If you’ve been dreaming of a classic countryside escape, look no further than this 16th-century, Grade II listed cottage. Set within the Cranbone AONB, you’ll be surrounded by beautiful countryside, while the nearest pub and farm shop in Winterborne Whitechurch are just a short walk away. It’s also a great base for exploring the Dorset coast – Weymouth and Lyme Regis are within easy driving distance. Back at home, there’s a peaceful garden, an outdoor pizza oven, cosy rooms, wood burning stoves and plenty of traditional character.

If you’re looking for a rural retreat in the Dorset countryside, this charming thatched cottage surrounded by woodland more than delivers. Inside, the old beams and narrow staircases leading to four elegant bedrooms are charming. However, it’s worth noting it’s not the most accessible of homes. Spend winter evenings beside the inglenook fireplace and summers outside in the cottage gardens, complete with an egg barbecue for alfresco feasts.  Located in the quiet village of Winterbourne-Houghton, there's little nearby – but with wood by the fire at home and the bustling Blandford Forum just five miles away, you're well covered whether you want to unwind or explore.

Tucked away in the sleepy village of Dewlish, this 18th-century barn has been converted into a cosy rural retreat. Surrounded by the Dorset Hills, you’ll find easy access to beautiful walking trails and it’s just a short stroll to the local pub. It’s also a great base for exploring the Jurassic Coast with the nearest beaches just a short drive away. Back at home, there is a private patio, a shared heated pool and a games room – making this a great option for families. It’s worth noting the furnishings and decor are a little dated, but it’s well equipped with all the essentials you could need for a relaxing break.

Get far away from the madding crowd in Thomas Hardy’s Dorset with this beautiful home – it’s the perfect romantic retreat. Surrounded by woodland, relax in the hot tub with a glass of fizz (or whip up a smoothie with the blender in the kitchen), and when the sun sets, cosy up by the fire pit. There’s a hammock to unwind in as well. 

The sylvan setting can be admired through the French doors in the living room, too – keep your eyes peeled for visiting wildlife. At the end of an idyllic day, head up to bed in the treehouse-like bedroom with its honeycomb-shaped, whitewashed wood ceiling before exploring the area the following morning. 

Out and about, the market town of Blandford Forum, with its array of eateries, is a six-minute drive. Alternatively, the National Trust’s Kingston Lacy, a country house and estate near Wimborne Minster, is eight minutes in the car, while Thomas Hardy's Cottage is twenty-three minutes. Further afield, Sandbanks, with its award-winning beach and chic boutiques, is just over a thirty-five-minute ride, so there’s plenty to keep you busy here.

Nice to haves

This 200-year-old coach house has been lovingly restored into a cosy countryside retreat. Set across two floors, the bedrooms are on the ground floor, while the upper floor sitting room has everything you could need to switch off and unwind – including a wood burning stove. Head outside and you’ll find a private courtyard and a peaceful garden. Private parking is available and there’s lots to explore in this beautiful part of Dorset. Head towards the village of Piddletrenthide or adventure further afield to the Jurassic Coast.

Out in the unspoiled countryside of Cranborne Chase AONB, this Victorian house sits in red-brick splendour. It’s a five-minute drive into the centre of Blandford Forum, a charming town to stock up on groceries and perhaps pause for a cup of coffee. Though there’s plenty to keep you busy on the estate as well – wander between the grapevines of the small vineyard, or head to the private tennis court. There’s over 30 acres of woodland walks to explore too. Within an acre of private garden, this home has its own heated swimming pool, hot tub for six, gas barbecue and croquet lawn. But, if the weather isn’t on your side, you can always while away the days in the games room. Two living rooms and a conservatory offer the group plenty of space to spread out, and you’ll have the choice between a cosy crackling wood-burner or streaming sunshine from glass walls. You can still picture scullery maids bustling around in the country-chic kitchen. In keeping with the Victorian grandeur of the home, bedrooms are a plush medley of chandeliers, silk curtains and four-poster beds and the master comes with a beautiful claw-foot tub.

