Description

Facing an expanse of National Trust heathland, this attractive detached 1920s holiday home offers delightful accommodation for keen walkers and nature lovers looking to explore this idyllic area.

Ideally situated in the picturesque Dorset village of Studland, this attractive property makes a wonderful base for exploring the Purbeck Hills. The cottage faces the National Trust’s Studland and Godlingston Heath, which offers great opportunities for walkers and cyclists. The beautiful sandy beach of Studland Bay is just a mile away, with local landmarks including Dragon’s Teeth nearby. Nature-lovers can also explore Hartland Moor Nature Reserve (7 miles), RSPB Stoborough Heath (8 miles) and Durlston Country Park (5 miles). Nearby Swanage (5 miles) is known for its beautiful beach, traditional promenade and pier, and you can catch a steam train to the village of Corfe Castle (5.5 miles). From Studland, you can catch a ferry to Poole or Brownsea Island.

Stepping into this delightful property, you will pass through a hall which is ideal for leaving coats and boots, and into a pretty lounge. This light and tastefully furnished room is ideal for sitting back in front of the open fire and watching a movie in the evening. The lounge also offers a picture window with heath and sea glimpses. Moving into the kitchen/diner, there’s a cheerful dining area perfect for enjoying a family meal. The stylish kitchen is fully equipped with an oven, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, washing machine and a Bluetooth sound system. Exploring the ground floor further, you can relax in the charming and light-filled conservatory which looks out over the garden. There is also a ground-floor WC. Heading upstairs you will find three cosy bedrooms, all with views over the open heath and with sea glimpses. The double bedroom has a feature fireplace, and there are two twin rooms, one with a feature fireplace. You will also find a bathroom complete with a shower over the bath and a WC.

Stepping outside, there are charming gated lawn gardens both to the front and back of the property, with Purbeck stone paths. A terrace in the back garden features outdoor furniture and a pergola. The back garden also features children’s play equipment including a slide (use at own risk - children up to 10 years old only).
