In the heart of Frome, this Georgian home blends period character with a sense of calm. Light streams across tall windows, a roll-top bath invites slow evenings, and every detail is designed for comfort. Outside, cobbled streets lead to artisan markets, bookshops, and cafés where you can spend hours browsing or people-watching. Day trips open up to Somerset’s treasures, from Bath’s Roman spas to the gardens of Stourhead. Evenings are for intimate dinners in town or lingering over a glass of wine at home. It’s a place for romantic getaways or restful escapes, where history, culture, and quiet luxury come together.

Timeless in Frome

This traditional cottage is located in the picturesque village of Shillingstone, surrounded by an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Tucked away down a country lane, an eight-minute stroll will take you to the local pub, and you’ll find walking trails aplenty nearby. The home itself is set up for all seasons, with a wood-burner to keep you cosy in the colder months, and a small garden for alfresco meals when it’s warm. The stairs here are steep, so the home won’t suit everyone. We think it’s ideal for a family or small group of friends wanting a comfortable base from which to explore the Dorset countryside, towns, villages.

Shillingstone Cottage

With its sweeping lake views, private jetty, and outdoor kitchen made for long, lazy evenings, this home delivers luxury with a laid-back, family-friendly feel. If we can drag you indoors, you’ll find an open-plan living space and a lovely airy feel. Younger guests (and the young at heart) will love the dedicated games room, while the hot tub and pizza oven on the deck promise memorable moments under the stars. Whether you're gathering with friends, escaping with family, or celebrating something special, this home is a natural host – relaxed, refined and made for good times.

 The Robin's Nest

A cosy lodge made from a shipping container, this is the ideal place for a couple's retreat. It's packed with character (including a log burner), and though the owners live next door, privacy shouldn't be an issue. The enclosed patio is an absolute highlight. With a fire pit, pizza oven, and a variety of seating, a great time in the great outdoors is all but guaranteed. We also can't get enough of the countryside views. Scenic walks are right on the doorstep, making it ideal for pets. You're further away from the beach and other conveniences here – Bournemouth is about an hour away – but Shaftesbury is within easy driving distance.

Southwest Serenity

This rural hideaway in the Dorset countryside consists of not one, but three separate cottages, so gather your family and friends for a group getaway to remember. Up to twenty guests can stay here – perfect if you’re celebrating a special occasion. We love that each cottage has its own lounge, kitchen, and dining area, which means there’s plenty of space to spread out and do your own thing. The games room is great for getting everyone together and the shared courtyard is a scenic place to socialise – surrounded by farmland, you’ll feel nicely secluded here. For days out, we recommend Dorchester (home of Roman ruins and a thriving high street) or heading further afield to discover the Jurassic Coast. 

 Three Doors Farm

Hidden deep in the heart of Dorset, this remote semi-detached bungalow is ideal for families or friend groups looking to get off the grid. It's also particularly suited to equestrians, with a full suite of facilities available for any horses that might be accompanying you. Indoors, you'll find a charming and capacious living area, a narrow but fully stocked kitchen, two cosy bedrooms, and a bathroom with its own rolltop bath. Outside, the enclosed garden is perfect for letting little ones run free, while the grown-ups can relax on the outdoor furniture. While this home is certainly tucked away, you'll still be twenty minutes from storied towns like Sherborne and Dorchester, or forty minutes from the coastal town of Weymouth.

Hardy Stable

Sat snug in delightful Dorset, this cosy cottage is here to give you a taster of that famous British country lifestyle – and from the moment you lay eyes on the place, we promise you’ll fall instantly in love.

Neighbouring a row of other cottages, this home boasts a white–washed facade with pretty mint–green picture windows, drawing inspiration from its idyllic surroundings, and as we wander inside, the home’s endearing appeal continues to grow. From the wood burning stove with its picturesque, open–brickwork surround to the rustic–style shaker kitchen, this place feels like the dwellings of a gentleman farmer. Natural oak furnishings, doors and floors instantly warm the place up, meanwhile the soothing colour scheme of earthy neutrals and occasional blues creates a sense of calm.

We could spend hours just cosied up by the fire with a pot of tea and a huge slice of cake, but the azure depths of the heated, shared outdoor pool are enough to tempt even the most indoorsy types to venture into the garden. Enwreathed by a backdrop of succulent green saplings, when the sun is shining, you couldn’t wish for a more beautiful spot to soak up the rays. 

