The enclosed cottage garden includes a patio area with garden furniture, perfect for enjoying the sun or dining al fresco. The property's modern presentation and desirable location make it a popular choice among discerning guests, named after the traditional 72-pint barrel used at the local Devenish Brewery.

For outdoor enthusiasts, the Isle of Portland, a haven for water sports lovers, is a short drive away.

A 20-minute drive leads to Abbotsbury, a picturesque village known for its Swannery, where guests can walk through a colony of nesting Mute Swans.

Abbotsbury's historic charm, nestled among Ridgeway hills, inspired the works of Dorset's famous writer Thomas Hardy. Visitors can explore St. Catherine’s Chapel, St. Nicholas Church, Chesil Beach, and sub-tropical gardens within walking distance from the town center. A hike to Abbotsbury Castle, an Iron Age hillfort, offers stunning views of the surrounding scenery.
