This rural spot boasts views across the Blackmore Vale and is half a mile from the village of Okeford Fitzpaine, where you ll find a shop and pub. Explore the many footpaths nearby, including the Wessex Ridgeway or head to the market town of Sturminster Newton (3 miles) for a stroll along the trailway or around the pretty working mill. Hambledon Hill and neighbouring Hod Hill (5 miles) are well worth a visit and once at the top you are rewarded with far reaching views across three counties. Enjoy wild swimming in the River Stour in the summer months or head to Blandford forum (6 miles) where there is a brewery tap and waterside walks, or visit Shaftesbury s iconic Gold Hill (8 miles). Accessed via an unmade lane and shared drive (bumpy in places), this semi detached converted barn is timber clad and has lovely views over the surrounding countryside. Set within an organic farm, sliding doors give access into the light and bright open plan lounge/kitchen/diner. To the rear of the space is the kitchen, which is equipped with an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. There is space to dine just opposite and comfortable seating beside the wood burner and Smart TV. There is also a ground floor shower room with walk in shower and WC, and stairs rising to the first floor. Here you will find a king size bedroom with balcony window and a twin bedroom just opposite. There is a separate WC between the two bedrooms. Due to the setting within the eaves, there are some areas of restricted head height, which only adds to the character and charm of the building. To the rear of the property is an open terrace with a dividing privacy fence, picnic bench, charcoal BBQ (in the summer months) and a large open field, ideal for ball games. Guests are welcome to play tennis, badminton, volleyball or football at the adjacent private all weather sports barn (rackets and balls provided). Slots are available on request, 24 hours in advance. Stabling and use of a paddock are available on request.
