Built in 1849 and lovingly restored in 2009, it retains original character while offering all the modern comforts of a cosy countryside getaway. Accessed via a characterful external spiral staircase, this unique and slightly more private loft space is ideal for couples, friends, or small families looking to relax and unwind.

With two en-suite bedrooms, The Hayloft sleeps up to four guests and offers everything you need for a comfortable stay. Crisp white linen and fluffy bath sheets provide a comfortable touch, and with unlimited complimentary Wi-Fi, you can stay as connected or unplugged as you like. The open plan living area is a welcoming space to rest and recharge after exploring Dorset. The estate offers fantastic shared amenities. Enjoy a swim in the indoor heated pool (communal and private sessions available), challenge your group to a friendly game of snooker or badminton in the games room, or simply relax by one of the three peaceful coarse fishing lakes. There’s also a lovely outdoor play area for children to enjoy.

When you’re ready to explore, you’re perfectly placed to discover Dorset’s highlights. Visit the stunning Jurassic Coast with scenic walks at Durdle Door, Lulworth Cove, and Golden Cap, or enjoy a day at the beach in Weymouth or Lyme Regis. Head to Sherborne for historic castles and a beautiful abbey, or explore the ruins of Corfe Castle. Monkey World and The Tank Museum also offer fantastic days out for families.

Whether you’re after lazy countryside days or packed itineraries of adventure, The Hayloft is a unique, peaceful base to enjoy the very best of Dorset. Beach 17 minutes.
