There are wonderful countryside views. The owners sometimes have their sheep or goats in this field.
The Old Dairy is in a small complex of converted farm buildings, in a gated development.
There is plenty of parking available just outside the door.
The Old Dairy is the farthest building visible in the photograph (there are 4 polytunnels now in situ housing goats). Knowlton Church is a short distance away.
The skies above The Old Dairy can be astounding. In 2023 the Aurora Borealis was visible above Knowlton Church.
Knowlton Church is a Norman church built within a neolithic henge and The Old Dairy sits on the southern fringes.
The glorious sandy beaches in the east of the county are a short drive away.
Take a trip to National Trust's Kingston Lacy.

The Old Dairy farm is a lovely and cosy home. We enjoyed our time and wished we stayed a bit longer than 6 nights. I highly recommend this property and would book with Louisa (owner) again and stay there longer next time.

No expense seems to have been spared in turning an old farm building into the high specification, fabulous and beautifully furnished Old Dairy. Whilst one does not necessarily intend to undertake Cordon Bleu cooking in a holiday cottage, the kitchen has been thoughtfully equipped to the highest level. The Old Dairy is conveniently situated for exploring nearby Salisbury and other attractions....

Wonderful in every way. Stunningly styled, extremely comfortable and in great location. I would have no hesitation in recommending The Old Dairy and am highly likely to return.
Mr Pilkington April 2024
Delightful setting and cottage was well equipped. Enjoyed watching lambing, and we had a wonderful and enlightening tour of the farm…goats, pigs,cows and bull! Met all the family, who were only too happy to tell us the history of the farm etc. A most enjoyable stay….and as a bonus the sun shone !...

The Old Dairy is a special place. The owner has put great thought into the decor, ensuring it is fully-equipped and supplied local information on where to eat and what to do. I enjoyed getting a tour of the farm next door meeting some rare breeds. The property is the perfect direction to view the Dorset sunsets. Would absolutely recommend staying at The Old Dairy! ...
