Bracken is a stunning eco retreat located in Dorchester, Dorset, within the picturesque South West of England. Nestled on a working farm, this accommodation offers expansive views of Bulbarrow and The Blackmore Vale, making it an ideal getaway for nature enthusiasts. The retreat is one of three unique, detached properties built to high standards in 2020, featuring modern amenities and eco-friendly heating solutions, including under-floor heating powered by a ground source heat pump.

The spacious, open-plan design of Bracken is all on one ground floor, providing a cozy atmosphere for guests. It comfortably accommodates up to six people in three bedrooms, with two king-size beds and a twin room, each equipped with its own en-suite shower room. The inviting living area includes a wood-burning stove for colder evenings, while bi-folding doors open to a terrace where guests can enjoy stargazing from their private wood-fired hot tub.

Outside, the terrace and garden boast breathtaking rural views, enhancing the serene experience of staying at Bracken. The location offers endless walking opportunities, particularly with the Wessex Ridgeway nearby. Guests can also take a leisurely 15-minute walk or a quick 3-minute drive to the village of Ansty, where they can find a charming farm shop, a post office, and a local pub, adding to the convenience of the retreat.

In addition to Bracken, the neighboring properties, Fern and Bramble, can also be booked, accommodating six and four guests respectively. This allows for larger groups to enjoy a memorable stay together in the beautiful Dorset countryside. The combination of luxury, comfort, and stunning natural surroundings makes Bracken an excellent choice for family vacations or gatherings with friends.
