At the gates of a country estate, two quirky hexagonal lodge houses with private outdoor seating and acres of grounds for walks and picnics

The living spaces are cosy and in good country-house style, with squishy sofas, merry wood-burners and fresh flowers from the gardens – you'll find big TVs too for rainy days. The windows are very pretty and there are books, so it shan't feel miserable if you're stuck indoors. On sunny days you can sit under the trees with your morning cup of tea or evening sundowner with glorious views over the estate.

Kitchens have painted Shaker units and all you need for holiday cooking (East Lodge has a slightly bigger one); you eat at tables under the window. You're left a hamper with local milk, eggs, jam, butter, cheese and bread – you can also buy fruit, vegetables and honey from the walled garden on the estate. Well-dressed bedrooms, not huge, have thick bath robes and sparkling bathrooms with True Grace soaps.

You're in glorious countryside on the edge of a tiny village with afternoon teas in the community hall on Sundays.

Local points of interest from Olivia O'Sullivan:

Olivia O'Sullivan:

Stunning walks either within the estate parklands or head off into the AONB hills of Cranborne Chase.
Fantastic bluebell woods near tiny Pamphill which lies within the National Trust Kingston Lacey estate which also offers autumn, winter and springtime trails and a circuit around the ironage Badbury Rings. The house is well worth a visit but you may need to book a slot!
Wimborne is a pretty market town offering its Tivoli Theatre for plays and cinema, its vibrant market and plenty of lovely restaurants such as The Wimborne Pig with home-produced pork and local produce. Plenty of local pubs to choose from too.
There are various nearby vineyards and one of note is English Oak Vineyard which offers tours and tastings of its award-winning wines.
A little further down the road takes you to the lovely coastline with Swanage, Studland Beach and Nature Reserve and many more.
Knoll Gardens for plants, Walford Mill Crafts for arts and crafts, Wimborne model town and the museum are among the many places to visit around and about.
