Blagdon Lower Barn

Martinstown, Dorchester, Dorset

Looking for a secluded countryside escape? This extensively converted barn sleeps 6 and offers a truly unique experience, surrounded by fields and located a 400m drive from the road.

You'll be stunned when you see the open-plan dining and lounge area, the high ceilings and brick arch giving a genuinely spacious feel to the room, which contains a dining table and a superb seating area with comfortable sofas, flatscreen TV and wood-burning stove. The kitchen is also in this area and is equipped with two electric ovens, a microwave, a large fridge-freezer with an ice-maker, granite work surfaces, and a dishwasher. For additional convenience, there's also a utility cloakroom with a washer/dryer and a WC. 

Head up the oak/glass staircase to the first-floor landing which overlooks the lounge and you'll find three double bedrooms with beds which can be converted to 2 singles on request. All have a TV and DVD player and two of them have en-suite shower rooms, with a separate family bathroom also on this floor.

To really immerse yourself in the beautiful countryside surroundings and take a peek at the local wildlife, you will of course want to make full use of the large garden, where you'll find outdoor furniture waiting for you in a patio area. There's also a kennel if you've brought the dog along and want to let them dry off from a muddy walk or an unplanned leap into a river! With countless walking routes accessible from the property, you won't run short of ways to explore the area.
