Poacher's Cottage - Self-catering in Dorset
Dominey’s Yard, Locketts Lane, Buckland Newton, DT2 7BS, Dorset
England,
Reino Unido
A marvellous spot to bring children; you'll find a cot, stairgate, games and books, a heated swimming pool, a big communal garden for romping and a very pleasant pub to which you have your own gate. Here you'll find a further 5 acres, a play bus and good food. Evenings having a barbecue on your private patio will be lovely, or in winter you'll be cosy round the wood-burner in the sitting room.
Bedrooms continue the theme of pastel shades with a nod to wildlife in the artwork and have nice views; the shared shower room is gleaming. There's room for everyone to help in the well-equipped kitchen and you'll find all the basics for cooking along with eggs, homemade cake, milk, bread and butter. You eat at a round table in the sitting room.
There are marked walks straight from the back door and you'll find details in an information pack. Children will adore petting the pygmy goats in the pub garden.

Local points of interest from Adele Murray:
Puntos de interés sobre la región de
Adele Murray:
- Dorchester – the county town. Visit the Roman Town House and Amphitheatre and also stand in the dock where the Martyrs stood trial.
- Sherborne – a beautiful and historic market town, home to Sherborne Abbey, Castle (the former home of Sir Walter Raleigh) and Gardens. The town itself has a wide range of individually owned shops, boutiques and antique shops to while away the afternoon.
- Milton Abbas – the epitome of a Dorset village, dozens of beautiful thatched cob cottages lining each side of the only road in and out of the village, complete with pub and tea rooms serving delicious food. The Abbey church close by is also open to the public.
- Weymouth – The classic English seaside resort and a favourite bathing place of George III. Sandy beaches with brightly coloured beach huts, punch and judy and donkey rides, sit comfortably alongside a back drop of independent shops, cafés and restaurants.
- Wareham – sits on the banks of the River Frome and is a saxon walled town. A great place to wander around with various unique shops and cafes. Hire a boat or kayak or for the less energetic board a river cruise to while away an hour or two.
- Jurassic Coast – a World Heritage site, stretching from Studland Bay, on the southern shore of Poole Harbour, to Exmouth in East Devon. The Dorset coast incorporates just over 80 miles of the South West Coast Path along this stretch.
