Accommodation details

Within a mile of the picturesque Purbeck village of Corfe Castle, this relaxing property makes a lovely holiday getaway for a family or a couple exploring the Jurassic Coast and the unspoilt Dorset countryside. Offering ample space for up to four guests, this bright, spacious and colourful property is an idyllic base for keen walkers and cyclists, and is within easy reach of some stunning sandy beaches.

A few steps lead up to the house where you will find a delightful lounge/diner with wooden floor and feature fireplace.

There's also a stylishly designed kitchen which is a pleasure to cook in. A short flight of stairs leads up to the first-floor bedrooms: a charming twin room with views towards the hills, and a stylish king-size room from which you may catch a glimpse of a distant steam train. The pretty back garden is enclosed and features a lawn and garden furniture, making it a lovely spot for children to play and for you to enjoy al fresco meals.
