Boasting clean and contemporary décor throughout, this detached property has been decorated with the modern family in mind. The ground floor is expansive with an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner providing the most peaceful space to unwind. All of the family will find a comfy spot in the lounge, be it on the cushy sofa, chair or curled up by the wood burner. The traditional kitchen features an oil-fired Aga along with an electric oven for feeding 12 hungry mouths, with a chance to dine in the courtyard or at the impressive dining table.

Known as the Pearl of Dorset, the beautiful town of Lyme Regis can be found just 4 miles from home. Here there’s a fascinating fossil museum, plenty of restaurants serving a catch of the day and, of course, a pebble beach for walks and paddles. Family days out at the Axe Valley Wildlife Park (3 miles), Beer Quarry Caves (11 miles) and the Forde Abbey and Gardens (7.5 miles) will keep kids entertained, whilst adults might prefer a simple but satisfying walk along the spectacular Jurassic Coast (4 miles).
