The charming village of Charminster, located in the picturesque countryside of Dorset, serves as an ideal base for those looking to explore the surrounding area. Just two miles from the county town of Dorchester and in close proximity to the stunning Jurassic Coast World Heritage site, this location offers an abundance of opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts. Visitors can enjoy numerous walking routes that meander through the beautiful landscapes, while also having the chance to observe a variety of local wildlife, including buzzards, pheasants, kingfishers, otters, and deer. Additionally, the historic village of Cerne Abbas, famous for its chalk giant, and the coastal town of Weymouth, known for its sandy beach and Georgian architecture, are both within easy reach for day trips.

The accommodation is a detached single-storey property situated within the grounds of the owner’s home, ensuring privacy while still being close to amenities. A shared driveway leads to the main entrance of the studio-style property, which features an open-plan layout that combines a lounge, kitchen, dining area, and sleeping space. Bi-folding doors at the front of the property allow natural light to fill the room and provide stunning views across the lawn to the nearby river, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The contemporary kitchen is well-equipped with modern appliances, including an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge with an ice compartment, dishwasher, and washer/dryer, catering to all culinary needs.

The living area is thoughtfully designed for comfort and convenience, featuring a dining table for two and cozy seating options for relaxing while watching television or enjoying the scenic views. The king-size bed, which can be separated by a privacy curtain if desired, also faces the garden, allowing guests to wake up to tranquil outdoor vistas. A stylish shower room completes the accommodation, providing all necessary amenities for a comfortable stay.

Outside, the bi-folding doors open onto a lovely patio area, complete with a large lawn, garden furniture, and a bench, perfect for al fresco dining while taking in the serene surroundings. Guests can also engage in outdoor games such as badminton and croquet, adding a touch of fun to their stay. For those traveling with vehicles, off-road parking is available, accommodating up to two cars. This idyllic retreat not only offers a cozy place to stay but also serves as a gateway to the natural beauty and attractions of Dorset.
