Accommodation overview: This spacious, detached barn conversion is set on a working pedigree Red Devon beef farm of 450 acres, surrounded by Forestry Commission and NT land. This very smart single-storey holiday cottage has a generous layout and the open-plan living/dining room/kitchen has a real wow factor with its high vaulted ceiling and wood-burning stove, and guests have shared use of an outdoor solar-heated exercise swimming pool. It offers a quiet retreat but with local attractions all near at hand.
Moors Valley Country Park and Dorset Heavy Horse Farm and Park are very close by as is Horton Tower which was used in the Thomas Hardy film Far from the Madding Crowd. Enjoy the market towns of Ringwood, Christchurch, Wimborne and Blandford. The New Forest can be discovered on foot, or by car or bicycle - exploring some of the appealing villages, and perhaps stopping for a cream tea in one of the many popular tea rooms. The coastline with its Blue Flag beaches at Poole and Bournemouth are just a short drive and a little further to an area known as the Purbecks which offer pretty chocolate box villages such as NT Corfe Castle; from here take the Swanage Steam Railway into the seaside town of Swanage. Shop and pub 1 mile.
