This charming Grade II, 18th century cottage is set within a terrace of properties in the village of Kingston. Nestled on the hill above Corfe Castle, the castle itself is one of the area’s most popular attractions and is cared for by the National Trust. Corfe Castle village is well worth exploring too, as it has quaint streets lined with period cottages, tea rooms and a choice of pubs. Heading east, you will find the traditional seaside town of Swanage, which has something for everyone including a sandy beach and bustling high street. The property is also the ideal base for touring, with many of Dorset’s most famous walks and landmarks within reach, including The South Coast Path, Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door.

Entering through the front door, you are  greeted by an inner porch ideal for storing muddy boots and coats. Once inside, you are met with a spacious but cosy living and dining room. This inviting lounge has a wood burner and Smart TV, making it the ideal spot to settle down after a day spent exploring. At the end of the dining area, you will find the well- equipped, galley style kitchen with all you need to prepare family meals. Through the kitchen is a utility space and another door leads through to a downstairs WC. From the living room, a flight of stairs takes you up to a delightful TV and playroom, well stocked with a large selection of books and games and a smart TV and DVD. Perfect for whiling away the hours on a sunny day. Heading up another set of stairs from the living room to the first floor of the property, there is a pretty king-size bedroom with beams and antique cast iron fireplace from where you can catch a glimpse of Poole Harbour. Another king-size bedroom has an adjoining bunkroom, both with views out across the garden. It’s a very inviting place to sleep before taking a soak in the family bathroom with WC next door. At the top of the cottage on the second floor is an impressive and generously appointed king-size bedroom with en-suite shower room. A luxurious retreat at the end of a busy day exploring the surrounding countryside.

Heading outside. Four gentle steps lead up to the garden with ample lawned areas perfect for unwinding or for playing games. There is a sunny but sheltered patio with dining table and chairs for 8 people, surrounded by floral borders, ideal for leisurely meals, BBQs and drinks.

Stayed at the cottage for a week. From the outside it only looks small but when you walk in, it is like the tardis. Amazing garden. Opposite the local pub, but no disturbances from that area. Fantastic walks straight outside the door.

I cannot recommend this lovely cottage highly enough! It is perfect for a family holiday. Location is fantastic, close to Corfe Castle and beautiful sandy beaches. Quiet residential location opposite a country pub. The cottage itself is deceptively spacious and has everything you could need. The layout is great for families and the play room and gaRead morerden are fantastic. I would definitely recommend and will certainly be booking again!! Hide
