Escape to the Dorset countryside with a stay at this beautiful Grade II-listed 18th-century cottage, set within a pretty terrace in the village of Kingston. Perched in the hills above Corfe Castle, this characterful retreat is ideally placed for exploring one of the county's most scenic corners.
Step inside a warm, welcoming interior blending period charm with modern comfort. The entrance porch provides handy storage for coats, leading through to a living/dining room where exposed beams, a wood burner, and plush seating create a homely atmosphere. After adventures, curl up beside the fire and enjoy a film on the Smart TV. The adjoining galley-style kitchen is fully equipped for preparing family meals, with a separate utility area and convenient downstairs cloakroom. From the living room, stairs lead to a bright, inviting TV/playroom, well stocked with books, games, a Smart TV, and a DVD player. On the first floor, find two king bedrooms, one featuring an antique fireplace and views towards Poole Harbour, and another with an adjoining bunkroom. A family bathroom completes this floor. The top floor offers a luxurious king-size suite with an en-suite shower room – a peaceful retreat with plenty of space to unwind. Outside, the cottage’s enclosed garden is a true haven, with steps leading up to a generous lawn for games or simply relaxing in the sunshine. A sheltered patio area with a dining table for eight provides an idyllic setting for al fresco meals, BBQs, and evening drinks, surrounded by pretty floral borders. Unrestricted on-street parking is available.
Wander through the cobbled streets of Corfe Castle (1.5 miles), stopping at tea rooms and traditional pubs, or head to Swanage, a 5-mile drive east, where you'll find a sandy beach, family-friendly attractions and bustling high street. The beautiful South West Coast Path, Lulworth Cove, and Durdle Door, all within 15 miles.
