Nestled high on the hillside overlooking the majestic Corfe Castle, this charming, Grade II-listed, 18th-century cottage is a haven of tranquillity, perfect for families and groups of friends craving a peaceful escape - Dorset’s enchanting coast and countryside await discovery.
Beneath the traditional stone exterior, the spacious lounge/diner, with its exposed ceiling beams and roaring wood burner, boasts a true warmth, setting the scene for the ultimate cosy night of slumber and dining at the end of a busy day. The stylish, adjoining kitchen shares the same contemporary, cottage-style aesthetic as the rest of the ground floor, whilst the light and bright second lounge on the first floor maximises wonderful views across the local landscape from the large set of patio doors. On the first floor, catch a glimpse of Poole Harbour from the characterful, king-size bedroom or lose yourself in views over the garden from the second king-size bedroom and adjoining bunk bedroom. With its charming sloping beamed ceiling, the king-size bedroom on the second floor with an en-suite shower room is a haven of tranquillity. Completing the interior is a well-appointed family bathroom. Outside, dine alfresco on the sheltered patio, surrounded by floral borders, as children let off some steam on the lawn.
Nestled halfway between Wareham and Swanage on the Isle of Purbeck, the charming village of Corfe seems untouched by time, boasting a maze of quaint streets lined with period cottages, tea rooms and traditional pubs. Keen outdoor explorers can uncover the rich heritage of the local area by discovering the National Trust’s Corfe Castle (2 miles) - the iconic royal castle ruins established by William the Conqueror. Journeying through breathtaking countryside with views to the sea beyond, board the Swanage Heritage Railway to Swanage (5 miles) to enjoy scenic walks around Durlston Country Park and Nature Reserve (6 miles), and cliff-top trails along the South West Coast Path.
