A propos de ce cottagerental
A charming character cottage with Abbey view
Bensly Cottage est une jolie propriété de caractère récemment rénovée au milieu de la belle ville de Sherborne. Il offre une vue sur la magnifique abbaye et se trouve à seulement quelques minutes à pied du centre-ville, avec ses pubs, restaurants, épiceries fines et salons de thé. Les deux châteaux sont également accessibles à pied, et de délicieuses promenades à la campagne sont facilement entreprises depuis le chalet. Il y a de nombreux sites historiques, des pubs de campagne et une belle campagne à visiter dans les environs. Sherborne propose des boutiques, des événements culturels, des marchés et de la musique, et, bien sûr, ses célèbres écoles.
Le chalet est confortable et bien équipé. Le rez-de-chaussée se compose d'un salon avec poêle à bois, meublé d'un confortable canapé 3 places et d'un fauteuil. Il y a la télévision (avec chaînes et applications Internet gratuites) et le wifi gratuit; un lecteur DVD avec une sélection de films et une bibliothèque avec beaucoup de livres à lire. Il y a aussi un dossier de bienvenue avec des cartes et des informations sur les attractions locales.
Depuis le salon, une cuisine fraîche et attrayante de style Shaker avec lave-linge séchant, lave-vaisselle, micro-ondes, four avec plaques électriques et grand réfrigérateur-congélateur, ainsi que tous les ustensiles. Une salle à manger à l'arrière se trouve quatre, avec accès à une petite cour pour des boissons en plein air.
A l'étage, deux chambres confortables, une double et une plus petite avec lits superposés. Il y a une salle de bain moderne avec baignoire, douche, lavabo et WC. Il y a du chauffage central partout. Le linge de lit, les serviettes et le tapis de bain sont fournis.
Le chalet est à sept minutes à pied de la gare (ligne directe de Londres Waterloo) et de Sainsbury's, et à dix minutes à pied de Waitrose. Il y a un parking dans la rue en face, selon la disponibilité, et deux parkings longue durée à une courte distance. Le propriétaire peut vous diriger vers un parking pratique à proximité sur demande.
Un centre de loisirs à proximité propose une piscine intérieure, une salle de sport et des cours de fitness. La ville possède une gamme de boutiques de cadeaux, d'antiquaires et de restauration, des galeries, des salons de beauté et des magasins de vêtements. Outre les salons de thé, les cafés et les épiceries fines, la ville dispose d'une variété d'endroits pour manger, y compris une pizzaria, un petit restaurant italien et une gelatoria. Dînez dans le style The Green ou The Eastbury, tous deux à quelques pas du chalet. Dégustez des bières traditionnelles et des plats de pub au Digby Tap. Un fantastique magasin de poisson et frites est ouvert le soir et n'est qu'au coin de la rue.
Pour les visiteurs des écoles locales, il peut être intéressant de savoir que le chalet est à proximité de Sherborne Prep, de Sherborne School et de ses internats, de Sherborne Girls School et de Sherborne International. Leweston Girls School est à cinq minutes en voiture, et un service de taxi est disponible dans la ville.
Le chalet porte le nom de W. J Bensly, un maître de l'école Sherborne au début du 20e siècle, qui en était propriétaire. Il était un tuteur d'Alan Turing, bien connu et aimé comme un excentrique doux, qui a joué au cricket contre Arthur Conan Doyle et a remporté des médailles pour sa bravoure pendant la Première Guerre mondiale.

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.

I loved staying in this cottage in Sherborne. Wonderful location in the Abbey town. Would recommend to anyone.

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.
