Wylye Croft

Martinstown sits in rural Dorset between the Jurassic Coast and Dorchester, with Eweleaze Dairy Organic among its working farms and quiet lanes. Wylye Croft occupies this landscape as a substantial family house, sleeping ten across five bedrooms and three bathrooms, with one dog welcome at no extra cost.

The ground floor holds an open-plan living, kitchen and dining space with a woodburner, plus a second sitting room and one bedroom with ensuite shower. Upstairs are four more bedrooms—two with kingsize beds and ensuites, two with pairs of single beds—and a family bathroom. The kitchen has an electric oven, gas hob, range cooker, dishwasher and all the usual equipment. Essentials like heating, electricity, bed linen and towels come as standard, along with wi-fi and the initial load of logs for the burner.

A hot tub on the patio seats four, there is parking for five cars and a garden with barbecue. The property suits large groups, extended families or friends gathering for a week together. No smoking is requested; the village itself is small and rural, with the coast and larger towns within reach by car.
