After exploring Dorset, cross the threshold into the entrance hallway where a crackling woodburning stove creates a homely ambience that is continued in the spacious living room; unwind here and snuggle up with loved ones on the plush, blue sofa while the TV plays in the background. The designated chef will feel at home in the fully-equipped kitchen furnished with a range cooker, here they can rustle up tasty meals for the whole group that can be enjoyed in the large dining room with seating for everyone. Reminisce on memories created or catch up with loved ones who you don’t see often before stepping outside where the wrap-around terrace provides the perfect place for watching the sun set over the countryside.
