Carrier’s Cottage – A Slice of Dorset Charm
Originally built in the 19th century, Carrier’s Cottage is an extended semi-detached home that blends generous accommodation with rustic character. From exposed wooden beams and deep windowsills to stripped wood flooring, it offers two reception rooms—the lounge with a wood burner for cosy evenings and a dining room ideal for hosting. The kitchen features a welcoming Rayburn, complemented by a utility room and downstairs W.C. Upstairs, three double bedrooms and a modern four-piece bathroom provide comfort. Outside: an attached garage, driveway for two cars, and delightful gardens.

Nestled in the heart of the sought-after village of Buckland Newton, Carrier’s Cottage offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the quintessential Dorset lifestyle. This charming home is surrounded by rolling hills, picturesque lanes, and a welcoming community that makes rural living truly special.
The village itself is steeped in character and convenience. A converted chapel serves as the local shop, while the highly regarded primary school and well-maintained playing areas make it ideal for families. At the centre of village life is the Gaggle of Geese, a traditional pub known for its warm atmosphere and locally sourced food—a perfect spot to unwind after a countryside walk.
Beyond Buckland Newton, the historic market town of Sherborne is just a short drive away, offering an impressive Abbey, two castles, boutique shopping, and a mainline rail connection to London Waterloo for effortless travel. Dorchester, the county town, and Sturminster Newton provide further amenities, from supermarkets and healthcare to cultural attractions and dining options.
For those who dream of outdoor living, this location is a paradise. Explore scenic footpaths and bridleways that weave through the Dorset countryside, enjoy cycling routes, or simply relax in your own garden, tending to flowers or growing your own produce. The surrounding area is rich in heritage and natural beauty, with the Jurassic Coast and its stunning beaches within easy reach for memorable day trips.
Carrier’s Cottage is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle. Whether you’re seeking a peaceful retreat, a family haven, or a base to explore Dorset’s treasures, this property delivers the good life in style..
