The old creamery, located in a separate building next to the main house, has been converted into an annexe with an additional two en-suite bedrooms, and still has the exposed stone walls and floors!

Park Farmhouse is located on the coast road in the heart of the charming historic village of Chideock with a pub and restaurant a couple of doors away. Julia Bradbury’s ‘Best Walks With A View’ includes a walk which encircles Park Farmhouse. A popular farm shop is about a mile away with outside seating with glorious views over the National Trust land and the famous Golden Cap which is the highest point on the south coast!

Steeped in history, Chideock was recorded in the Domesday Book as Cidihoc. In 1379-80, John de Chideock, a manorial lord, built Chideock Castle, just north of the village. During the Middle Ages, ownership passed to the Catholic Arundell family, who used it to provide refuge for priests and loyal followers during subsequent persecution. In 1802 the Arundells were succeeded by the Weld family of Lulworth Castle who in 1810, built Chideock Manor. Park Farmhouse once served the occupants of the manor for many years with cream from the creamery.

The stunning and dramatic Jurassic Coast is a World Heritage Site covering 96 miles of coastline and is less than a mile away at Seatown. It is also known for its fossil hunting. The beaches of West Bay and Lyme Regis have a traditional feel with gift shops, tea rooms, inns and restaurants. Lyme Regis with The Cobb and harbour was the setting for the filming of The French Lieutenant’s Woman. More recently, Jane Austen’s ‘Persuasion’ and Thomas Hardy’s ‘Far from The Madding Crowd’ were both filmed here. Renowned TV chef Mark Hix has an Oyster and Fish House in Lyme Regis. There are other pretty villages such as Beer and Branscombe within easy reach or you may wish to visit the numerous stately homes and gardens in the area. You can also discover Dorset’s sandy bays, rugged hill top walks and tiny coves. Fishing is available locally. Beach ¾ mile. Shop 240 yards, pub and restaurant 50 yards.

The Farmhouse worked exceptionally well for our large family group, one of whom was celebrating her 90th birthday over the weekend. So much space and the added benefits of the heated, enclosed pool and the table tennis room. More than adequate kitchen equipment to cater for the large group.

Property felt very homely and well decorated for our Christmas stay, with space for a ‘quiet’ room as well as children’s tv room. The children loved the pool and our dog loved the garden! Only issue was the bunk bed room which was not suitable for our little ones owing to the ladder up to the next room, but we managed to get round this. West bay and good pubs within walking distance. 21/12/19-28/12/19

Amazing house so many bedrooms, I loved the creamery. The Christmas tree was much appreciated for opening presents by. The children loved the pool, also all of the different living rooms, one for tv one for x-box and an adults room with no tv and the Christmas tree. There are two pubs in walking distance, we had Sunday lunch in the clock which was really good. Would stay again.
