The charming village of Corfe Castle sits below the much-photographed castle ruins cared for by the National Trust. The village is well-serviced with local amenities and is surrounded by beautiful countryside, including the ancient Corfe Castle Common. Miles of footpaths are easily accessible via nearby Red Lane or take the steam train from the village station to the traditional seaside town of Swanage (5.5 miles) where you can enjoy the sandy beach and amusements on offer. The property is conveniently located near the A351 which leads to Swanage from Corfe Castle. Heading north from the property takes you to the unspoilt beaches of Studland Bay (5.5 miles). For a fun-filled day out, visit the ever-popular Tank Museum or Monkey World ape rescue centre, both within 11 miles.
Enter this newly refurbished in 2024, well-designed, home-from-home semi-detached property via the spacious stone-floored hallway where you can kick off your walking boots. The charming living room features a wood burner, a stone floor and underfloor heating, creating a cosy ambience. French doors lead from the living room to the enchanting rear garden, allowing the outside to blend seamlessly with the indoors. Continuing your journey, a door leads to the fully fitted kitchen equipped with contemporary amenities. A door from the kitchen opens into the conservatory, transformed into a delightful dining room where natural light bathes every meal. Convenience meets style with a downstairs WC where you can also find the washing machine. Ascend the stairs to discover the upper level, where three inviting bedrooms await. The master bedroom boasts a comfortable king-size bed, while a twin and a single bedroom provide versatile sleeping arrangements. The single room has a quirky feature fireplace. The family bathroom is a sanctuary, offering both a relaxing bath and a separate shower.
The large garden is a tranquil holiday haven: the perfect place for unwinding after a day of exploration or watching the children play on the lawn. Discover a small, safely covered pond, adding an extra touch of serenity to the surroundings. Yet, the real spectacle lies in the breathtaking view. Keep a keen eye out for the distant steam train, its rhythmic journey providing a picturesque backdrop to your stay.

We had a wonderful stay at Fig Tree Cottage over the New Year. It's a lovely property, with a good sized garden (ideal for our dog), and in a great location for walking into the village and the surrounding countryside. Plenty to do in and around Corfe Castle, and nice that you can do so much without having to use your car. The cottage was decorated for Christmas, and was very cosy and warm which was nice on the cold winter days. Would definitely recommend this property as it's an ideal base for exploring the Isle of Purbeck and beyond.

Lovely cottage that has been renovated sympathetically. Situated in an area with lots of things to access. Many walks from the door. Garden large and secure.

Gorgeous cottage - super cosy. We loved the underfloor heating and conservatory space. We really appreciated the enclosed garden - perfect for the dogs. Lovely touch to have dog basket and blankets available. Perfect base to explore the area and happily cosy up indoors on rainy days.
