About this cottage rental
Surrounded by open countryside within the scattered village of Hilfield, this detached, character cottage is ideally situated for taking in the local sights, with Sherborne Abbey, Ham Hill, The Cerne Abbas Giant and West Bay all within easy reach. Set beneath the Dorset Downs there are many scenic walking and cycling routes that run directly from the property, taking in the breath-taking views on offer in this picturesque area. Ideally placed for touring Dorset and Somerset there are a selection of nearby towns to explore, such as Sherborne with its weekly market, Bridport, with its popular vintage shops and Yeovil, ideal for an afternoon spent browsing. The beautiful beaches at Lyme Regis and Charmouth are also accessible by car from here.
A paved path leads you into the property from the lane, where you are met by a welcoming entrance hall leading into the lounge, which has an open fire, TV and DVD, making it the perfect spot for relaxing after a country walk. Moving on from here is the open-plan kitchen/diner, which has a wood burner. This spacious room is the ideal spot for a relaxed family meal and is well-equipped with an electric oven and hob, washing machine and a useful pantry houses a fridge, freezer and tumble dryer. Off of the kitchen is a contemporary bathroom with shower over bath and WC. Heading back into the kitchen, the cottage style stairs take you up to the first floor, which offers two double bedrooms and a cosy bunk bedroom.
Venturing outside from the front door you will find a large fully enclosed lawn area wrapping around the cottage with garden furniture, a charcoal BBQ and a hammock to snooze the afternoon away. Extending into a beautiful orchard, this rustic setting is further enhanced by a shepherd’s hut with a wood burner, ideal for an afternoon nap, making it the perfect spot to cosy up when the cool evening air draws in. Stepping stones lead you through the lawn from the front door to a layby opposite the Cottage, big enough for 2 cars to park.
