Star Farm is a small working farm that provides a luxury self catering holiday barn that is the ideal romantic retreat in a peaceful and secluded setting. The holiday cottage is down a private lane just outside the village of Hazelbury Bryan which is only a few minutes from Sturminster Newton, Dorset.

The self catering barn was converted in 2009 and now provides well equipped accommodation for 2 people.

Downstairs:

The holiday cottage benefits from a large open plan sitting/dining room with glazed French doors opening onto a generously sized private decked area with fantastic uninterrupted views over farmland.

The sitting room has been furnished with contemporary stylish furniture, oak flooring and has a flat screen HD television, DVD player, Sony HiFi (with iPod dock) and a wide selection of books and DVDs for your enjoyment if you simply want to sit and relax.

The fully fitted kitchen has a range of modern units with hob, oven, microwave, dishwasher, fridge freezer and washing machine/tumble drier.

The kitchen also includes a wine fridge, stocked with a selection of wine for your convenience. Simply settle up at the end of your stay for anything you have selected.

Upstairs:

The bedroom upstairs is luxurious yet maintains the character of the original barn with oak floors, calm décor and delightful rural views through the shuttered window. A goose down duvet and pillows and high quality pocket sprung mattress on the king size bed add to your comfort. All bed linen and towels are Egyptian cotton. A wall mounted flat screen TV, iPod dock and soft bedside lighting finish the room.

The fully tiled bathroom is a particular luxury feature of the cottage enjoying a large walk in shower/wet room with underfloor heating. Large luxury towels are provided along with a range of quality toiletries.

Outside:

The cottage is approached by its own private drive and has ample, safe parking. Outside, the cottage has a large, private decked area and small orchard.

Facing west, the deck looks out over the farm to the hills beyond and is a perfect spot to sit and enjoy the sunset with a glass of wine on a summer's evening. A garden table and chairs and parasol are provided along with two recliners for those sunny days. A Weber barbeque and supply of charcoal are also available for use.

Star Farm cottage is ideally situated for exploring the quiet rural beauty of Dorset. Enjoy miles of empty footpaths, (including the famous Hardy Way), take time to discover some truly magical rural villages (complete with fantastic pubs) or alternatively spend time on the beaches taking in the breathtaking scenery of the Jurassic coast.

Some of the most picturesque National Trust properties in the country are also within very easy reach for example Stourhead with its world famous gardens, or Kingston Lacy.

We can also provide details of excellent local trout fishing, clay pigeon shooting and deer stalking for those interested.
