We are delighted to introduce this beautiful artisan cottage. The owner has decorated the cottage lovingly, with particular attention to detail - all of the paintings inside the cottage are by the owner's fair hand!   Perhaps one of the biggest attractions is free use of the owners 36ft swimming pool (at set times in the warmer months). Outdoor facilities include a pool house with shower, W.C and decking area. This is a real treat after a busy day exploring, or perhaps you may like to spend some of the day pool side with your loved one!

This newly converted 1-bedroom cottage boasts many features to ensure you have a memorable stay.  The spacious bedroom with beautiful feature bed has been interestingly decorated and benefits from a lovely en suite shower room.  The bright and airy lounge has a small log burner which adds to the cosy romantic ambience, and the galley style, fully equipped kitchen is well appointed for your ease of use.

The cottage has private off-road parking for 2 cars and wheelchair access.  It also has a medium sized secure garden and one small well behaved dog is welcome at no extra cost.

Stable cottage can be found in the rural Hamlet of Chantmarle, just outside the town of Dorchester.  The name Chantmarle translates from Norman French as 'the song of Blackbirds' and whilst standing in the garden of Stable Cottage looking out on to Dorset's beautiful rolling hills, you can certainly hear why!

The first thing that strikes when you arrive at Stable Cottage is the lovely peaceful setting. The tiny Hamlet of Chantmarle has just a handful of pretty thatched cottages that used to service the Elizabethan Manor house, from which the Hamlet takes its name.  That being said, the Roman Town of Dorchester is only a 15-minute drive away, and the town of Yeovil just 20 minutes. You will always find things to entertain you within a short distance.  The countryside in this area is truly stunning - it's essential to remember your walking boots!

Stable cottage is perfect for those that want to get away from it all, and you'll still find amenities in the surrounding area such as beaches, artisan eateries, boutique shopping and more. Should the beautiful countryside that envelopes the cottage inspire you to start painting, the owner is available to give guests a painting lesson for a small fee. 

Facilities:

1 bedroom (G/Floor).  King, with en suite shower room + WC.  Lounge, Smart TV, log burner.  Kitchen, elec. oven, hob, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine, fridge (ice box), breakfast table for 2.

Swimming pool with pool house, changing room area, shower, W.C, decking area, sun loungers and towels available. The swimming pool is available from 1st June through to 31st September.  The swimming pool is for private use for guests of Stable Cottage at flexible allocated time slots.  Time slots are Monday to Friday - 10am to 2pm,  Saturday and Sunday - 10am to 12pm and 5pm to 7pm.  If you would like different time slots, please contact the owner upon arrival.

Travel cot available on request, WIFI. One small well behaved dog welcome.  Linen and towels available.  Owners close by.
