The outdoor dining terrace with pergola and a table and chairs is the perfect spot for enjoying your morning coffee or an alfresco lunch or dinner.
Guests can easily stroll into town and visit the famous Dorset County Museum to discover and enjoy the richness of the county’s natural, historical and cultural heritage with world-class collections.

Famously named Casterbridge in Thomas Hardy’s novels 'The Mayor of Casterbridge' and 'Tess of the D’Urbervilles', it is easy to appreciate how Dorchester and the surrounding area inspired the author.

Such a superb snug home away from home! Ideally furnished with all you could wish for. The "Goodies-Basket" was a great surprise amd served us well for the start :) A great "Thank you" to you Caroline & Fen, you've put a lot of love and thought into creating this lovely little home! We would love to return when travelling gets easier... less restrictions due to "Covid"
