About this property

Steeped in village life, resting opposite the church and neighbouring a 16th century pub is this traditional mid-terrace thatched dwelling, Chestnut Cottage, situated at the heart of the village of Puncknowle. This characterful accommodation is the perfect setting to come back to each evening and to enjoy all that the Dorset countryside has to offer. Upon entering the property, you are welcomed into the large sitting room, where the inglenook fireplace takes centre stage before the plush sofas, creating the perfect setting to catch up on your favourite TV shows or read a great book. Moving through the property will bring you to a brightly decorated kitchen/dining room, which boasts everything you could possibly need to cater for yourselves during a week-long break, plus a dining space where the patio doors can be opened up to filter in a cooling breeze during a summer’s evening. Upstairs you will find a large double bedroom with views over the garden and surrounding countryside, a large twin with double aspect windows and finally a well-presented double to the front of the property. If you can tear yourself away from this idyllic setting, spend special occasions within the local pub which comes with a superb menu catering to all tastes. This delightfully rural village is situated only six miles from the seaside village of West Bay, famous for being the location in ITV’s Broadchurch series and promises to be a superb day out for the whole family. The market town of Bridport is just seven miles away and you will find all your high street needs as well as lots of lovely local independent shops, cafés and bars. Weymouth is nine miles away and you can find an award-winning golden sandy beach coupled with shallow waters perfect for a dip in the sea. Chestnut Cottage is a wonderful choice for a family holiday in Dorset.

Puncknowle is a charming village of stone cottages surrounded by the beautiful bride valley on one side and a down land ridge that shelters the village from the sea on the other. Pronounced ‘Punnle’ this is a great location for exploring the Jurassic Coast and surrounding countryside. Just 1.5 mile from the famous Chesil Beach, you can enjoy beach walks or coast road drives with spectacular views. The Market town of Bridport is only 5 miles away where you can find all the amenities you need including many independent cafes and restaurants. Abbotsbury is under 5 miles away and has much to offer, from Tropical gardens to the Swannery bird reserve. If that wasn’t enough the village is chocolate box pretty and filled with local artists and craftsmen who have their own shops to explore.
