The property

Little Haven is a beautifully presented semi-detached holiday home set in the owners grounds offering partial rural views and if you take a short walk down the adjacent bridleway you could see the bright lights of Bournemouth and the Isle of Wight on a clear day.

It is close to Blandford Forum with local shops, pubs and restaurants in the Cranborne Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Dorset. Little Haven is a romantic dwelling boasting a stunning, open-plan interior completed by a sumptuous double bedroom, modern bathroom and an enclosed patio area making it a fabulous choice for couples looking to explore all Dorset has to offer with their beloved canine companion. Private parking is on the drive outside the home and entrance is then into a spacious hall with storage for coats and shoes.

The modern shower room can be found at the end of the hall.

The inviting bedroom is to the left with coordinating soft furnishings as well as kingsize bed, matching furniture and to the right is the modern open plan living with large wall mounted TV and a cosy sofa to snuggle up in front of having cooked a delicious meal in the newly fitted kitchen with fridge, freezer, dishwasher and electric and hob and enjoyed it on the dining table and chairs in front of the French doors whilst a couple of dogs play safely outside. If you choose to tear yourself away from this comfortable home there is so much locally on offer with a whole host of walking, cycling and hiking opportunities for those looking to experience the great outdoors.

Explore the nearby town of Blandford Forum where you can walk the North Dorset Trailway, discover The Blandford Town Museum and ply golf at Ashley Wood Golf Club as well as attractions within easy reach to include Longleat wildlife and safari park, Stourhead mansion or the National Trust site of Kingston Lacy.

Take a scenic drive to visit the coast at Hamworthy Beach which looks out over to Brownsea Island; the more adventurous of you can take to the open water with paddle boards, high speed boats and kayaks.

Be sure to trek the coastal path along the Jurassic coast where iconic sights such as Durdle Door and the idyllic Lulworth Cove await, other notable attractions include Bovington Tank Museum, Monkey Work and the Great Dorset Steam Fair held at the end of August.

This is an all year round holiday home where you can’t fail to relax and enjoy yourself whatever the occasion.

About the location

BLANDFORD FORUM

Thornicombe 2.7 miles; Child Okeford 6.5 miles; Moors Valley Country Park & Forest 17.9 miles.

Blandford Forum is a market town in Dorset, England, situated by the River Stour. Notable for its Georgian architecture, most of the town was rebuilt in the 18th century after it was destroyed by a fire in 1731. King George II made a donation to rebuild the town centre with designs from local architects John and William Bastard. The Blandford Georgian Fayre is an annual event held in the first week of May and celebrates its Georgian heritage, with presentations, historical re-enactments and music and dancing. One of the town’s biggest events takes place on the late Bank Holiday weekend, the Great Dorset Steam Fair. A largely colourful festival with over 2,000 exhibits and an old time steam funfair. Offering a wide selection of independent store, supermarkets, pubs, restaurants, cafés and a Georgian tearoom. So much to visit within this quaint town and makes for a wonderful tourist attraction, whatever the season.
