Greenbanks is a charming detached holiday home situated in Abbotsbury, Dorset, along the scenic coastal path between Abbotsbury and West Bexington. This property, which accommodates up to nine guests across four bedrooms, boasts spectacular, uninterrupted views of the sea and sky, making it an ideal getaway for nature lovers. Recently refurbished, Greenbanks retains many of its original features, such as an inviting open fire, while providing spacious and comfortable living spaces. Each bedroom is equipped with its own bathroom, ensuring privacy and convenience for all guests.
The location of Greenbanks is both private and accessible, reached via a narrow, sometimes bumpy track. Despite its secluded setting, the nearest pub serving food is just a 20-minute walk along the coastal path towards West Bexington. Additionally, a short 15-20 minute stroll in the opposite direction leads to the renowned sub-tropical gardens of Abbotsbury. For those looking for more extensive amenities, local shops are available 2½ miles away, while the towns of Bridport, Dorchester, and Weymouth are each approximately 10 miles from the property.
Inside, the ground floor features a spacious living room with French doors that open into a dining room, conservatory, and snug area, alongside a children's play area. The well-equipped kitchen includes modern appliances such as an electric cooker, microwave, and dishwasher, while the laundry facilities are conveniently located in an external boot room. The first floor offers three additional bedrooms, all with stunning sea views, and various bathroom configurations, including en-suites and separate facilities. The living space is enhanced by central heating from a biomass wood pellet boiler, Wi-Fi, and Sky TV, ensuring a comfortable stay for all guests.
Outside, Greenbanks features a large lawned garden and a terrace equipped with furniture and a barbecue, perfect for enjoying the picturesque surroundings. Ample parking is available, and the property is pet-friendly, making it suitable for families and their furry companions. Guests are advised to bring their own beach towels, and while some weeks allow shorter stays, the main changeover day is Friday for weekly bookings. The area surrounding the property is rich in natural beauty, offering fantastic walks, views, and sunsets, as well as opportunities for outdoor activities such as hiking and fishing.
