Explore the unrivalled beauty of rural Somerset and nearby Dorset with a stay at this bright and breezy annexe surrounded by countryside views. Sleeping up to two guests in one restful bedroom, this is the perfect base for couples and solo travellers planning days of walking, cycling, and discovering the region’s attractions. The host village of Rimpton charms, while the livelier market towns of Sherborne and Yeovil both await within 6.5 miles. Both towns offer a good choice of local boutiques, pubs, and restaurants, plus ancient architecture and industries that hint at the area’s rich history. Popular attractions close to home include the Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm Museum, Haynes Motor Museum, and Lytes Cary Manor (all within 8 miles). For days surrounded by nature, the property is positioned between the Dorset National Landscape, the Cranborne Chase National Landscape, and the dramatic Mendip Hills (all within 22 miles).
Well-appointed with spacious rooms, large windows, and airy skylights, this single-storey property is truly appealing. Make your way inside to find the open-plan living space, combining a lounge, kitchen, and diner. With an L-shaped layout, the lounge is tucked into one corner, complete with a loveseat, a Smart TV, and a wood burner-effect electric fire – perfect for cosy movie nights. The whitewashed kitchen boasts everything you need for cooking up holiday feasts, which can be enjoyed at the breakfast bar or around the traditional wooden dining table. At the end of each memorable day away, retire to the restful double bedroom before starting the next day with a soak in the wet room's large walk-in shower. A separate WC provides added convenience.
When the sun shines, spill out into the generous garden, where ample lawn space, a furnished patio, and countryside views invite relaxation and al fresco food and drink. The garden is enclosed for your dogs to roam safely, while a bubbling hot tub invites you to soak weary walking muscles long into the night. Completing the property is private parking for two cars, making your arrivals and day trips easy.
