Visitors to the historic village of Minterne Magna will be enchanted by the beautiful Minterne Gardens. Nestled in a picturesque Himalayan valley, the gardens are a haven of tranquillity, with snowdrops, daffodils, bluebells and hydrangeas ensuring bursts of colour throughout the year. Small lakes, waterfalls and streams can be enjoyed from the walking trails, while the impressive collection of Himalayan rhododendrons and azaleas are a joy. Guests have complementary access during their stay. Rebuilt in 1903, Minterne House was home to notable figures such as Sir Winston Churchill and Admiral Robert Digby. Personal tours can be arranged by prior request. In addition, the Minterne Estate hosts a range of events throughout the year. Just 2 miles away in the village of Cerne Abbas, you can visit the famous hillside giant, while the county town of Dorchester offers plenty to see and do, and Sherborne features two castles and a striking abbey (both within 10 miles). This property is part of the Minterne Estate and is set within a tranquil walled garden. A private entrance door gives access into this characterful semi-detached property. Once inside, you’ll find a useful boot room, ideal for leaving your kit after a day spent exploring. Just next door is a spacious lounge complete with inviting sofa and a TV so you can enjoy your favourite shows. Also on this floor is a pretty twin bedroom with en-suite bathroom. Heading upstairs, you’ll find the remaining two bedrooms, both super king-size. One room has an en-suite bathroom and the other has a shower room just opposite. Completing the accommodation is a striking open plan lounge/kitchen/diner where high ceilings really add to the sense of space. Enjoy leisurely meals around the table or light the wood burner, sit back and relax. From the ground floor lounge, doors lead out to the walled garden. Here you can enjoy your private hot tub, or perhaps light up the BBQ and dine al fresco on the patio. A connecting door gives access to the shared swimming pool (available from April until the end of September) and tennis court, and next to the pool you will find a fabulous festival tent for shade. You will have a daily allocated two-hour slot, between 10am - 4pm, for sole use of the pool and tennis court.
Short breaks may still be available.
