Delight in their vineyard and taste some local wines made on the doorstep. It’s just a short drive from the coast; a perfect backdrop for creating memories you’ll treasure forever.

Walk through the prettiest of gardens and arrive at the front door of this beautiful property. Open the door into an elegant yet cosy lounge, where you can snooze by the inglenook fireplace or watch a film on a lazy afternoon.

With spacious rooms and sweet windows dotted all around, choose from one of the three upstairs bedrooms and look forward to deep slumbers and waking up naturally.

The cottage is in a quiet rural location adjoining another holiday cottage. There is a spacious garden with views over the countryside. We were there during the recent heatwave and enjoyed the shade under the tree. The garden chairs were very comfortable. The cottage is very old with many original features and a quirky layout upstairs. It is equippRead moreed with everything you need. I left my hat behind at the cottage and the owner very kindly posted it back to me. The shop in Musbury is very well stocked, with some excellent frozen ready meals, delicious Dorset ice cream and local strawberries. We visited Burrow Farm Gardens, we enjoyed the gardens and the excellent tea rooms. Because of the heat we didn't eat out very much, but we had a very good breakfast at The Club House, West Bexington, the sea breeze was very welcome. Hide

Wonover cottage is perfectly located for many great days out within easy reach. Its easy to find & spacious. We really enjoyed our stay in this home from home. We had our 2 large dogs with us & there was plenty of room for them. There is a large garden but not secure, not a problem for us but if you had smaller dogs, maybe. The garden appears to beRead more shared with the adjacent holiday cottage, not occupied during our stay. Hot tub was fab, extra logs available for a small fee. Info pack very good. Hide

Lovely cottage, beautiful views and curious cows. Shop fairly close but good idea to pack arrival essentials like tea, sugar & milk if just want to sit & have a cuppa before exploring.

Lovely cottage, very spacious with beautiful views. The hot tub is a faff but does eventually get hot, however, in our experience, it took more than more than 4 hours. The views from the top of the vineyard (part of the farm) are amazing and definitely worth the walk. All in all, we had a great stay.
