The Gatehouse, Wimborne, Dorset

10 - 16 7 Bedrooms 16 Dining

Pretty Georgian holiday house sleeping 16 with a games room and other cottages, for long weekends in Wimborne

Holiday Rental for Groups of Families and Friends. The Gatehouse, Wimborne, Dorset, sleeps 10 - 16 in 7 bedrooms.

Deans Court Accommodation sleeps 6 to 28 across one large house and two cottages:
The Gatehouse sleeps 16
Apple Cottage sleeps 6
Plum Cottage sleeps 4 + 2 in the Shepherd's Hut

Deans Court is just 20 minutes from numerous award winning beaches, and fantastic walks along the Jurassic Coast - yet the accommodation itself is situated two minutes walk from the lovely market town of Wimborne.

The Gatehouse is a beautifully renovated Georgian house which offers bags of space for families or a big group of friends. Although the elegant, chalky-white façade suggests a compact building, on entering The Gatehouse you will discover high ceilings, cosy nooks, sash windows and a wonderful turned wooden staircase. The front windows frame views of the mature trees of this lovely estate, together with the iron gates to Deans Court.

The house was renovated a couple of years ago to a very high standard. The owners have used a mixture of antiques and modern furniture to give a lovely feeling blending old and new, featuring vibrant kilims and bright white wooden floors, while patterned French linen blinds look great with walls painted in delicate shades of blue and grey.

The seven bedrooms are filled with painted furniture and overlook the lawned garden; traditional bathrooms are stocked with fluffy white towels and fragrant Ren products.
