The entrance hallway features beautiful wooden flooring, and a stairwell to the first floor. Off this space awaits an attractive reception room with original wood flooring and french doors leading to a rear patio and the garden. This relaxing and inviting space features antique storage pieces, a deep seat matching armchair and sofa set, a writing desk and TV with streaming services available.



At the other end of the ground floor is a superb triple aspect kitchen dining space. The white finished kitchen is beautifully designed with granite worktops surrounding an island with breakfast bar and high stools, and plenty of integrated storage. There's also a wine fridge and all the kitchen equipment you'll need for home cooking.



Also off the kitchen is a dedicated utility room with a washer dryer unit, belfast sink, and closet WC.



The bright dining space off the kitchen overlooks the rear garden and patio, and showcases a large wooden table set for 8 people to enjoy memorable meals together in a truly stunning setting.



Upstairs are four bedrooms, two on each end of the cottage, with a long blue decorated hallway with windows overlooking the road front side of the cottage.



The master ensuite features a super king bed in a generous-sized, light and airy room overlooking the garden, with a stunning pale paisley patterned wallpaper throughout. There's a substantial built-in wardrobe with travel cot stowed for little ones, bedside cabinets, a floor standing mirror, plus a dressing table, stool and mirror.



The modern ensuite inside the master has parquet flooring underfoot, a walk-in quadrant rainfall shower, a bath tub, granite top vanity basin, toilet, and heated towel rail.



Next door is a lovely twin single bedroom, with two single sized wooden beds, and a chest of drawers for storage. The room is decorated in an early aviation wallpaper, and is ideal for children and teens.



At the other end of the upstairs are two further bedrooms, the first is the Tulip Room, decorated with delightful green and red floral wallpaper. The kingsize Victorian iron frame bed sits opposite a built-in wardrobe with plenty of hanging space, plus a stunning dark wood dressing table with oval mirror and lamp.



The forth and final bedroom is a double room, with a white finished iron bed frame, bedside cabinets and lamps either side, and a further chest of drawers — with a charming rabbit pattern wallpaper, and a garden view through the cottage windows.



Also on the first floor is a brand new family shower room in black & white tones, with parquet flooring, a generous walk-in rainfall shower with crittall style screen, toilet, towel rail, and vanity unit with a hanging mirror above.



Outside, guests can enjoy a magnificent layered country garden, with a lawn, patio areas, and a rich tapestry of plants, shrubs and trees — perfect for relaxing in after a day exploring The New Forest or The Cranborne Chase. There's an outdoor dining set with 8 chairs, and a wooden bench on the opposite side.



Up a few steps to the rear of the garden is a hot tub, with enough space for all the family, in a tranquil elevated position overlooking the garden and cottage.
