A newly renovated cottage nestled between the pretty towns of Sherborne and Dorchester that’s perfect for families or couples who wish to relax in the peaceful countryside, yet still be within easy reach of thriving villages and towns.
Foxglove Cottage is one of four holiday homes set within mature and extensive grounds in the Dorset countryside. With its own private garden and homely living space, you can relax quietly and undisturbed yet still make the most of the estate’s facilities, including an outdoor swimming pool (open between May – September) and play area.
