A charming detached, stone-built cottage nestling in the grounds of the owner’s non-working farm, just half a mile from the pretty town of Shaftesbury, and surrounded by fields. Converted to a high standard, this cosy property offers well decorated and furnished ground floor accommodation, including a sunny sitting room with dining area offering unsurpassed views down Blackmoor Vale toward Poole and the coast.
Beyond the farm, Shaftesbury itself offers a wealth of interest: the town is renowned for its historic charm, especially the iconic Gold Hill which featured in the Hovis advert.
If you’re a keen walker or birdwatcher, then the surrounding countryside of Dorset is perfect for you. Explore the spectacular chalk hills of Fontmell and Melbury Downs or the carved white horses of the rolling Wiltshire downs.
