This pretty property is nestled in the grounds of Whatley House in Beaminster, Dorset. Quietly tucked away from the main residence this ground floor conversion is approached through a private entrance shared only with the owner.
With exposed beams this property is ideal for couples looking for a quiet and relaxing break whilst still being just a short drive from the picturesque coastal town of Lyme Regis and the famous Jurassic Coast of West Bay and nearby Bridport town, famous for its artisan weekly market.
The property can be used as an ideal location for exploring the whole of the Dorset area. An easy walk along to the town centre with its selection of restaurants, shops, pubs and tea rooms, means you can forget the car and completely relax.
A must for walkers Beaminster is surrounded by public footpaths leading in all directions, for those with energy you can walk the many hills, you will be rewarded with stunning views to the coast and far reaching countryside.
Not far from Beaminster is the Elizabethan manor house of Mapperton, with its attractive valley garden. The house has been the home of the Earls of Sandwich since the Restoration of King Charles II. Concerts and various other events are held here. There are several other local gardens which are open to the public at certain times throughout the summer.
At Midsummer each year, the Beaminster Festival of Music and the Visual Arts is held in the town. The festival lasts for ten days and includes a wide range of festivities and events. The town has its own local history museum museum featuring Beaminster and neighbouring villages. The varied special exhibitions change throughout the season. This is an ideal centre from which to explore other Dorset attractions and there are many lovely walks around the area. The town itself offers a range of small shops and cafés.
The former Broadwindsor Farm is now a craft and design complex of shops and workshops with its own award winning restaurant. The Llama experience offers a guided walk through the Dorset countryside with llamas and alpacas, or perhaps you would prefer a Donkey Walking Adventure – not the sort of experiences one might expect in a West Country town.
The harbour of the pretty village of West Bay is the starting point for the eleven mile walk along the valley of the River Brit. This scenic route ends to the north of Beaminster at Winyards Gap.
Please note: This property is only suitable for a maximum of 2 adults and a small dog.
