Dorset Rural Country Retreat, 6 Acres, Hot Tub, Sleeps 20, near Jurassic Coast

Located between Dorchester & Bournemouth in Winterborne Kingston, Abbots Court rural retreat has been described by The Guardian as "A luxurious but un-stuffy country retreat".

Set alone in 6 acres of lawn and woodland offering total seclusion from the outside world, the whole place is yours exclusively from start to finish.
As you enter the house you are met with a stunning sweeping staircase taking you up to the first floor. Six beautiful bedrooms decorated in modern Farrow & Ball, all with private en suite bathrooms, luxurious bedding and stunning views.
Bedrooms 5 & 6 can also be used as inter-connecting- perfect if you have younger children staying.
For the older teens, the second floor is ideal with its self contained kitchenette, lounge, 2 bedrooms and large bathroom.
There is one ground floor bedroom- ideal for those who would rather not have to climb stairs...

The lounge boasts large chesterfield sofas with a roaring fire and doors out onto the patio and grounds.
Moving to the Dining room with enough seating for all your guests you can make this room as grand or casual as you desire....Why not have pre or after dinner drinks in your own lounge bar, also with open fire, decorated in vivid colours with an impressive collection of gin bottles...
The large open plan country kitchen with butler sink, double fridge, kitchen table and breakfast bar has everything you need during your stay...

With acres of woodland, BBQ, GOZNEY Pizza oven, table tennis, wood fired hot tub and loads of outdoor garden games we think we have thought of everything for the perfect rural getaway...
