Large enclosed garden with garden furniture. Private parking for 3 cars. Fishing on-site (free of charge). No smoking. Please note: There is a fenced lake in the grounds, 100 yards away. . Situated on a 300-acre working sheep and beef farm in the beautiful surroundings of the north west Dorset countryside, and only 5 miles south of the delightful abbey town of Sherborne, these three holiday homes offer a great location to get away from it all. The Farmhouse (UKC2911), which sleeps up to twelve guests, and the smaller wing of the property, Churchill Cottage (ref DQR), which sleeps six guests, have an interconnecting door allowing for both to be booked together (sleeping 18 guests) or independently.

The Farmhouse and Churchill Cottage have interesting historical connections, having once been owned by John Churchill, the Duke of Marlborough and the highwayman John Clavell respectively. The Farmhouse offers its own games room with a pool table, and a dining area seating 18. The properties also have use of the coarse fishing lake, 100 yards away.

The properties are ideal for a family or groups who might wish to get away from it all, and their location lends itself for some fine country walking and cycling. Visit Sherborne with its abbey, castle, fine character shops, cafés and inns. Within easy driving there are also many historic houses, such as Montacute House and Gardens and Stourhead House and Gardens to name just two. For family outings Yeovilton Fleet Air Arm Museum and the Haynes Motor Museum, with its fascinating classical car collection, are worth a visit, and slightly further afield, the ever popular Longleat House and Safari Park is great for a day out.

The south coast resorts of Weymouth, West Bay and Lyme Regis, on the famous World Heritage Jurassic Coast, beckon, with plenty of water activities to enjoy, or going inland to south Somerset, one can take in the Clarks Village Outlet, Glastonbury Tor and the very popular Roman city of Bath with its many tourist attractions. Nearby, visit Cerne Abbas, famed for its chalk giant on the hillside, and just beyond is Dorchester, the county town with its many museums. Shop, pub and restaurant 3 miles.
Churchill Cottage (ref DQR) and The Farmhouse (ref UKC2911) can be booked together to accommodate up to 18 guests.

We have just spent a fantastic few days at Churchill cottage. The cottage us much bigger than expected with everything you need for a comfy stay. Rachel and her family are so welcoming and even gave us the chance to help feed the lambs. The brownies on arrival were very tasty and a lovely gift. We hope to return soon

A great host who kept bringing us wood for the fire, which was a nice change and added character to the cottage. Even though the wi-fi and phone signal was hit and miss, this was sometimes a bonus for piece and quiet. The cottage was superb and would be recommended.

We would highly recommend this property. Rachel was extremely friendly and welcoming. She also took time to take any children or adults around the farm spending time with them explaining how the farm was run. If you want a holiday to rest and relax but have places of interest to visit we would suggest you book this cottage. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Lovely cottage especially if yr after peace and quiet. Rachel was more than accommodating nothing was too much trouble. She gave us a tour of the farm and even allowed us to buy some of her steaks which were amazing. You do have to drive 10/15 minutes to the nearest shop but that wasn't an issue Will definitely be going back Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
