Castle House Cottage

Castle House Cottage is a ground-floor property in Horton, a quiet village in Dorset. You have your own entrance, a private drive and a lawned garden with seating, completely separate from the owner's home. The cottage sleeps four across two bedrooms—one with a zip-and-link super king bed (which can be split into singles) and one with a double—plus a shower room and separate living space.

The living room has a TV, DVD player and an open fire. The kitchen/dining room is fitted with an electric cooker, dishwasher, microwave, fridge and washing machine, so you can cook properly or keep things simple. Wifi, electricity, bed linen and towels are all included. Oil heating runs from October to April (charged separately). The cottage allows one pet and one car is always welcome; there's parking for two on the drive.

A pub sits within a quarter-mile walk. The New Forest and the Dorset coastline are within reach for day trips, and the village itself is surrounded by footpaths and country parks. Golf is two miles away. No smoking is permitted inside the property.
