The Barn at Cowherd Shute Farm

1986 is no longer with us

If you were looking for cottages like The Barn at Cowherd Shute Farm, how about trying these:

Overlooking Dorset’s Blackmore Vale and surrounded by rolling countryside, this property is just a mile from the historic market town of Shaftesbury. Filled with light, this stunning detached barn conversion is in a private location with its own driveway and unspoilt open views. The double-height sitting-room at The Barn at Cowherd Shute Farm opens onto a really large and private south-facing terrace, perfect for outdoor dining. Also off the central sitting-room is a single bedroom and spacious cloakroom, making the accommodation very flexible. Steps lead down from the other side of the sitting-room to the kitchen/diner and laundry-room. A staircase sweeps up from the rear of the sitting-room to the two first floor en suite bedrooms, set at opposite ends of the cottage to allow maximum privacy. There is a lovely tennis court to enjoy (shared with the Owners), great local walking, the historic towns of Bath and Sherborne and local attractions including Longleat and the National Trust’s Stourhead within easy reach. Dorset’s Purbeck coast is just over an hour away so there is something to suit everyone for a great holiday.