Outside, you’ll also find a neatly–manicured garden with perfectly–pruned shrubs and blooms, and a wonderful children’s play area – ideal for those with excitable little ones joining them on their stay. 

Peeling yourself away from your snuggly setup won’t be easy, but if you can muster the motivation to explore a little, be sure to venture into Dorset's county town. Landmarks such as the Roman Town House and Amphitheatre are well worth seeing, and of course, there are plenty of bars, restaurants and cafes to keep you suitably fuelled for your adventures.


Tea & Cake

Spend your mornings watching the wildlife such as pheasants and rabbits in the garden of this home with its peaceful location. After a stroll in 24 acres of woodland and rolling hills, relax in your private hot tub with a glass of wine – we’d be on cloud nine. Later cosy up inside with the faux fur throws and then cook a meal in the modern kitchen or order a takeaway. If you prefer to eat out, the market town of Blandford Forum, with its array of eateries is a five-minute drive. In the daytime, you can walk there too through a path of beautiful meadows and woods. Or play a round at the local golf club, a fifteen-minute saunter away. For those who prefer to unwind on the beach, Durdle Door, with its natural limestone arch, is just over a thirty-five minute drive.

Wood Anemone

This picturesque, Grade II-listed cottage set within the grounds of a 19th-century mansion is full of surprises. Designed by eminent architect Benjamin Ferrey, it features characterfully towering chimney stacks and a charming redbrick facade. So far, so traditional. But step inside and we think you'll do a double-take. The interior is a contemporary design haven, with bold colour choices (we love the lavender dresser in the living room and the playful candy-coloured chairs in the kitchen) and stunning modern artwork (say hello to Michael Caine as you sashay through the kitchen). Large windows let light flood right in, and make every colour pop in a joyful way. There are thoughtful, almost-kitsch touches everywhere you look - the neon disco ball cocktail glasses on the gilded drinks trolly, the flamingo leg table lamp in the kitchen, the silver graffiti slogan on the royal-blue dresser in the master bedroom and the cute zebra-print cushions in the twin room. And it's not often we say the downstairs loo is a real highlight in a home, but check out this one with the retro cassette wallpaper and you'll see what we mean. The home's private terrace is the perfect place to give those disco glasses a whirl (might we suggest a Mai-Tai?), and the enormous, immaculate shared gardens are waiting to be explored. Set in the heart of the Dorset countryside, the dramatic Jurassic Coast is about 30 minutes away, and the magnificent cathedral city of Dorchester about a 20-minute drive.

Chimney Stack

If you’re looking to experience the magic of the English countryside, this 17th-century thatched cottage delivers the perfect solution. Nestled in the little town of Winfrith, it’s just a five-minute drive to the Jurassic Coast and some of the most beautiful spots in Dorset. There’s also a village shop and a pub within walking distance and you’ll find private parking alongside the cottage. Inside, the rooms are cosy, classic and full of charm. There’s a fireplace in the living room along with board games for relaxing evenings at home. You’ll also have access to a little garden with a barbecue for warm weather days. 

Rose of the Heart

Situated on a holiday park in West Dorset, this family-friendly home overlooks the lake and provides comfortable spaces for the whole group to kick back and relax. Outside, there’s a large deck with lounge seating and although there isn’t an alfresco dining table, the kitchen diner’s sliding doors open wide for an indoor-outdoor living experience. Guests staying here have access to a range of communal amenities, from forest playgrounds to a spa. And if you’d like to explore a little, rent bicycles for a ride around the surrounding area or jump in the car and take the twelve-minute drive to Eweleaze Beach.

Ivy & Sage

Nestled deep in the Blackmore Vale in Dorset, this quaint cottage is the perfect base for a country escape. Rain or shine, you'll find a cosy spot to relax, whether that's on the patio, in the bright conservatory, or beside the woodburning stove. We expect younger guests will love sleeping up in the gables, accessed via a charming spiral staircase, where they can enjoy views of the surrounding countryside. But you're not here to stay at home – you're an hour's drive from the South Coast, and the market town of Dorchester is just thirty minutes away.
