Summary
Smashing little one bedroom cottage that is well presented, nicely decorated with pleasant comfy furnishings set in a great touring location.
Description
The accommodation is a self contained wing of the owners’ house, which was a former Sherborne Castle estate workers’ cottage, believed to date back to 1640. Located in the attractive village of Thornford, you are only miles from Sherborne in north west Dorset.
The property has been tastefully renovated and is well furnished, incorporating an inglenook fireplace with a warming wood burning stove in the open plan living area, a cosy double bedroom, and a superb roll top bath and separate shower cubicle in the first floor bathroom. The cottage is close to open countryside, offering many lovely walks, with the local shop and pub both a short stroll away.
There's even a ‘halt’ on the nearby railway, which can conveniently take you to the lovely city of Bath. A short drive takes you to Sherborne's castles and abbey, as well as the ancient hilltop town of Shaftesbury, the Fleet Air Arm Museum at Yeovilton, and several National Trust properties.
A cosy, romantic village base from which to explore this lovely area, at any time of the year!

#57 The accommodation really was fantastic.
Lots to see and do in a beautiful part of our country, a bonus that our dog could come with us too! The cottage had the most amazing bath, and it was a lovely surprise that the owners supplied some pampering items such as luxury bubble bath, and body lotion. Lovely cottage and lovely owners who were out to make your holiday the best it could be. Excellent. I would go back tomorrow if I could. The accommodation really was fantastic.
