Amber House

About this property

Amber House is a pleasant reverse-level home resting in Dorchester, Dorset, providing off-road parking, an airy open-plan living area and a private courtyard, ideal for a couple keen to explore this characterful county town. Step inside on the ground floor to find the double bedroom, a simple yet welcoming space where you can unpack and settle in before heading out to discover the local area. Along the hallway sits a stylish shower room with a generous walk-in shower, basin and WC, together with a handy utility area housing the washing machine. Climb the stairs to the first floor and you are greeted by the open-plan living space, where the kitchen, dining area and sitting area combine to create the heart of the home.

Prepare favourite suppers using the electric oven and hob, with a fridge/freezer on hand for chilled drinks and easy ingredients, before lingering over your meal at the dining table for two. Afterwards, move across to the seating area, switch on the TV and unwind together as you plan the following day. When the sun is shining, slide open the door to the courtyard, where outdoor furniture offers a pleasant spot for morning coffee or an early evening drink before wandering to the nearby pub. With a shop just a short distance away for everyday essentials and a choice of eateries within walking reach, you can enjoy a car-free break if you wish.

Spend your days wandering Dorchester’s streets, calling in at cafés, browsing independent shops or simply soaking up the atmosphere of this Dorset setting. However you choose to spend your time, Amber House offers a straightforward base for a relaxed Dorset getaway.

A trip to Dorset is not complete without visiting the market town of Dorchester, with its Roman roads, museums and a wide selection of pubs and restaurants. Enjoy a scenic walk around Maiden Castle, the largest hillfort in England, or visit the County Museum which has a room devoted to Thomas Hardy, born just two miles away in Bockhampton. Just seven miles away are the glorious gently shelving beaches and picturesque harbour of Weymouth, and the rugged peninsula of Portland, linked to the mainland by Chesil Beach, part of the breathtaking World Heritage Coastline. In fact, you’ll find yourself so intoxicated by Dorset’s magic spell, you won’t want to return home at the end of your stay!
