Bridge Farmhouse

About this property

Verwood 1 mile. An attractive, traditional farmhouse in a peaceful country location on a working beef and sheep farm in rural East Dorset, close to the borders of Hampshire and Wiltshire, about a mile from the thriving community of Verwood. This comfortably-furnished, well-appointed Dorset cottage, with its enclosed lawned garden, is set beside the sparkling waters of the River Crane in a Site of Special Scientific Interest. The surrounding farm and heath teem with wildlife and provide wonderful rural walks. Locally you can visit the Heavy Horse Centre or Moors Valley Country Park, including Go Ape high-wire adventure, whilst within a short drive lies the boundary of the New Forest National Park, with its wild ponies, deer and picturesque villages. How about visiting the superb beaches and attractions at Bournemouth, or the ancient cathedral city of Salisbury, both a short drive? And don't forget a visit to the nearby World Heritage Site of Stonehenge. This really is a tranquil Verwood holiday cottage from which to explore this beautiful area.