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.

Part of a manor that dates back to the sixteenth century, this beautiful listed barn conversion is not your average country cottage. With enough design credentials for a magazine spread, the home mixes old and new with aplomb. Gather in the grand room to see a space with cathedral-like ceilings and antler chandeliers, with pops of bright modernity from the aquamarine walls and huge pieces of artwork hanging on the walls. There are cosier spots too, including bedrooms that have been tucked up in the rafters ensuring a snug night's sleep, as well as a log-burning fire in the second living room. Comprised of two adjoining barns, the home has got enough room to seat the entire party, with two kitchens for whipping up a feast — ask ahead and the owners will provide you with eggs from the grounds' chickens. Outside, there's a private covered hot tub, a barbecue area and pretty walled gardens to explore, but beyond the gates, one of England's most beautiful counties awaits — Cranbourne Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty can be reached in less than fifteen minutes by car, as can the architecturally unique town of Blandford Forum.

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

Nintendo Wii

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. 

Rustic Hamlet

DVD Player

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

Single-Level Home

Rabbits, pheasants and foxes, oh my! Welcome to life at this cosy woodland hut, situated on the twenty-three-acre grounds of Downwood Vineyard in the Dorset countryside. 

Surrounded by towering trees and a myriad of wildlife – including an owl and an odd deer or two – this is a spot to switch off, unplug and bask in the quiet surroundings. Wake up to the sound of birdsong and pad out into the private courtyard for a morning coffee in the fresh air. In the evenings, rustle up dinner in the cute kitchen – it's compact but has everything you'll need – before sinking into the hot tub for ultimate relaxation. We could happily spend all our time bubbling away under clear skies filled with stars.

When you're not at home, the countryside is perfect for a wander and you're only a ten-minute drive from historic National Trust properties and five from the pubs and eateries in Blandford Forum. And if you fancy venturing a little further, the Jurassic Coast and the New Forest are also less than an hour away by car, perfect for day trips.

Always fantasised about being Lord or Lady of the Manor? Well, now you can be, sort of. This historic gatehouse (built in 1900) is part of a family estate, located in the Dorset village of Hinton St Mary. Recently refurbished by the owners in a modern but classic style (along with the estate’s stables, also available on Plum Guide), it's been opened up to outsiders for the very first time. We loved the balance between period features, such as the original windows, fireplace and kitchen floor, and brand new additions, like the shiny bathroom. Everything is finished in the best possible taste, with some lovely personal touches. The kitchen worktop is made from cedar from the estate, for example. The owners clearly want their new guests to feel at home, as they’re happy to accommodate needs, whims and fancies, from arranging a paid-for chef or babysitter, to offering a choice of seasonal duvets, luggage storage, locally sourced ingredients in the welcome pack and everything you’d need to bring your baby (high chair, cot, dinnerware, pram, potty, etc). The home’s location is another definite selling point. At the end of a small village lane near a cricket green and traditional pub, it’s picturesque and quaint. The nearest town is Sturminster Newton where there are shops and cafes, a great deli and butchers. This home makes a great base to explore the famous Dorset coast and countryside or simply settle back and relax by the wood-burning stove and imagine your servants are just out of sight.

The Manor Stables

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

Tucked away in a private clearing, with superb views over the local countryside, this home is small but mighty. It's aimed squarely at anyone looking to escape the rat race for a while to just soak up the soothing sights and sounds of the natural world. A converted artist's studio, it's a cosy and well-equipped home for a couple or a solo traveller – there's even room for a baby cot and a dog bed. Step inside and you'll be bowled over by how much the host has cleverly fitted into the space. With plenty of white-painted wood panelling and a romantic feel, it's kitted out with a comfy bed, a pretty shower room, a fully functioning kitchen and a little dining table. Outside, you'll find the secluded hot tub and a terrace with a barbecue and a fire pit – an ideal spot for stargazing. Just a six-minute drive to the town of Blandford Forum, with its famous Georgian architecture, shops and restaurants, you're also around half an hour from the New Forest and from Dorset's famous Jurassic Coast. 

