Violet Cottage

 

Open plan sitting/dining room with kitchen area. First floor: Double bedroom. Bathroom/WC.

Set in the beautiful rolling countryside bordering Devon and Somerset these charming Dorset cottages enjoy a courtyard setting with the owners' elegant farmhouse previously part of the historic Forde Abbey Estate. Cosy and well appointed (including Wi-Fi connection) they share 8 acres of lovely grounds home to barn owls and abundant wildlife and offering visitors ample of space in which to relax and unwind. Children will love the play area with its trampoline slides swings and climbing frame and there is a pond with carp to fish as well as a bubbling stream (unfenced toddlers beware!).

A wonderful array of places of interest and visitor attractions are easily accessible – Barrington Court and Montacute House are among the National Trust properties within an easy drive the Abbotsbury Swannery is well worth a visit and Forde Abbey and Gardens and the Cricket St Thomas Wildlife Park are both found nearby. The West Dorset Heritage Coast lies 10 miles away offering superb walking with breathtaking views as well as opportunities for fossil hunting. The coastal towns and villages invite exploration – pretty Lyme Regis with its famous Cobb Bridport with its lively street markets and the bustling waterfront at West Bay (once called Bridport Harbour) brimful of family fun and activities. Much of the West Dorset countryside setting for Thomas Hardy's celebrated novels such as 'Far from the Madding Crowd' and 'Tess of the d'Urbervilles' is an area of outstanding natural beauty dotted with picturesque villages many with welcoming country inns and home to numerous restaurants serving the excellent local cuisine. Village shops and pubs ¼ mile.

    " Nice surroundings and child-friendly. Owners very pleasant and places of interest within reasonable distance. "


    " This was our second visit to Bere Farm and we were not disappointed about our return. We had a very relaxing time and enjoyed some lovely, long walks with our dog, who also enjoyed his return. The milk in the fridge and the flowers in the cottage were a very welcoming guesture and just shows how caring the owners are about making their holiday makers feel welcome. The owners dog is welcoming too, but is very well trained, so does not enter the cottage, even when invited to do so. "


    " I would happily recommend a stay on Bere Farm. This was my 3rd visit. If you are looking for a relaxing break in beautiful surroundings, with many walks, very friendly and helpful owners, great animals and children, then this is the place for you. Excellent value for money and not far from many good day trips like Lyme Regis and Cricket St Thomas. "


    " The cottage and surroundings are just wonderful - very relaxing. "


    " We have just returned from having a very relaxing weekend at Violet Cottage, we were made to feel very welcome and the cottage was very attractive and comfortable. The surrounding countryside is stunning, and we went on many walks accompanied by the two adorable labradors Tiggy and Poppy, whom we fell in love with. The cottage is in an ideal position for visiting other areas. "

    " The weekend spent at Violet Cottage in March was very relaxing. The cottage was very cosy with everything you needed and beautiful surrounding countryside. The two family Labradors Tiggy and Poppy were a joy to walk each morning and made our stay a very happy one. Hopefully we shall return soon! "

    Mrs P


    " Wonderful peace and quiet. Lovely location within easy reach of many attractions. "

    Mr W


    " We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday despite the bad weather! Lovely hosts and friendly atmosphere made it all enjoyable and there is plenty to do locally in the (unending) rain! "

    Mrs A


    " Beautiful cottage really friendly owners (Vicki and Tim) and great walks from the door accompanied by Poppy and Tiggy the Labradors (much missed already!). Lovely touch to have fresh flowers in the lounge and a pint of milk in the fridge for a much needed cup of tea on arrival and some cider if something stronger was required! Is a good location for travelling to Devon Somerset and Dorset so you get to see all sights with relative ease. I would recommend a fortnight at the very least due to all the things to do and see. Cannot stress enough how welcome we were made to feel and how instantly relaxed we were. Places not to be missed whilst there....Lulworth Cove : Durdle Door Lyme Regis Charmouth Monkey World Cricket St Thomas Wildlife Park and of course Perry's Cider Mill! "

    Mr E


    " This holiday was about relaxing in beautiful scenic surroundings I would strongly recommend it for recharging the batteries and for spotting wildlife and unusual birds. A great spot for doing as little or as much as you like and with many places of interest and seaside resorts on your doorstep. The accommodation is a lovely cosy farm cottage full of character and history. "

    Mrs D


    " Bere Farm is a haven so quiet and relaxing. "
