One of three unique, detached eco retreats, Fern and its neighbours Bracken and Bramble have been constructed in 2020 to the highest standards and enjoy far-reaching views and a decadent wood fired hot tub.
This detached, three bedroom property has been beautifully and thoughtfully designed with everything you could wish for to enjoy an escape to North Dorset's rural splendour. Situated on a working farm, Fern boasts extensive views of Bulbarrow and The Blackmore Vale and enjoys peace and quiet all around.
Inside Fern, the single-storey, open-plan accommodation is light and spacious with cosy under-floor heating throughout, provided by an eco-friendly ground source heat pump. Cook up a delicious meal made with fresh, local ingredients in the modern and well-equipped kitchen, and then snuggle up around the wood burning stove. Open the bi-folding doors and relax in your very own wood fired hot tub. Outside, along with the hot tub is the terrace and garden where you can soak up the sunshine and take in those wonderful views.
Sleeping up to six guests in three bedrooms (two with king-size beds and a third with twin single beds), each with their own en-suite shower room, Fern is an ideal choice for a wonderful Dorset break with family or friends.
