Yoah Cottage is a charming and newly refurbished thatched cottage located in the tranquil village of West Knighton, near Dorchester in Dorset, South West England. This inviting property can accommodate up to nine guests, making it an ideal retreat for families or groups. The cottage features five well-appointed bedrooms, including three king-size rooms—two of which are en-suite—one room with two single beds, and a single bedroom situated on the ground floor. The interior is designed with a cozy yet contemporary feel, boasting low ceilings and a comfortable lounge area, alongside a fully equipped kitchen and a master bathroom with both a shower and bath.
One of the standout features of Yoah Cottage is its convenient location next to a family-owned local pub, which offers the option of pre-ordering freshly prepared meals. Guests can indulge in a variety of dishes such as Cottage Pie, Thai Vegetable Curry, Lasagne, or Fish Pie, all designed to serve six portions and available for just £18 each. Additionally, a selection of wines can be pre-ordered to enhance the dining experience. These meals are prepared in traditional family oven dishes and will be waiting in the fridge upon arrival, ensuring a hassle-free stay without the need for grocery shopping or cooking.
Surrounded by picturesque countryside, West Knighton serves as an excellent base for exploring the area, including the nearby Jurassic Coast and numerous family attractions. The village itself has a rich history, featuring an 11th-century church and a local pub. According to the 2011 census, the civil parish had a small population of 375, contributing to its quaint and serene atmosphere. For those looking for outdoor activities, the surrounding region offers various walking paths and attractions suitable for all ages, such as Kingston Maurward Park and Gardens.
While Yoah Cottage provides a wealth of amenities, it is important to note that there is no hot tub available on the property, a detail that has been clarified to prevent any misunderstandings. Guests will find that the cottage comes equipped with essential comforts, including a TV, DVD player, sheets, and towels. With its blend of rural charm and modern conveniences, Yoah Cottage is poised to offer a memorable getaway in the heart of Dorset.
