A charming character cottage with Abbey view
Bensly Cottage es una propiedad de carácter bonita y recientemente renovada en medio de la hermosa ciudad de Sherborne. Tiene vistas a la magnífica Abadía y está a solo unos minutos a pie del centro de la ciudad, con sus pubs, restaurantes, delicatessen y salones de té. También se puede llegar a los dos castillos a pie, y desde la cabaña se pueden realizar agradables paseos por el campo. Hay muchos sitios históricos, pubs de campo y hermosos paisajes para visitar en los alrededores. Sherborne ofrece tiendas, eventos culturales, mercados y música, y, por supuesto, sus famosas escuelas.
La cabaña es cómoda y bien equipada. La planta baja consta de una sala de estar con estufa de leña, amueblada con un cómodo sofá de 3 plazas y un sillón. Hay televisión (con canales y aplicaciones de acceso gratuito a Internet) y wifi gratuito; un reproductor de DVD con una selección de películas y una estantería con muchos libros para leer. También hay una carpeta de bienvenida con mapas e información sobre atracciones locales.
Desde la sala de estar hay una cocina fresca y atractiva de estilo Shaker con lavadora-secadora, lavavajillas, microondas, horno con placa eléctrica y nevera-congelador grande, además de todos los utensilios. Un área de comedor en la parte trasera se encuentra cuatro, con acceso a un pequeño patio para tomar bebidas al aire libre.
Arriba hay dos habitaciones cómodas, una habitación doble y una habitación más pequeña con literas. Hay un baño moderno con bañera con ducha, lavabo y WC. Hay calefacción central en todo. Se proporcionan ropa de cama, toallas y alfombra de baño.
La cabaña se encuentra a siete minutos a pie de la estación de tren (línea directa desde London Waterloo) y Sainsbury's, y a diez minutos a pie de Waitrose. Hay un estacionamiento en la calle enfrente, dependiendo de la disponibilidad, y dos aparcamientos de larga estancia a poca distancia. El propietario puede dirigirlo a un estacionamiento conveniente cercano a pedido.
Un centro de ocio cercano ofrece una piscina cubierta, gimnasio y clases de fitness. La ciudad tiene una gama de tiendas de regalos, tiendas de antigüedades y de recuperación, galerías, salones de belleza y tiendas de ropa. Además de salones de té, cafeterías y delicatessen, la ciudad tiene una variedad de lugares para comer, incluyendo una pizzaria, un restaurante italiano de platos pequeños y una gelatoria. Cene con estilo The Green o The Eastbury, ambos cortos paseos desde la cabaña. Disfrute de cervezas tradicionales y comida de pub en Digby Tap. Una fantástica tienda de pescado y papas fritas está abierta por las noches y está a la vuelta de la esquina.
Para los visitantes de las escuelas locales, puede ser interesante saber que la cabaña está muy cerca de Sherborne Prep, Sherborne School y sus pensiones, Sherborne Girls School y Sherborne International. Leweston Girls School está a cinco minutos en automóvil, y hay un servicio de taxi disponible en la ciudad.
La cabaña lleva el nombre de W. J Bensly, un maestro de la Escuela Sherborne a principios del siglo XX, que una vez fue su dueño. Fue tutor de Alan Turing, y bien conocido y amado como un gentil excéntrico, que una vez jugó cricket contra Arthur Conan Doyle y ganó medallas por valentía en la Primera Guerra Mundial.

I recently enjoyed a fabulous mother-daughter trip, made perfect by our stay at Kirsty's wonderful and cosy Bensly Cottage. The cottage is beautifully situated in the very pretty town of Sherborne, with everything you need within easy walking distance.
The cottage itself was immaculate and had all the amenities required for a comfortable stay. It truly felt like a home away from home. A big shout out to our host, Kirsty, for being incredibly helpful and attentive. Nothing was too much trouble for her, from offering excellent recommendations, directions, to allowing us to drop our luggage off early and checking in to ensure we were settled in comfortably.
I definitely recommend Bensly Cottage and would return to stay on my next visit to Sherborne.

