About this property

This lovely log cabin rests on the outskirts of Merriott, a historic village based around three roads surrounding a large area of farmland.

You will look forward to returning home, and simply enjoying everything the layout has to offer. The stylish bathroom is designed to a standard of quality, comprising of a shower over the bath and a vanity unit, well-appointed for the two fabulous bedrooms. A bunk room overlooks the fields in the distance, whilst the master suite is presented in a desirable fashion, each promising a wonderful night's sleep.

  • Karen

    Best nights sleep I've had in along time! Quiet location and within easy reach to many attractions. The pictures don't do it justice much better in reality.

  • Jonathan

    Equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay.

  • Robert

    We had glorious weather and enjoyed sitting outside too. The location is perfect for exploring both Dorset as well as Somerset with the south coast only half an hour’s drive away. The owners are friendly and caring, yet respect your privacy. We strongly recommend it to anyone longing for a rural retreat to unwind in.
