About this property

Preston 1.6 miles. Farmhouse Cottage is a Grade ll listed thatched property in Osmington and is the perfect place for a family or couples to come and explore the wonderful Dorset countryside. It's got a woodburning stove for cooler evenings, beamed ceilings to show off its character and is also pet-friendly! This chocolate box cottage is the oldest building in Osmington so be sure to admire its original features on arrival. The sitting room is an excellent space for you to relax and unwind in. It is furnished with a sofa, a chair, a woodburning stove, and a TV. The room also has a study area and is a great space for you to get some work done. Stepping through the home, locate the spacious kitchen/diner hosting an oven, gas hob, microwave, fridge/freezer and a washing machine to keep your clothes fresh. Gather around the dining table to tuck-into a feast or why not head outside onto the suntrap patio to sip a cold beverage? As the evening winds to a close, retire inside and climb upstairs to the first floor to choose between three well-appointed double bedrooms, all with bedside lamps for a nighttime read. In the morning, have a quick wash in the shower room or take your time to relax in the bathroom for a soak. Jump in the car to visit Preston, a quaint seaside town with plenty of charm, take a stroll along Greenhill Beach, and enjoy a meal or a drink at one of the town's many restaurants and bars. Springhead and The Beachside are two of the most popular spots, offering stunning views of the sea. Take a trip to Weymouth, home to a variety of attractions, including the impressive Portland Castle and the scenic Weymouth Harbour. The town also boasts a number of excellent restaurants and bars, including the popular Crustacean seafood restaurant and the lively Sea Beats bar. Lace up your walking boots and explore the Dorset AONB, known for its rolling hills, picturesque villages and stunning coastline. The National Trust is a major attraction in the area, with properties such as the Hardy Monument, Abbotsbury and St Catherine's Chapel. The coastline is also popular with visitors, with attractions such as The Nine Stones and Winterbourne Poor Lot Barrows. For a wonderful setting in Dorset, make Farmhouse Cottage your next getaway.

Preston is a little seaside community one mile from the major beach resort of Weymouth. Weymouth offers it all: gorgeous beaches, activities, and a lively waterfront.

    The wood burning stove was great to have for the evenings. The only drawback we found was the lack of space to store/hang clothes in 2 of the bedrooms. We had fabulous weather in October and overall this was a great home from home.

    The cottage was perfect for us in the recent heatwave - lovely cool interior. Beds, pillows, sofas were v comfortable. Safe enclosed garden for dog and small children. Easy parking. Great access to coast and inland. It's a character cottage so facilities were as expected and we were happy with provisions. Tea/coffee/biscuits and milk were a welcome surprise. You can hear traffic from the main road if that bothers you (it didn't us). The patio does need some repair work but overall we were very happy. Also a fantastic Thai food chef just minutes away (requires notice as freshly cooked).

  • Anne

    Accommodation okay, but bathrooms and kitchen unfortunately in need of a good clean. A few essentials missing, cafetière, clothes pegs, but otherwise fairly good. Patio dangerously broken and uneven, also steps down to back door tricky with wobbly handrail!
