This charming property blends contemporary design with home comforts allowing a family of four to relax and unwind on a holiday by the water. Whether you are enjoying a BBQ on the Songbird House private decking or relaxing with a glass of wine on the property-width balcony, this home from home is the perfect spot to make memories with family and friends.
The downstairs open plan kitchen dining living area benefits from patio doors that access the decking outside allowing light and air to pour in. Comfortable sofas, a Smart TV and Bluetooth speaker make staying in all the more tempting on rainy days, particularly with the wood-burning stove to seal the deal. A well-equipped kitchen has all you need from a convenient breakfast bar, Nespresso coffee machine and dishwasher to make your holiday mornings easy, whilst a downstairs WC completes the amenities on the ground floor.
The first floor holds two spacious king bedrooms, one with en-suite and one with access to a family bathroom with over bath shower. Both rooms benefit from access to the private balcony that offers partial views of the lake and is a great spot to sip your morning tea.
With bed linen, towels and even dishwasher tablets included, Songbird House has everything to make your family holiday run smoothly. Thoughtfully designed with soft furnishings, wall art and personal touches there is a home-like atmosphere that blends with all the practical elements from WIFI to parking.
Nestled in the Dorset coastal countryside, Songbird House offers a relaxing lakeside holiday with style and comfort at the forefront. There is something for everyone at the Silverlake activity hub from tennis courts to paddle boarding, whilst those looking to relax and unwind can head for a restorative swim and sauna at the shared pool and spa. Surrounded by the Dorset heathlands, where in the summer wild ponies roam, the house is within reaching distance of the stunning Jurassic Coastline and its glorious beaches, the perfect spot to enjoy all the county has to offer.
The Silverlake country estate offers luxury accommodation in the peace and calm of the freshwater lakes and sweeping countryside views that surround it. Rest, revive and recharge at the Hurricane Spa by reclining in the heated infinity pool after enjoying a massage or facial in one of the treatment rooms. Take in the surrounding beauty of the idyllic lakeside views from the spa’s own private beach or blow off steam in state-of the art gym.
The property’s proximity to the neighbouring lakes means it will be hard to entice yourself away from the water, with kayaks, paddleboards and fishing aplenty. For those who prefer to stay on dry land why not zip wire over the water instead? Or grab a bike and take the family off for beautiful bike ride on the wider estate stopping off for a picnic in a tranquil spot whilst nature spotting the local birds and wildlife.
The beautiful county of Dorset is a popular tourist spot, an area known for its rolling dales, protected heathlands and breath-taking UNESCO-heritage Jurassic coastline. The property is within reaching distance of fabulous beaches, including the beautiful shingle Ringsted Bay, which at low tide reveals a wide expanse of sand. It is the perfect beach for quiet and calm surrounded by neighbouring farmlands. For those who like to get out and explore the stunning countryside, we recommend a visit to Moreton Forest with a range of tree-filled walks amongst the towering conifers.
A trip to the Smuggler’s Inn, a historic 13th Century pub with unbeatable sea views of the Isle of Portland is an absolute must with an excellent selection of ales to sample and delicious food, the perfect spot for a pitstop after a lovely scenic stroll.
If you’re looking to take in the area’s fascinating history then you won’t be disappointed with the thousand-year-old Corfe Castle, a majestic ruin established by William the Conqueror, just a short drive away. Fans of Thomas Hardy can visit Dorchester’s Dorset Museum which houses the largest Hardy Collection in the world, bequeathed by his wife Florence. Just thirty 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. A visit to the colourful Lighthouse Arts Centre offers art exhibitions, theatre and film then why not finish off the day with some locally caught fish and chips on the beach.
Other close-by towns which are well worth a visit include the charming county town of 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 twenty-minute car journey away and is a must-visit while in the area.
