About this property

Kitchen/dining room: Electric Oven, Electric Hob, Microwave, Fridge, Freezer, Dishwasher
Bedroom: Zip And Link Kingsize Bed (2 x Singles On Request), Freeview TV

Travel cot and highchair available on request. Welcome pack. Enclosed garden with garden furniture. Bike store. Private parking for 1 car. No smoking.. The loft offers a modern twist on this traditional barn conversion and is the perfect space for a couple looking for a cosy holiday home in a peaceful location, yet perfectly located to explore this stunning part of Dorset. The Loft makes the most of the stunning rural property with its upside down accommodation, the sitting room on the first floor benefits from far reaching rural views. The bedroom and bathroom are located on the ground floor. The Loft is the perfect rural escape for a long weekend, but is also perfectly located for a longer stay. Peacefully located this holiday home is the perfect tonic to our busy lives and you may wish to simply relax, however, there is plenty of exploring on the doorstep, with the charming town of Sherborne just a few miles away with its stunning Abbey, independent shops and restaurants, well worth a visit or head to the coast and explore the stunning Jurassic coastline, less than an hour away.

The Loft was the perfect place to stay for us. It is on a farm so is off a country lane but there were no problems getting to and from it. The whole place is well decorated, well equipped and a great place to stay while investigating the area. Sarah is very friendly and kindly left us some eggs and a jug of milk in the fridge. The bed is very comfortable and the bathroom and shower good. The kitchen is clean and well equipped and the living room (upstairs) is light, warm and a great space to relax in. I'm sure we will be returning in the not-too-distant future.

Lovely little hideaway, perfect for a couple to get away from it all.
Lovely little hideaway, perfect for a couple to get away from it all. Loved seeing the horses in the field and admiring the view.
