1 Bed Cottage in Fifehead Neville

About this property

Savour the serenity of this romantic retreat for two in the beautiful Dorset countryside. Nestled within gorgeous stable buildings, the one-bedroom hideaway at Fifehead Neville, 3 miles from Sturminster Newton, makes the perfect escape. Head into the market town to dine out and stock up on local produce, then return to relax on the bench overlooking the charming courtyard.

Approach via the shared driveway to let yourselves into this bolthole, which is close to the owner’s home but enjoys its privacy. Make your way into the inviting lounge and light the wood burner in here, then settle back to find a film on the Smart TV. When you are ready for dinner, wander down to the kitchen to rustle up something special with the fresh Dorset produce you have sourced in nearby farmers’ markets and shops. Set the charming table for a lovely meal for two. A family shower room is also located on the ground floor. At the end of each fabulous day away, climb the stairs up to the first floor and your lovely king-size bedroom. This is set into the eaves and features characterful, sloped ceilings. It also has an en-suite bathroom where you can enjoy a relaxing bath at the end of each eventful day. Carry morning coffee out into the courtyard and watch the antics of the resident peacock, hens and guinea fowl. There is off-road parking here for two cars.

Plan day trips down to the Jurassic Coast. Visit picturesque Lulworth Cove, 24 miles away, and dramatic Durdle Door, with its natural limestone arch, 23 miles away.
