Fern

Dorchester, Dorset

6

Dorchester, located in the South West of England, is home to Fern, one of three unique eco retreats constructed in 2020. This detached property, along with its neighbors Bracken and Bramble, is designed to the highest standards, offering stunning views and a luxurious wood-fired hot tub. With a capacity to accommodate six guests, Fern is perfect for those seeking a tranquil escape amidst North Dorset's rural beauty, situated conveniently near the Cranborne Chase & West Wiltshire Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Fern features a single-storey, open-plan layout that is both spacious and bright, enhanced by cozy under-floor heating powered by an eco-friendly ground source heat pump. Guests can enjoy cooking in a modern, well-equipped kitchen using fresh, local ingredients, and after a meal, they can relax by the wood-burning stove. The property also boasts bi-folding doors that open to a terrace and garden, where guests can unwind in the hot tub while taking in panoramic views of Bulbarrow and The Blackmore Vale.

The accommodation includes three bedrooms, each with an en-suite shower room—two furnished with king-size beds and one with twin single beds—making it an excellent choice for families or groups of friends. The nearby Wessex Ridgeway provides ample walking opportunities, and guests can explore the quaint village of Ansty, which is accessible via a peaceful lane and bridleway. Ansty features a charming farm shop, a post office, and a local pub, all within a 15-minute walk or a short 3-minute drive.

For those interested in larger group accommodations, Fern’s neighboring properties, Bracken and Bramble, are also available for booking, with Bracken accommodating six guests and Bramble four. The three retreats can be reserved together for a combined stay at Dorset Eco Retreats, subject to availability. This setup allows for a versatile and enjoyable retreat experience in the picturesque Dorset countryside.
