Loaf

Loaf is a gorgeous and sympathetic restoration of an ancient Dorset granary with panoramic views across the Marshwood Vale. Its interiors are straight out of a magazine with design features galore, it's perfect for any couple (and dog) who are looking for that picture-perfect rural bolthole.

As you approach you will start to see how special it is with its striking facade and original features. There is undercover parking for two cars, one in the barn opposite and one underneath Loaf, and a charming and secluded private garden space with some of the best countryside views you could wish to see.

Entering Loaf it is a visual delight, the perfect mix of old meeting new in the open plan living/sleeping space. Everything from the sumptuous king-size bed, luxury linen and the cosy living space to the gorgeous kitchen are reminders of how much love and thought has been put into this retreat.

The bespoke kitchen is perfectly formed and very well-equipped with dishwasher, oven, hob and microwave alongside lots of clever storage and worktop space. Off the kitchen is the open plan sitting-area with extremely comfy armchairs and a Smart TV for cosy evenings in.

The bathroom is something very special with separate bath and large shower enclosure. The attention to detail and all the little design quirks will appeal to anyone with a creative eye.

Loaf has that hard-to-find feeling of homely, cosy and peaceful, which makes it perfect for all seasons and any opportunity to stay here shouldn't be missed. If all that wasn't enough it is worth mentioning that the lovely owners of Loaf go to great lengths to make the guest experience really memorable so expect some lovely little surprises.

Loaf has its own private and enclosed outdoor space with barbecue and cosy seating areas for you to eat, drink, relax and soak in the views. Your dog will also feel most at home with dog washing and towel drying facilities in the nearby barn.

Loaf is located at Kingsland Farm which includes the owners' nearby thatched farmhouse, Hood's (6045) and a shepherd's hut used for holiday letting purposes, with each having their own parking areas.

Please note, Loaf is accessed via external stone steps and is therefore unsuitable for anyone with limited mobility.

There are free-range chickens on the farm therefore we politely ask that dogs are kept on a lead.
