The property

New Barn is a characterful, single-storey holiday cottage set in the heart of the Dorset countryside, on the edge of the peaceful village of Winterborne Stickland. Built among a quadrangle of converted former farm buildings, this inviting retreat is well suited to couples, friends or a small family seeking a relaxed break with plenty of space to unwind, both indoors and out. The accommodation is arranged entirely on the ground floor and centres around a bright, open-plan living area designed for easy, sociable living. The kitchen is well equipped for preparing everything from simple breakfasts to hearty evening meals, while the dining area provides a comfortable setting for shared moments around the table. At the end of the day, the sitting area offers a welcoming place to put your feet up, with a woodburning stove adding warmth and atmosphere, particularly welcome during cooler months. There are two thoughtfully presented bedrooms, each benefiting from the convenience of its own en-suite facilities. The king-size bedroom includes an en-suite bathroom with a bath and a shower over, ideal for a long soak after a countryside walk, while the twin bedroom features an en-suite shower room, making the layout especially practical for guests sharing. Outside, New Barn enjoys an enclosed, private garden with a lawned area, patio and picnic bench, perfect for enjoying a morning coffee or relaxed outdoor meals in fine weather. Guests also have access to a larger shared front lawn and a shared on-site games room, complete with a pool table, table football and air hockey, offering entertainment for all ages. Winterborne Stickland is well placed for exploring some of Dorset’s most appealing attractions. The nearby market town of Blandford Forum offers independent shops, cafés and riverside walks along the River Stour, while the Cranborne Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty provides miles of unspoilt countryside and walking routes. A little further afield, the Jurassic Coast invites you to discover dramatic cliffs, fossil-rich beaches and scenic coastal paths, making New Barn a well-rounded base for a varied Dorset getaway. Note: This property is in a courtyard with Refs. 18978, 19285, 905895, 905897 and 905898, together they sleep 28.
