If you're craving a little peace and quiet, Blackmoor View Cottage has your name written all over it. 🌿✨

Nestled in the Dorset countryside, this charming stone barn conversion is made for slow mornings, countryside walks and evenings spent watching the sun sink over the fields with a glass of something chilled in hand.

Inside, exposed beams, lofty ceilings and cosy interiors create the perfect retreat for two, while outside, rolling views stretch across the Blackmore Vale. Spend your days exploring Sherborne's historic streets, discovering Dorset's pretty villages, or venturing to the Jurassic Coast before returning to your own peaceful corner of the countryside.

The kind of place where doing nothing feels like the perfect plan. 💚

Tucked away in the heart of the Blackmore Vale, La Rose is the kind of peaceful hideaway made for slowing down and switching off. 🌿✨

Set within the grounds of Church House in the pretty village of West Stour, this beautifully designed annexe has everything you need for a restful escape for two – from the cosy open-plan living space with wood burner, to the sumptuous super-king bedroom and elegant shower room.

Step outside and you’re moments from everything you could want from a Dorset stay: a welcoming local pub just a one-minute stroll away, an award-winning farm shop nearby, and miles of rolling countryside waiting to be explored.

Spend your days discovering Shaftesbury’s iconic Gold Hill, wandering the historic streets of Sherborne, or simply staying put and enjoying the stillness of village life.
A romantic retreat in every sense. 💫

It’s World Ocean Day 🌊 So we thought we’d share some magical wild swimming spots in Dorset.

Save this post for the you next fancy a dip 👙

In Dorset, the ocean isn’t something you visit once a year - it’s where you dip in between cliff walks, where summer days slow down, and where the coastline feels at its most alive.

From hidden coves to clear blue shallows, here are some of the most incredible wild swimming spots along the coast:

Dancing Ledge
Lulworth Cove
Chapman’s Pool
Ringstead Bay
Osmington Mills
Kimmeridge Bay
Man O’ War Bay
Mupe Bay
Chapman’s Pool
Swanage (The Dell Quay area / sheltered sea swims)

Every one different. Every one shaped by the sea.
Today we celebrate the ocean 🩵 but here, we’re lucky enough to live alongside it every day. 🌊

A perfect countryside summer setting 🌿🍷🍇

This characterful thatched cottage feels made for slow days and long evenings... the kind where doors stay open, drinks are poured a little earlier than planned, and time moves at its own pace.

Sleeping up to six guests (and one furry friend), it’s a warm and welcoming base for families or friends to gather together and enjoy a simple escape to the countryside.

Shedrick Cottage is also in an ideal location as it sits within Dorset, but is close to the border of Somerset and Devon too ✨

Thomas Hardy will always be a big deal down here in Dorset 🎂📖

Today would’ve been his Birthday, so we’re raising a glass to his literary genius 🥂

Few writers captured the beauty, character and spirit of Dorset quite like Hardy - his novels will forever be woven in the landscapes, villages, countryside and soul of our beautiful county 🌿

A Dorset escape where the days are as full (or as slow) as you want them to be 🌿

Tucked away within 20 acres of beautiful countryside at Rudge Farm, Milkmaids Cottage is a cosy retreat made for two. Spend your mornings wandering woodland trails, your afternoons rowing across the lake or spotting herons, ducks and even the occasional otter, and your evenings curled up together after a day exploring the Jurassic Coast.

With meadows, wildlife, tennis courts, a games barn and peaceful lakeside spots all on your doorstep, it offers the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation. And when you're ready to explore further afield, Dorset favourites like West Bay, Lyme Regis, Burton Bradstock and Abbotsbury are all within easy reach.

The hardest part? Deciding whether to spend the day exploring or staying exactly where you are.

Countryside silence. Big Dorset skies. A wood-fired hot tub waiting beneath the stars.

Set on a working farm in the heart of North Dorset, Bracken is the kind of retreat that makes slowing down feel effortless. Thoughtfully designed with beautiful eco-conscious touches, underfloor heating throughout, and huge bi-fold doors framing uninterrupted views across the Blackmore Vale, every part of this stay feels connected to the landscape around it.

Spend your days walking the Wessex Ridgeway, browsing the village farm shop in nearby Ansty, or simply staying exactly where you are - cooking with local produce, lighting the fire, and soaking in the hot tub as the sun disappears behind the hills.

Simple pleasures, done beautifully 🌿
