Accommodation Details

All ground floor. 1 x king size with ensuite shower, basin and WC. Open plan living area with kitchen, dining area and sitting area.

Located deep in the countryside on the borders of Wiltshire and Dorset, Cools Farm is the magical setting for two self-catering cottages, sensitively created from redundant farm buildings. The Tractor Shed is a modern conversion providing top quality living accommodation on a single (ground floor level). Inside, you’ll find clean lines and contemporary fittings, all presented to a really high standard with everything you could need for a restful break. The real joy here is staying on the heart of a farm, which itself is a wonderful place to escape to. With breath taking views and access to walking opportunities on the Wessex Ridgeway, part of which crosses the farm, you’ll have a tough job deciding whether simply to relax and take it all in or get on the walking boots and roam across the local area. Cyclists can join the nearby Wessex Cycle Way, and all in all this is a great choice if you’re looking for a quality rural retreat in a really stunning setting. Please note that The Tractor Shed can be booked with The Milking Parlour (988956) to accommodate a total of eight people.
