1 Bed in Silton (oc-o32632)
Escape with your special someone to this peaceful single-level holiday home set within an orchard in the quaint village of Silton. Sleeping two people in one bedroom, it’s the perfect cosy retreat for couples to call home while they discover the wild beauty of Dorset, Somerset and Wiltshire. During the day, set off to visit the Palladian splendour of Stourhead House and Gardens where you can take a walk around the picturesque lake before marvelling at this historic property, in the care of the National Trust. Spend the evening at the traditional village pub, serving excellent beers, ciders and food, less than half a mile walk away. Why not plan a visit to Wincanton Racecourse (7.5 miles), head into Shaftesbury to visit Gold Hill (9 miles), or spend the day at Longleat House and Safari Park (10 miles). With easy access from the A303 this property is the perfect base from which to explore the surrounding area and further afield.
Step inside this charming retreat and you’ll immediately be welcomed by an open-plan lounge/kitchen/dining area with exposed beams and a stylish wood burner. Slip onto the sofa and make yourself at home while you appreciate the tranquil ambience and the natural light flooding through wide glass doors that lead out into the garden, before you head to the sleek kitchen area to whip up some dinner. Share a romantic meal at the intimate dining table and then enjoy a glass of something refreshing by the wood burner as you catch up on your favourite TV shows. At the end of the day, retire to the lodge’s beautifully-styled bedroom with king-size bed. Completing the layout, you’ll find a chic bathroom with a large shower cubicle and WC.
Open up the double glass doors from the lounge area and step out into the lodge’s charming garden, which is a lovely extension of your living space. Complete with a bistro set, charcoal BBQ and pizza oven and Chimenea it's the ideal spot to sip your morning coffee or have a cosy evening around the Chimenea with the one you love under the stars. There is also a large dog exercise field opposite the property for your four-legged friend. There is parking available for two cars.
