This stylish, contemporary former milking parlour with outstanding rural views provides the perfect accommodation and setting for a family gathering or relaxing couples break in this beautiful part of Dorset.
Cleverly converted from an ancient cart shed/log barn and mid-century milking parlour, Hoods provides bright, contemporary, light filled accommodation with an open-plan living/dining/kitchen area, utility room, cloakroom, family bathroom and two bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room. With wonderful far reaching views across the Marshwood Vale including local landmark Colmer’s Hill, you can experience some of the best uninterrupted views of Dorset.
Hoods is a place to gather, whether you are seeking a bolthole to gather your thoughts whilst you relax and recharge, or as a place to gather with friends and cook and share long lazy meals and chats around the table or gazing across the landscape.
Sitting within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty at Kingsland Farm, there is plenty of wildlife to experience and enjoy when relaxing on the large decked terrace, be it the tawny owls, pheasants, roe deer, badgers or numerous other local species.
Additional accommodation can be booked (subject to availability) at neighbouring Loaf.
Additional Information:
Children and infants welcome. Travel cot and high chair available on request (please provide your own cot linen).
Two well-behaved dogs welcome (additional charge). Please do not allow dogs on the beds or furniture. A dog crate for up to a large Labrador sized dog is available upon request.
Please note that instead of a hamper awaiting you at the property, a voucher will be provided to be used at the local farm shop.
Please note that access to the second bedroom is two steps. Access to the master bedroom does not have a handrail due to the construction of the walls.
Hoods is on a working farm. We have flocks of hens and bantams plus cockerels. They do roam free range hence us asking you to keep your dog on a lead going to and from the car.
There are facilities for washing your dog in a barn near the parking area - there is a dedicated dog bath with hose and towels are supplied.
Private catering can be arranged prior to your stay with Constance at hello@concooks.com or take away catering from Dorshi .

Our second time staying at Hood’s and it was just as lovely as the first. The hamper once again was outstanding and enjoyed by everyone. We managed to experience some sunshine with lovely day trips to Charmouth, Lyme Regis and Cogden beach. However Hood’s is somehow even nicer in the miserable weather as it’s so warm and cosy! A relaxing week in this special home

A lovely visit to a beautiful, comfortable home. Liked the Ouessant sheep too!
The R-Family
Thank you for the lovely hamper. It was lovely to be back for the third time. It was made special by the beautiful Barn Owls with their nightly fly past and sitting on the posts by the deck just looking at us. Just wonderful. We managed to have a good time despite the weather . Going home very relaxed
