About this property

Tucked away in a delightful private setting within the owner's generous, 20-acre gardens and grounds rests this fabulous single-storey dwelling, Hill View, Lilac Lodge. Centrally positioned within easy reach of both the coast and country of Dorset, Hill View, Lilac Lodge offers a handy base for a small family looking to explore while offering the tranquillity of the rural location and open views. Upon arrival, step through the well-maintained enclosed garden that envelops this lovely dwelling and climb the handful of stairs entering into the contemporary open-plan living space, beautifully-appointed with an elegant and neutral décor, flooded with natural light. Kick off your shoes and take a perch at the breakfast bar as the designated chef prepares a hearty meal in the amply-equipped kitchen and gather your loved ones around the eye-catching marble dining table to indulge in your culinary delights. Settle down for the evening on the sofa to enjoy a movie marathon or step out onto the veranda, offering a lovely spot to soak in the evening sun with a refreshing glass of wine. When sleep calls, tuck the little ones up in the snug twin room before retiring to the master bedroom, fit with a sumptuous king-size and an en-suite, where you can relax in the tub before snuggling up under the covers. In the morning, kickstart your day with an invigorating rinse in the contemporary family shower room before heading out to explore your surroundings. The grounds are home to a carp lake and a private wooded area, which can be explored on request and where you may see some deer and other native wildlife. Take a break from doing the cooking and treat your loved ones to a delicious meal with a stroll into the heart of Wareham, boasting quaint tea rooms and traditional country pubs. After satisfying your appetite, hire a boat and soak in the scenery aboard the River Frome, or if you'd prefer to stay on land, discover the wealth of fascinating local history on display at Wareham Town Museum. There's a host of scenic trails worth discovering from your doorstep, with the nearby Wareham Forest Way, passing through the scenic woodland of Wareham Forest and its abundance of wildlife toward the quaint village of Sturminster Marshall, as well as The Purbeck Way, a spectacular trail within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty to Corfe Castle. Within easy reach are the tranquil waters of Lulworth Cove, tucked away on the dramatic Jurassic Coast, where the rounded bay formed by sea erosion provides a secluded spot to unwind and bask in the sun and sand; avid outdoor adventurers can tackle the steep climb to Durdle Door for spectacular panoramic views across the coastline. Make unforgettable memories with a stay at Hill View, Lilac Lodge.

The ancient market town of Wareham rests in the picturesque county of Dorset, situated between the River Frome and the River Piddle. The charming riverside town homes a fabulous array of independent and high-street shops, along with a selection of eateries to cater to a range of tastes, perfect for an enjoyable staycation! Hire a boat and enjoy a leisurely float along the river, browse the colourful market stalls or test your swing at the golf course.

  • Peter

    The setting is lovely and peaceful but still very convenient for local amenities and attractions. We were lucky enough to see the deer on several evenings.

  • Nicola

    Lilac Lodge was beautifully clean and well equipped with a lovely view out of the living area. Shame the weather wasn't better to make the most of the outside seating. Received a tasty basket of treats on arrival. No hesitation recommending Lilac Lodge as a great place to stay

  • Valerie

    It is furnished to a very high standard throughout and is spotlessly clean. The setting is idyllic and very peaceful with lovely views. There are so many interesting places to visit nearby, beautiful countryside and it’s not far from the stunning Dorset coast. Janet the host was very friendly, helpful and welcoming. We hope to return before too long and highly recommend it.
