A great base from which to explore Dorset’s many attractions, including beaches, museums and historical houses.
The Old Bakery is located in the heart of the quaint Dorset village of Maiden Newton, with easy access to shops, pubs and local facilities. A mid-terrace holiday home, this is a perfect retreat for couples with small dogs. The property has stylish and modern decoration throughout and everything you would need for a perfect stay in Dorset. The first floor bedroom has a balcony with countryside views and is a perfect spot for reading a book or enjoying breakfast and taking in the peace and quiet of village life. There is a small courtyard to the rear of the property, again a lovely place to sit and relax watching the world pass you by. The rear of the property overlooks the River Frome, which flows across the back of the property, and offers peaceful countryside views. The property is in an ideal location for exploring the nearby towns, villages and picturesque beaches of Dorset. Within easy driving, one can spend the day exploring the county town of Dorchester, 6 miles, with its many family attractions, ranging from the Dorset County Museum, Dinosaur Museum, Tutankhamun Exhibition, Dorset Teddy Bear Museum, the Terracotta Warriors and of course its many restaurants and shops. Further afield, perhaps spend a day out enjoying Monkey World and The Tank Museum, or enjoy some walking along this famous scenic coastline around Lulworth Cove or Chesil beach, and on to Bridport, West Bay and Lyme Regis. Nearby, Weymouth with its sandy beach offers a huge range of sporting activities from boating, sailing, swimming, windsurfing and fishing. You can visit Sherborne with its two castles, the Cerne Abbas Giant engraved on the hill and many historical places, such as Athelhampton House and Gardens, Minterne Gardens, Mapperton House and Gardens and Forde Abbey and Gardens. Along with lovely country walks, beautiful country scenery and village pubs, there will be much for everyone to enjoy in this lovely part of West Dorset. If you don’t fancy taking the car, there are plenty of lovely walks and cycle routes very close to The Old Bakery along the Frome Valley trail. Beach 13½ miles. Shop and restaurant 500 yards, pub 600 yards.
