Fountain Cottage is a small but very comfortable one bedroom cottage attached to an old Rectory, where the Owner of the property lives. It is set in 3 acres of grounds in the heart of the village of Radipole and within a Conservation Area which is set on the road which runs through the village.
The cottage has accommodation all on one floor with a sitting room with a dining area, and a woodburning stove allowing you to settle and watch the flames whilst relaxing on a winters evening. Rustle up a cooked breakfast in the kitchen and sit and enjoy with a nice pot of tea on the kitchen breakfast table for two. The property has one king-sized bedroom and a bathroom with a luxurious corner bath. On a summer evening you can enjoy sitting and relaxing in the garden, watching the evening sun go down.
The lovely Wey Valley Walks pass right by the back gate at the old stone bridge across the trout river, and the popular Radipole Lake RSPB bird sanctuary is just a few minutes away. In the village, there is a pretty medieval church which is well worth a visit, nestled neatly next to the manor house. The cottage has its own garden with a barbecue, and there is private car parking at the end of the drive to the cottage. In the nearby town of Weymouth you will find a wide sandy beach, many shops, a pretty harbour, lots of restaurants, coffee shops, tea rooms. If you feel like a stroll, you can walk into town passing along the shore of the big lake, through the attractive memorial gardens and tennis courts and on past the Swannery. If you fancy a drive the nearby coastal road which runs from Weymouth along to West Bay is a real treat, and offers lots of opportunities for stops in traditional Dorset villages along the way.
A cosy stone cottage for two this is the ideal place to spend quality time together, walking and exploring the local area.
