Welcoming two well-behaved furry-friends and boasting a handy single-storey layout, this delightful cottage is perfect for families or groups of friends seeking a tranquil countryside escape. Upon entering the abode, you will be greeted by a spacious open-plan area, where you can unwind after a day of exploration. The sitting room, complete with a Smart TV, offers a great spot to catch up with all your favourite films and shows even while on holiday! The designated chef of the group will appreciate the well-equipped kitchen, perfect for preparing delicious meals to be enjoyed at the dining table, seating six. Freshen up in the sleek bathroom, complete with a bath and an overhead shower before stepping outside to enjoy the front garden. Here, you can relax on the decking with a good book or a refreshing drink, while the children and dogs play on the lawn or the gravelled area. The outdoor furniture provides a perfect spot for alfresco dining or simply soaking up the serene surroundings. When the day draws to a close, retire to one of the three inviting bedrooms. The super-king-size bedroom boasts a Smart TV, perfect for those lazy mornings in bed. The double bedroom, also equipped with a Smart TV, offers a snug retreat, whilst the twin bedroom, with its own Smart TV, is ideal for younger guests or friends sharing. Venture beyond your countryside retreat to a wealth of sites and attractions. Engage your inner motor enthusiast at the British Motor Museum, housing hundreds of classic vehicles, from high-end sports models to humble family saloons. Immerse yourself in the elegance of 1930s high life at the National Trusts Upton House and Gardens, or step back further in time to explore the tranquil Elizabethan house, Canons Ashby. For outdoor pursuits, why not traverse the undulating landscape of Burton Dassett Hills, offering panoramic views of the Warwickshire countryside? Spend a cultured afternoon at Compton Verney Art Gallery and Park, which boasts six varied collections to admire, as well as 120 acres of parkland designed by the iconic Lancelot 'Capability' Brown. Enrich your historical knowledge with a visit to the moated and fortified Broughton Castle, or delve into Banbury's local heritage at Banbury Museum & Gallery. Whatever your holiday calling, Fenny Marina Cottage is the perfect base for your exploration of the precious shire of Warwickshire.
The hamlet of Fifehead Neville is peacefully located within the Blackmore Vale, less than ten miles from Blandford Forum in glorious North Dorset. The surrounding countryside, celebrated by Thomas Hardy, who wrote Return of The Native in nearby Sturminster Newton, is now a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and offers superb scenic walks and is a haven for wildlife. There is plenty to see and do within an easy drive, including Stourhead House and Gardens, the fabulous abbey and castles at Sherborne, the Saxon hilltop town of Shaftesbury, as well as the bustling market town of Dorchester. Just a little further afield, the beautiful cathedral city of Salisbury, and the popular seaside resorts of Bournemouth and Weymouth provide great days out. A super holiday base from which to explore this lovely part of the Dorset.

We found complementary tea,coffee, milk and biscuits which was a nice thought from the owner. They have not skimped on furnishings as everything was good quality, we had a slight problem with the shower but the owner arrived within 5 minutes to sort it, the one problem was the garden it was not enclosed so we had to keep our dog on a lead when she wanted the loo but we have been told by the owner that he will make it secure and I believe that he will as he only opened over the last few months and that is one of the next jobs. Would I stay there again the answer to that is yes and we look forward to going back next year

Great communication from the owners. The house was immaculate, well presented and spotlessly clean. There were many lovely surprises, biscuits, cake and milk. They had thought about the little things, dishwasher tablets, kitchen roll, hairdryer and tea/coffee. The towels and linens were all of good quality and well presented. Teenagers were happy being able to use netflix and had good wifi. Huge secure garden for our dog was perfect. The walks along the canal were beautiful on sunny autumnal days. The Wharf inn at the end of the road does a lively pub lunch and there are great road links too. We will be back!
