Manor Farmhouse

Manor Farmhouse is a four-bedroom thatched cottage sleeping eight guests in Cruxton, Dorchester, Dorset. This period property sits in almost two acres of grounds with river frontage. The house works brilliantly for family gatherings. A dedicated games room keeps everyone entertained whilst the expansive gardens give children and dogs space to roam.

The setting is peaceful. Rolling Dorset countryside surrounds the property. A quiet country lane leads to this private spot in the Frome Valley. The River Frome runs along the bottom of the garden.

The ground floor features a sitting room with open fire, a study with sofa bed, a snug with 40" smart television and a kitchen-dining room with electric AGA and seating for eight. Upstairs offers one super-king bedroom with en-suite bath, three king-size bedrooms (one with en-suite bath), plus a family shower room. Parking accommodates six cars easily.

Jurassic Coast beaches at Burton Bradstock lie 25 minutes away. The Cerne Abbas Giant is nearby. Mapperton Gardens makes a lovely afternoon trip. Maiden Newton village sits just 10 minutes' walk away.

Manor Farmhouse suits multi-generational families wanting space and flexibility. The combination of period features, modern facilities and extensive grounds creates a proper countryside retreat.
