These three delightful, converted stone barns (refs DBBM, DBBL and DBBK) offer good quality accommodation and a comfortable place to relax, unwind, enjoy country walking, see plenty of wildlife and are ideal for exploring Dorset and Somerset. They can be booked together to accommodate up to 18 guests. Golf and fishing are within easy driving, and yachting, canoeing and sailing are available at Halstock Reservoir. Wriggle View (ref DBBM) offers ‘upside down’ accommodation, whilst Jolliffe (ref DBBK) and Cowleaze (ref DBBL) are of the conventional design.

Visit the historic market town of Sherborne, 5 miles, with its castle, abbey and shops, or the chalk ‘Cerne Abbas Giant’. Venture further afield into the thriving county town of Dorchester, 10 miles, with Dinosaur Museum, Terracotta Warriors, Teddy Bear Museum and the world renowned Tutankhamun exhibition. Spend family time visiting Bovington Tank Museum with its fascinating collection of tanks, Monkey World, Weymouth with its picturesque 17th century harbour, Blue Flag beach and sealife centre, and then wander along the Chesil Beach and famous World Heritage Jurassic Coast, with its stunning scenery, taking in Abbotsbury Swannery and Tropical Gardens. In south Somerset are many historic houses such as Montacute House, Tintinhull and Forde Abbey. Family attractions include Yeovilton Fleet Air Arm Museum with Concorde, the Haynes Motor Museum with wonderful display of classic and vintage cars, and slightly further afield, Longleat House and Safari Park. Somerset offers many exciting venues including Glastonbury Tor, Clarks Factory Village, Cheddar Gorge and Caves and the Georgian city of Bath to name a few. Shop and pub 1½ miles.

Welcoming house
The house was a pleasure to stay in for a family occasion in the area. Very well designed, good decor, comfortable, clean with a well equipped kitchen. The host was helpful and efficient. A bar of soap in each bathroom would have been welcome! Otherwise a lovely place. Caroline

Lovely cottage: a well thought out and sympathetically converted farm building.
Lovely cottage: a well thought out and sympathetically converted farm building. We were a family of 5 so had acres of space but it would be ideal for 4 couples ... when that's allowed again :( The view from the upstairs kitchen/lounge of the sun setting behind the grazing sheep had us rushing back from our day trips to enjoy with a drink and some dramatic music! And the owners were delightful. We will almost certainly return - we would have done so with friends at New Year but they have dogs and sadly - though understandably - there's a no-dog policy (don't try it on - they do enforce it!)

The Cottage provides excellent accommodation with 3 bathrooms, large comfy beds, fabulous views and everything you need. Quirky upside down rooms but it really works for a family stay. Lovely garden and Patio area with bbq. There was nothing missing and we really had an enjoyable family gathering. Loved sitting on cushions in the window overlooking the farm in the late evening sun. Binoculars provided too! Our hosts were so very helpful and welcoming. Hope to visit again, memories made at Wriggle View Cottage August 2019. Highly recommend.
