

Everything was very comfortable and the main bedroom is superb. We all enjoyed watching the very sociable chickens and enjoyed their eggs. We also had a visit from ‘Toast’ the farmhouse dog who was extremely sweet and well behaved and came up to say hello ((now my boys want a dog like him…) My boys really enjoyed the land around the cottage and especially the rope swing which they had great fun on. The cottage is very well placed for Bridport, Beaminster west bay and Lyme Regis. We also went to Weymouth a couple of times which is approx 45mins away. In all we had a super stay.

Communication with Charlotte was fantastic, easy instructions in the manual on how everything worked. The cottage is cosy and had everything we needed. Surroundings are great and the kids had so much fun on the rope swings and zip wire. Location was good, the local village is lovely. We ventured into Lyme Regis, West Bay, Golden Cap and lulworth. Coming back from chilly beach days to the roll top bath and wood burner in the cottage was super nice. None of us wanted to leave, So we will definitely be returning! ##### Donna D.

Peaceful, relaxing, comfortable, spacious. This delightful cottage offered everything and more for our 2 week stay. After being out most days,either hiking or discovering the environs, it was our haven to return to. Blissfully quiet, field views & chickens to keep you amused in the next field. Tim greeted us with fresh eggs and home made jam, he and Charlotte live in the farm house (not attached) & each other's privacy was respected, however, they were available to deal with any queries, which we didn't have. Charlotte had left some wonderful recommendations in the manual. We were sad to leave & look forward to returning. ##### Kathy W.

We especially loved the birdsong and the sense of nature at our doorstep. It’s in a great location, within in the Dorset AONB, with beautiful countryside and walks on its doorstep. Sea is 21 mins away and Beaminster down the road has lots to offer, including two good eateries. Very good hosts: Tim was very good at dealing promptly with any issues that arose, especially with timings at crucial junctures, and was very helpful and flexible when we needed it. Our only caveat is the concealed exit on to a sharp bend when you need to cross the road to the right when traffic is coming down the hill on the left at speed and out of sight. The mirror provided opposite the entrance needs to be replaced and the warning signs improved. ##### John G. Stayed 12 nights in May 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Joseph H. 2 Jun 2023 Liked: Check-in Disliked: Communication, location #### Abandoned Nice barn like cottage. Lounge very dark. Sofa and armchair very uncomfortable. We were told the owners were away until Tuesday. When they got home they not once came to our cottage to welcome us. 1st time we have ever not had a pint of milk in the fridge or welcome pot of jam or cake on arrival. Felt very isolated and unfriendly. The walk suggested in the brochure they provided was overgrown and impassable. We all got stung by stinging nettles as they were so high. The oven took ages to heat up. ##### Joseph H.
