Cottage to rent with a hot tub in Sherborne (9.5mls SE)

Accommodation details

Invite friends and family away for a rural retreat with and call this converted barn home for a while. Sitting in a wildflower meadow, the wood-fired hot tub is a real treat and the perfect way to end your days. Brilliantly open plan, the living space means you can enjoy quality time together and the wood burner helps create a cosy, welcoming atmosphere.

Sleeping six guests over three bedrooms, each with an en-suite, whisk family and friends away for a break to remember. Step inside and admire the attention to detail as you find yourself in the inviting living space. Here, the kitchen, lounge and diner fit together perfectly and create a lovely hub of the home in which to read books, watch TV and plan adventures.

Sit beneath the vaulted ceiling or give the designated chef a hand and cook up a storm in the kitchen at the far end. After a toast to the cook, sit at the table and enjoy a communal dinnertime, or if the weather allows plate up al fresco and dine in the last of the day’s sun. The games room is a great place to burn off energy before soaking in the hot tub to unwind, reach the bubbling tub by following a magical raised walkway through the trees and wildflowers.

Three bedrooms offer calming spaces to get tucked up under the covers and all three are treated to en-suites so there’s no need to queue to freshen up in the mornings. Head straight from your door to explore, with no need to hop in the car. Venture towards the village of Hazelbury Bryan (1.5 miles) and reward your stroll with a pub meal or a pint.

10 miles away, the historic town of Sherborne has a pair of castles and an abbey to visit and is well worth the short trip. For a beach day filled with fish and chips, sandcastles and splashing in the sea, travel 24 miles south to the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site and the bustling seaside resort of Weymouth.