Hop Little Bunny

Who doesn’t love a hideaway amidst the grapevines? This cosy little lodge sits in the grounds of a vineyard, so you can spend evenings sampling the local sparkling wine in the bubbling warmth of the hot tub outside. There’s also a bistro set for two out here, should you wish to take your dinner in the open air. Inside, your hideaway has a tufted velvet sofa for a spot of luxury, and a kitchen equipped with everything you need for self-catering. Big windows show off a view of rural Dorset at its best, surrounded by greenery. You’re on the edge of the Cranborne Chase AONB, a five-minute drive from the charming town of Blandford Forum where a handful of shops, cafés and restaurants await. Golfers will love the proximity to Ashley Wood golf course and if you’re packing the bike, you can hit the North Dorset Trailway. 

Two Turtle Doves

Perched on the edge of a lake, this sunny and stylish home is a real gem. There’s lots of space to spread out, including an open-plan living area that leads out to the water’s edge, and five bright bedrooms (two with a balcony). Staying on this exclusive estate, you’ll have access to some great amenities, including free paddle board, kayak, and canoe hire. And with your own private jetty, you’ll be out on the lake in no time. Other perks include a communal pool and onsite gym, plus play areas and woodland walks to keep the kids entertained. It’s a short drive from the Jurassic Coast too, so you’ll never be short of things to see and do.

 The Jetty

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.

It's hard to resist views like this. Featuring a waterfront deck that's ideal for barbecues and evening drinks – and boasting lovely panoramas, of course – this home radiates Dorset relaxation. Inside, the design is contemporary and the rooms are cosy. There's more than enough space for friends and families, including a bunk bed for little ones. You'll find it situated on a lakeside holiday estate, and there are plenty of things to do on your doorstep. From dips in the communal heated pool and workouts in the shared gym to afternoons kayaking along the resort's waterways, you couldn't ask for a better spot to embrace coastal living.

On a holiday resort in the Dorset countryside, this home is tailor-made for a memorable break with family or friends. The large terrace overlooks the lawn down to your private jetty on the lakeside, which offers opportunities for watersports. There's also a large alfresco dining area with a barbecue – though the prospect of freshly-cooked pizza at the seasonal pizza shack might be hard to ignore. If you feel like a bit of pampering, head to the spa, or explore your surroundings with a bike ride. While there's more than enough to entertain you at the resort, it's just a twenty-minute drive to the beach at Lulworth Cove.

Harbour Estate

There’s adventure in abundance at this home within a lakeside holiday park. You can launch kayaks and paddle boards from the lakeside beach, spend days playing tennis or swimming in the shared pool, or indulge in a spa session. With forest playgrounds, biking trails and a rooftop bar all onsite, it’s a great spot for families. A state-of-the-art kitchen has everything you need for self-catering and dinner can be served al fresco, on the private terrace. A wood-burner in the open living area keeps things cosy.

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

Sauna

Access to Beach

Nestled on the water’s edge, this home has relaxation at its core. Inside is comfortable and homely, while the outdoor space boasts decking and opportunities for alfresco dining – all while enjoying the lake views, naturally. With an abundance of on-site activities, you don’t need to head further afield if you don’t want to, as there’s more than enough to occupy you here. Water sports, nature trails, cycling, yoga, swimming in the communal pool or simply indulging in dinner from the on-site pizza shack – the opportunities are endless. 

Little Butterflies

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

This charming lakeside escape is the perfect blend of comfort and countryside adventure. Overlooking a serene sculpture garden, it’s perfect for long, lazy mornings, fireside evenings, and stargazing from the hot tub. A landscaped communal path on the development leads down to the water’s edge, where you’ll find a jetty and amphitheatre, ideal for launching a canoe to explore the nearby islands. While the area around the cottage is still evolving, with some nearby construction taking place during the day, the home itself is fully finished and beautifully equipped. It’s best suited to six adults and two children, offering an idyllic base for exploring Dorset’s stunning coast, woodland trails and wild open skies.

