The Bothy At Minterne House is a stunning 3-bedroom semi-detached property in Minterne Magna, Dorset. This characterful cottage sits within a tranquil walled garden on the historic Minterne Estate. You'll have free daily access to the magnificent Minterne Gardens - perfect for morning strolls before the public arrives. The gardens are spectacular in spring when daffodils, bluebells and ornamental cherries burst into life.
Set in a picturesque Himalayan valley surrounded by rolling Dorset countryside, this location is truly special. The nearby village of Cerne Abbas (2 miles away) is famous for its rather well-endowed hillside giant - talk about a big attraction!
