3 Bed Cottage in Whitchurch Canonicorum

About this property

Peacefully positioned in the picturesque village of Whitchurch Canonicorum lies this thoughtfully converted property, boasting spectacular countryside and farmland views. Situated on a working farm in the beautiful Marshwood Vale, an abundance of walks are available for you to explore, right from your front door. This rural getaway provides an idyllic family retreat to discover Dorset and its world-famous Jurassic Coast.

This spacious and stylish barn is arranged on one level, blending original features with modern-day furnishings and fittings. Stepping inside the property, the large open-plan living area is filled with light and provides the perfect space for the whole family to relax and socialise in. High ceilings and exposed wooden beams give a rustic atmosphere where you can sit as a family around the cosy wood burner, playing games and drinking hot chocolate. Then retire to one of the three peaceful bedrooms for some rest and relaxation, in preparation for your next adventures. French doors lead out onto a sunny patio in the enclosed garden, an ideal spot for your morning coffee before the children wake up!

Centrally positioned between coast and country, this is a great location to be based to discover some of the best that Dorset has to offer. West Bay (7 miles), known as the Golden Gateway to the Jurassic Coast, is a vibrant and lively fishing village boasting a golden sandy beach, dramatic cliff tops, a pretty harbour and activities for all ages including fishing, cycling, diving, kayaking and paddle boarding. Just 2.5 miles the attractive seaside village of Charmouth is home to a world-renowned beach, famous for its abundance of fossils. With an old world charm this delightful village has an array of traditional amenities where you can pick up a locally made gift to remind you of your stay.
