Church Cottage - An idyllic and charming thatched cottage.
Church Cottage is an attractive, thatched cottage nestling proudly next to the church in this friendly and popular Dorset village. The cottage has been carefully and beautifully furnished with each room lovingly dressed with eclectic art which perfectly compliments the stylish hand chosen furniture. The generous sitting room is the perfect space in which to unwind with bookshelves offering an extensive library for guests to enjoy whilst relaxing in front of the gas log fire on the sumptuous sofas.
