Ilminster, Dorset and Somerset
Set in Somerset’s peaceful countryside, Atherstone Farm Cottage is a beautiful Grade II listed cottage with tons of space and charm
Atherstone Farm Cottage, Dillington Estate is a dog friendly holiday cottage.
With original oak beams and stone floors leading to the large fireplace that still retains markings from days gone by, you can hunker down on cool evenings, warming your toes in front of the cosy wood burning stove with a mug of hot chocolate and favourite holiday read.
Two sumptuous bedrooms offer a peaceful retreat to unwind at the end of the day. And for an extra touch of luxury, the free-standing roll-top bath invites you to relax and the fluffy white robes help you to get cosy after a long soak.
The beautiful grounds come to life in spring and the mature gardens provide a tranquil haven for leisurely lunches or barbecue feasts taking in the late evening sun.
The cottage has been part of the Dillington Estate since at least 1725 and the Grade II listed farmhouse and courtyard form part of the impressive 3000 acre estate. You can wander through pretty country lanes and discover woodland walks from your doorstep. We believe that all country walks should end with a hearty meal in a good pub and you are lucky to find a fine selection just a short walk or cycle from your cottage.
This cottage can also be booked with Atherstone Farmhouse for larger groups.