Very clean and well equipped cottage in a convenient location for the town centre and all amenities . We thoroughly enjoyed our stay . The host has everything very well organised including arrangements for collecting the key from a key safe . Tea and coffee were provided and all the essentials including washing up liquid , liquid hand soap and boxes of tissues were waiting for us at the property . The host even popped in on our first evening to ensure we had everything we needed which was a nice touch . We will be back 😁😁

What a lovely place to stay in Sherborne. Beautifully clean, has everything you could need for your stay.
The location is great, walkable to anywhere in town and the added bonus of having the station here for day trips.

This is a lovely little cottage in a great position in the centre of Sherborne. The Abbey at the centre of the town is about three minutes walk away. Sherborne is a pretty, interesting town with loads of history and well served with all facilities. The cottage is small but warm and well equipped and was fine for the two of us. Kirsty was on hand and responded very quickly when we contacted her. Apart from on one occasion, when we had to park about seven minutes' walk away, we were always able to park within about 200m of the property.

This is such a wonderful cottage in the heart of Sherborne. It is beautifully clean and has absolutely everything you might need during your stay. It was so cosy during a very wet and windy stay in Sherborne. All the pubs, shops and restaurants are within easy walking distance. The beautiful Abbey is just round the corner. The station is an easy walk. The host is very communicative and the check in and out process was very easy. I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone wanting to stay in Sherborne.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and first visit to Sherborne.
The property is ideally located close to all the amentities and attractions.
We had excellent communications with the owner, providing us with all the information we needed.
I think that the property is probably in need a little refresh, but other than that it had everything we needed. Would definately stay there again

We loved Bensly Cottage. It's a comfy, cosy piece of Sherbourne's history with everything you need for a relaxing break. There are lots of interesting local shops and it's a perfect base for exploring the amazing Jurassic coast and the gorgeous Dorset countryside.

We arrived rather late, we needed a little extra time to access the property as we had been out of reach all day hiking. The host was most gracious in working through this and the place is perfect, well appointed and detailed above the norm. we were very comfortable and surprised at how intriguing Sherborne is as we'd picked it for its proximity to surrounding sites.

We had a lovely stay in the property, its very clean and cosy. Took the recommendation of the owner and ate in The Plume of Feathers one evening, which was absolutely gorgeous. Owner was very helpful, even sending her daughter with extra bedding, as i had not realised we needed to let her know we were using both rooms.
The property is so clean and comfortable, lovely touches such as having coffee and tea available.

Really pleased with the whole experience from booking and checking in, to check out. Parking was a little bit of a lottery if no on street spaces. But car park not too far away.

Really close to town but tucked away this charming cottage was deceptively spacious inside. Cosy with log burner if chilly and small outside patio space it was great to return to after a short walking break in and around the beautiful town of Sherborne.

This is the second time we've stayed at this property. It's cozy and convenient to getting around town, close to stores, groceries and the train. We'll stay here again.

We spent 3 weeks here visiting the area and using the cottage as a base for travels around the UK and Paris. The train station is a 5 minute walk from the cottage with hourly service to London. From there we jumped onto the Eurostar for Paris and another time a train to Edinburgh. Worked perfectly.
The cottage is very cozy. Kirsty, our host was super helpful giving us all kinds of local suggestions. We visited 7 of the 9 Sherborne pubs and many of the local restaurants. Our favorite on our last night was the Clockspire, about 3 miles out of town, but definitely worth it - a fabulous experience.

The property was clean and well maintained. It was also well equipped.
Kirsty was intuitive with her messaging.
The only thing worth a mention is that there is no parking at the property itself. However, the instructions given by Kirsty for free parking nearby was spot on.
I would definitely recommend and stay here again.

Very happy indeed with accommodation and location to town, which was right on our doorstep. Being a character cottage, it was right on the edge of the pavement and road and having a dog with me, I had to remember to use a fixed lead when going in and out of the cottage in case in his exuberance he rushed out of the front door straight into the traffic. The traffic was noisy when in the lounge, but we became accustomed. The bedroom had secondary glazing, so noise there wasn’t an issue. The cottage was beautifully clean with very nice decor, exactly as in the photos and I felt very much at home there thank you Kirsty.

The property was lovely for a short break away. It was very clean and was in a perfect location, on the doorstep of Sherborne. The kitchen was really well equipped which was great as we ate in a few times. The bedrooms were lovely and the beds very cosy, lovely smelling linen. Defintely could have done with a full-length mirror however (my only niggle) but apart from that it was a lovely little property and we had a super stay. Highly recommend.
