Bramble is one of three stunningly beautiful eco retreats sitting within tranquil and wonderful rural landscape with far reaching countryside views. Guests can relax in comfort and style after an exciting day exploring the local area.
The light and spacious, open-plan accommodation is all on the ground floor which leads out via the bi-folding doors to the sunny terrace, garden and beautiful countryside beyond. Sleeping four guests in two king-size bedrooms, both with their own en-suite, with luxury features of a copper bath and large copper shower tray. Bramble is an ideal choice for your Dorset holiday with family or friends, or the perfect romantic retreat. The well-appointed and sociable living and dining area with kitchen are perfect for spending time together, with the wood burning stove creating a cosy atmosphere for relaxing evenings.
Outside, far-reaching rural views of Bulbarrow and The Blackmore Vale can be enjoyed from the warmth of the hot tub, where a spot of star gazing is a must.
Walking opportunities are endless, with the Wessex Ridgeway on your doorstep.

Ansty can be reached in around 15 minutes on foot, otherwise in around 3 minutes by car.

Immaculately presented, this peaceful luxury property has a lot to commend it. The views acrossBulborough Hill and over the Blackmore Vale and way beyond are absolutely outstanding. You can watch the sun come up and go down. It's privacy is ensured by a flower-covered embankment and gabion from the other properties and the impact from the farm is limited to a few tractors going up and down the lane. Two reasons I can only give it 4-stars: firstly, it may be architect designed but style has come over function - e.g. no shelves/drawers in the master bedroom, stylish but unusable bedroom sinks, storage cupboards in the bedroom that need a ladder to access, shower/bath that is polished metal and a slip hazard. Secondly, Yes - it has a ground source heat pump, sedum roof and its own sewage digester but you cannot claim Eco credentials with a bath big enough to dry-dock the Titanic, unnecessary electronics and a wood-burning hot tub. However, stick with the luxury tag and its a great place to stay, with a very good pub 30-minutes walk away (best steak I have ever eaten), lots to see within a bicycle ride away on quiet roads (but you need to be either fit or have an electric bike). Beautiful part of Dorset within reach of the coast but avoid A-roads at commuting times. If in Dorchester there is a good range of restaurants around Brewery Square.
