The Cottage is set close to the centre of the popular village of Piddletrenthide located on the river Piddle, 8 miles north of Dorchester and 4 miles east of Cerne Abbas. A broad range of facilities can be found in the county town Dorchester where a wide range of facilities for education, entertainment, health and leisure can be found. The property has good access to Dorchester's surrounding countryside for horse riding, walking and other rural pursuits. The World Heritage Site of the Jurassic Coast is only a short drive away. Sport in the area includes golf at Came Down, Dorchester Cricket, Football and Rugby Clubs and Sailing in Portland and Weymouth. Communications are excellent, with main line railway links to London Waterloo from all the major centres, cross channel services at Poole and an airport at Bournemouth and, despite the very rural nature of the surrounding area, there is a very effective road network.
This property offers three distinct areas of outside space comprising a paved courtyard, main garden space and carport. The courtyard can be accessed either internally from the kitchen/ diner or external via a gate leading from the pavement at the front of the property. The courtyard provides a compact yet private area for alfresco seating/ dining and an additional storage area. The main garden space is mainly laid to lawn interspersed with established and shingle boarders. The garden has walled boundaries on all sides with raised lattice fencing on the front facing boundary providing additional privacy. There is also an area of hard standing, ideal positioning a table and chairs for al-fresco seating/ dining. Gated entrances provide access to the front courtyard and carport to the rear. The oak carport was a more recent addition to the property and provides a sheltered parking space for one vehicle or additional outside storage if so required.
