This wonderful cottage is located in a tranquil, rural setting in the picturesque hamlet of Shitterton within the village of Bere Regis.

Perfect for families or friends to come together, Oak Cottage provides tradition and charm, reflected through its quality furnishings and thoughtful décor.

The kitchen features painted dove grey units and granite counter tops, with a dining table close by, providing seating for six people. For those extra facilities that you may need, a helpful utility room is on hand, equipped with a washing machine and dryer. As the night draws in, you will be spoilt for choice between the delightful bedrooms on offer, from a ground floor king-size bedroom, to the additional king-size and twin rooms positioned on the upper level.Ample storage and stylish furnishings provide somewhere of quality to enjoy a peaceful night's sleep. A family shower room, ground floor en-suite and ground floor cloakroom complete the accommodation, matching that of a hotel standard. Once you have explored indoors, spend a lazy afternoon in the enclosed garden, a spacious well-maintained area with gravel and lawn sections, a barbecue for a sunny day, and a hot tub for pure relaxation. This holiday cottage really does provide a luxurious holiday base from which to seek out all that this lovely area has to offer, from the local historic market towns of Dorchester, Wareham & Wimborne to the stunning Jurassic Coast or the Blue Flag beaches of Poole & Bournemouth.
