    “I rented South Lodge as a brief getaway for my partners' birthday along with her daughter.”

    When we arrived there was a fresh cake, milk in the fridge and honey from the owners' beehives so we could have a cuppa after the drive, lovely! The cottage was very nicely presented and well appointed with very good quality items and appliances. Everything was squeaky clean too. My partners' daughter loved her room in the upstairs converted roof space with the spiral staircase, though be warned it's not suitable for people with mobility issues or drunks; getting stuck or having a fall is a ...

    When we arrived there was a fresh cake, milk in the fridge and honey from the owners' beehives so we could have a cuppa after the drive, lovely! The cottage was very nicely presented and well appointed with very good quality items and appliances. Everything was squeaky clean too. My partners' daughter loved her room in the upstairs converted roof space with the spiral staircase, though be warned it's not suitable for people with mobility issues or drunks; getting stuck or having a fall is a possibility if you're not careful! All in all a lovely stay, marred only by unpredictable weather, but that's just the way it goes sometimes in England. We'd happily stay there again.

The property

Hazelbury Bryan 0.6 miles.

Found at the edge of the village of Hazelbury Bryan is South Lodge, an annexe cottage in the idyllic county of Dorset.

A stylish base for a relaxing holiday, this area would be perfect for those who love to get outdoors as there are some wonderful landscapes to behold nearby.

A chandelier lamp shade sits above the dining table in the centre of the open-plan living space, a carefully furnished and decorated room with eye-catching pieces all around you, from the barn-style wood doors, to the tapestry wall-hanging, and the antique wooden furniture to the state of the art woodburning-stove.

At the other end of the room is the sleek kitchen with marble counter tops, complete with a good range of appliances.

The ground floor is host to the conservatory with plush seating so you can enjoy the sun even on a brisk winter morning, and the king-size bedroom, featuring bold walls of burnt orange and olive green, giving it a mediterranean feel.

Travel up the ornate spiral staircase up to discover the rest of the sleeping arrangements comprising of a twin bedroom in the eaves of the property with dormer and velux windows to let the natural light flood in.

Enjoy a private patio outside, as well as the use of part of the owners' beautifully-kept garden on a warm day.

The village of Hazelbury Bryan is a traditional village, still home to thatched buildings and a parish church dating back to the 15th century, you can make use of the pub and shop for your essentials, but for more choice head over to Sherborne for a bustling high street as well as Sherborne Castle & Gardens, the stately mansion of the famous Sir Walter Raleigh, a favourite of Queen Elizabeth I, with lavish furnishings, fine art and a huge garden and lake to marvel at, this is a great day out.

Closer to home is the brilliant Badger Watch Dorset, a unique experience allowing you to see these creatures in their natural habitat at night, arrive at 6:30pm and stay for a few hours, you'll not only see badgers but pheasants, foxes and rabbits, a great experience for all!

South Lodge is a property with a unique and quirky style where you can enjoy the area of Dorset.

About the location

HAZELBURY BRYAN

Sherborne 10 miles; Yeovil 15 miles; Bournemouth 25 miles

A tranquil, rural village sat just outside of the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Hazelbury Bryan is a small, traditional village with thatched buildings, a parish church dating back prior to the 15th century and a popular pub that was built in 1750, it also boasts a Spar shop. In the village there is also a field with cricket and football facilities as well as a children's play area. Hazelbury Bryan proves itself to be a great base for exploring the outdoors with the Dorset and Cranborne Chase Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty easily accessible, offering great opportunities for walkers and cyclists with great views to accompany it. The village is rather secluded, with the nearest well-stocked town being Sherborne 10 miles away, it offers a good selection of shops and places to eat. If you fancy a trip to the coast, visit Bournemouth around 25 miles south, a delightful town with so much to see and do.