Canoe Cottage

Rooftop Terrace

High above Beaumont Village, this sun-filled home brings together sweeping views and access to the best of Silverlake’s nature-packed estate. The rooftop garden is a perch for evening drinks, while balconies off each bedroom let you sneak away with a book or soak up the morning light. There’s plenty of space inside to cook, catch up, and unwind. But the real draw is right outside your door. Swim in the outdoor pool, hire a paddleboard, hit the gym, or follow the trails by bike. It’s all here, from spa treatments to woodfired pizza, so you can do as much (or as little) as you please.

Silverlake Charm

Experience lakeside living in this stunning luxury holiday home located on a private estate in a nature reserve in Dorset. Set right on the water's edge, you’ll have wonderful views from the garden, balcony and from inside too. The sunlit expansive open-plan living area is a great place to watch the sunset. Or you can take advantage of the extensive range of communal facilities. There’s a heated infinity pool, a spa, a gym, and a rooftop bar. On top of all this, there's a tennis court, table tennis, cycling trails, woodland walks, and a lakeside beach. If you ever get time to explore the surrounding area, then the Jurassic Coast is also a short drive away.

Picturesque Estate

For those craving a countryside retreat, this charming Dorset cottage presents the ideal place to escape to. Enlivened with rustic charm and kitted out with all the amenities you could wish for, from the moment you walk through the front door, you’ll feel your shoulders drop and your stresses melt away. It’s time to unwind in style.

With its white–washed facade, slate roof and mint–green picture windows, from the outset, this place looks utterly blissful – and as we make our way through the front door, we can’t help but feel instantly at home. 

From the dark, wooden floorboards to the pendant lights of the stylish shaker kitchen, this cottage is packed with homey appeal. We particularly love the blue velvet sofa in the living area. As dusk settles, make a beeline for its snuggly depths and while the evening away over a large mug of cocoa as you contemplate the roaring fire. 

Inside you’ll also find a beautiful dining area made for sociable feasts with family and friends, three dreamy bedrooms and a bathtub – ideal for moments when a touch of ‘me time’ is needed. Simply pour yourself a large glass of red and recline into your bubbly bliss and indulge in some well–deserved R&R.

There’s a heck of a lot to love about this place, but the real piece de resistance has got to be the heated outdoor pool. Perfect for daytime and evenings alike, plunge into its crystalline waters for an invigorating dip before showering off & refuelling with a tasty treat from the kitchen. Just note that it's shared with other cottages.


Fire & Water

Free Parking

Sitting on a fantastic complex on the beautiful Beaumont Lake in Dorset, this home is ideally placed for exploring the Dorset AONB, which includes some great seaside spots such as Durdle Door. The home itself is simple and stylish, but what will make your stay special is enjoying access to the site's marvellous facilities, including a communal heated pool, shared gym and spa, plus the lake for water sports, equipment for which you can hire at the on-site activity centre.

The Piazza

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

Nestled in the picturesque Dorset countryside, this stone home is adorned with vines and hedges, making it as beautiful and charming on the outside as it is on the inside. Every window seems to look onto an equally stunning green vista – here, the countryside is never far from sight or mind. The kitchen is large and pristine, inviting for all kinds of meals, and the breakfast nook is a cosy spot to begin the day with a mug of coffee. We love the living room’s focal point – a wood burning stove – ideal for game nights or chillier evenings spent with a bottle of wine. At the end of the night, settle in the plush farmhouse-inspired bedrooms that encourage true rest and relaxation. When you’re ready to explore, the Jurassic coast’s striking beach scenery is just a thirty minutes’ drive away, while you’ll find local pubs and countryside walks even nearer by.
