Oak Barn at Wooden Cabbage - Self-catering apartment in Dorset
East Chelborough, Dorchester, DT2 0QA, Dorset
England,
Reino Unido
Leafy lanes and a private drive lead you to this lovely Green Oak Barn next to the owners’ hamstone house hidden in rolling West Dorset. Savour the total peace, valley views and clear starry skies.
Martyn and Susie give you a very comfortable stay - the bed is superking and over 7-feet long. Views look out over fields, oak beams soar above you and the whole room is lovely and light. There’s a little kitchen area which has all you need for holiday cooking. The thatched folly is yours to relax in, as well as a private area by the orchard with teak furniture and sun loungers.
Walk to the nearest village for a shop, a bit further for a good pub. Spot deer, foxes and swallows and house martins dipping and diving over the garden, listen to nightingales, drive to the Jurassic coast for a day by the sea. Return to comfy sofas and your own private space, as well as an evening drink watching the wonderful sunsets.
