Follow the quiet cul-de-sac to the driveway, and you'll find a detached house with a secluded, partially walled garden, generous rooms, and several places to escape with a book. Yet Wareham Quay, its pubs and independent shops are only a short walk away. Sleeping 10 across four bedrooms and an additional day room with a sofa bed, this holiday house suits extended families and friends who enjoy being together without being in each other’s pockets. The kitchen has an Aga for winter stays, an electric oven and gas hob, plus a breakfast table for the first coffee of the day. A separate dining room seats ten for proper group meals, with a flower-filled conservatory alongside it. The main lounge opens onto the terrace and has a Smart TV, electric fire and a selection of DVDs and music. Downstairs, the day room is a real bonus: part library, part games room, and part quiet workspace, with French doors to the lawn and a double sofa bed when needed. Four bedrooms include a superking, a double, and two twins. The split-level layout separates sleeping and living areas, though it does mean steps between parts of the house. There's a family bathroom with a bath and separate power shower, another shower room and a cloakroom WC. Outside, the garden has flower borders, lawn, a generous patio for barbecues and a sheltered bench under the veranda. It's not fully secure for dogs, and five steep steps connect the patio and lawn, although another route is available. Walk to Wareham Quay for lunch by the River Frome, explore the old Saxon walls or head into the Purbeck countryside for cycling and coastal walks. Corfe Castle, Studland and Swanage make easy outings, and you can also enjoy attractions like Monkey World, the Tank Museum, and Dorset Adventure Park. Back at the house, the garden awaits for a lazy supper in the long summer evenings, and a quieter room is always available for anyone who wants a little peace. ## Facilities - **Dog Friendly:** Two dogs welcome; £25 each. - **Accessibility:** Split-level bungalow over three levels; internal steps and five steep steps from patio to lawn, with alternative garden route. - **WiFi:** Yes. 515 Mbps download / 71 Mbps upload. - **Dining Room:** Separate dining room seats 10; breakfast table in kitchen. - **Sitting Room:** Main lounge and separate day room/library with work desk and games.
