3 Bed Cottage in Christchurch

About this property

Offering welcoming, stylish and tasteful accommodation for up to eight guests, this generous, elegantly decorated property makes a fantastic holiday hideaway for beach lovers, nature spotters and walkers keen to discover an idyllic corner of the Dorset countryside. The property lies on the outskirts of Christchurch, a thriving town on the banks of the River Stour, with a stunning harbour (3.5 miles) opening out into Christchurch Bay. The town has a wealth of great places to eat and drink, with other attractions nearby including Mudeford Quay, the Red House Museum and Hengistbury Head, all within 4.5 miles. Heading along the coast, Southbourne Beach (3.5 miles) stretches west via Boscombe to Bournemouth (6.5 miles). Inland, the southern reaches of the New Forest (5 miles) provide wonderful walking opportunities, with local attractions including the Moors Valley Railway, Liberty’s Owl, Raptor and Reptile Centre, and Bournemouth Aviation Museum, all within 10.5 miles.

Entering this inviting property you will be greeted by a delightful, light-filled conservatory which leads through into the spacious main living area: a stylishly presented and beautifully furnished open-plan lounge/diner decorated in fresh, soothing tones. The cosy lounge space features a Smart TV and ample seating, and leads across to a sociable, beautifully lit dining area with picture windows overlooking the garden. Just off the dining room you will find a chic, thoughtfully arranged and fully equipped kitchen alongside a convenient utility room. The ground floor also has a useful shower room. Heading upstairs, the landing features a small gallery sitting beneath a skylight and overlooking the main living area below. The first floor features three light and inviting bedrooms: the first is a bright and spacious family room with a high vaulted ceiling, a sweet balcony, two single beds and a pull-out double; exploring further you will find a charming bunk bedroom and a beautiful king-size room beneath a high ceiling and featuring a Juliet balcony looking across the garden. The accommodation is rounded off with an invigorating shower room which has Jack and Jill access from the king-size bedroom and the hall.

Patio doors lead from the dining area and into the beautiful back garden which has been stylishly prepared and elegantly arranged, with a charming summer house, plenty of outdoor furniture and an eye-catching moongate set within a pretty hedge. Off-road parking is available for three cars on the driveway at the front of the property.
