Wans Barton is a beautifully-situated modern barn on a remote farm with views of the sea above Chesil Beach. It's cozy and well-appointed with all the fittings anyone could require. The kitchen is well-equipped and the rooms are comfortable. It's suitable for guests with limited walking as there are two down-stairs bedrooms, one with ensuite and a separate guest bathroom with walk in shower.
