Situated in the charming Dorset town of Wimborne Minster, this traditional 18th century cottage is the perfect holiday retreat. Set within a walled garden and adjoining the orchard on the Deans Court estate, Stour Valley Cottage offers ample space for six guests to rest and restore, escaping the hustle and bustle of day to day life.
Paired with Meadow Cottage, a similar six-guest property next door, this set up is perfect for two families travelling together, that can enjoy each other’s company, whilst benefiting from the privacy of separate cottages.
This beautiful house has been lovingly restored throughout. Chalk white walls, Farrow & Ball paints and re-upholstered vintage furniture create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, that is incredibly easy to settle in to. Guests can enjoy sweeping views across the Stour Valley, with the rooftops of Wimborne Minster adding to the charming atmosphere. Whether you are curled by the fire in the lounge, preparing food in the kitchen or sipping a glass of wine on the terrace, every aspect of this cottage is relaxing.
Downstairs a modern, fully-equipped, country kitchen is the heart of the home, with a vintage dining table creating an easy and fun space to spend quality time as a family. Guests can visit the Cafe on the estate, and enjoy delicious homemade soups, quiches, cakes and baked goods. The lounge boasts comfortable sofas and an Inglenook fireplace with a wood burner, creating the ultimate cosy ambience, making this cottage perfect even on rainy days!
Throughout the house there are three beautiful bedrooms with linen blinds framing the picturesque meadow views. There is one en-suite, double room on the ground floor, as well as two spacious doubles on the first floor that share a bathroom.
The cottage is just a few-minutes’ walk into Wimborne’s town centre and the rest of Dorset is within easy reach by car, with the stunning Jurassic Coast nearby. Stour Valley Cottage has something for everyone, the perfect base for exploring all that Dorset has to offer.
Stour Valley Cottage holds a marvellous location within the beautiful county of Dorset, an area known for its rolling dales, protected heathlands and breath-taking Jurassic coastline. The house is situated in the charming town of Wimborne Minster, perfect for a quiet break away from busy day to day lives.
Set within the town, The Tivoli Theatre, with its Art Deco interiors, is perfect for evenings of entertainment. It runs a full programme of cinema, theatre and music, with something for everyone. Kids and adults alike love to explore the tiny streets of the small Model Town. A perfect scale replica (1:10) of Wimborne in 1950! The town boasts fifteen pubs and bars, perfect after long country walks or cosy evenings out for dinner.
The house is within reaching distance of fabulous beaches, wonderful countryside, historical attractions and charming market towns. Just twenty minutes away, is the picturesque town of Poole, here you can hop on a ferry and visit neighbouring islands or soak up the sunrays on the near-by golden beaches at Sandbanks and Bournemouth. Other close-by towns which are well worth a visit include the charming county town of Dorchester, Weymouth with its recognisable Georgian seafront and the lively market towns of Bridport and Lyme Regis. The famous Durdle Door, a natural limestone arch, is just a forty five-minute car journey away and is a must-visit while in the area.
