## About The Property

At Orchid House, the hardest decision may be which walking route to take first. Step outside, and open National Trust fields lie just ahead, with paths leading to Dancing Ledge, the South West Coast Path, and some of Purbeck's most spectacular sea views. This welcoming four-bedroom house in Langton Matravers sleeps 8, making it a great choice for families, walkers, and friends who like to bring their dogs.

The house has plenty of space for a full group without being so big that it loses its homely, welcoming feel. In the sitting room, a wood burner, books, DVDs and comfortable seating make it easy to put your feet up and relax. A separate dining room seats eight, while the kitchen has a smaller breakfast table and everything you need for easy self-catering. Families with little ones will appreciate the thoughtful extras, from toys and games to high chairs, booster seats and children's crockery.

A twin bedroom downstairs is useful for guests who prefer to avoid the stairs. Upstairs are three king bedrooms, including one with an en suite shower room, plus a family bathroom. The upper rooms are built into the roof, so the ceilings slope at the sides. Outside, the large lawn and patio give children room to play and everyone somewhere to sit over lunch. The garden is enclosed, although the gate bars have gaps that may not contain smaller dogs.

The village has a shop and pub, and the surrounding footpaths are a major part of the appeal. Walk to Dancing Ledge, continue along the coast towards Worth Matravers or take the inland trails across the Purbeck Hills. Swanage's beach and the ruins of Corfe Castle are a short drive away, and you'll love the family-friendly options within a few miles, including the fantastic Tank Museum, Santa Fe Fun Park, and Dorset Adventure Park. With muddy boots in the garage and a fire to come home to, Orchid House makes an excellent base for outdoor adventures in any season.
