Napier Farmhouse, Dorchester

Napier Farmhouse sits in Minterne Magna, Dorset - a proper old-school farmhouse with bags of character. This 5-bedroom beauty sleeps up to 12 people and comes with two cosy reception rooms including a snug with an open fireplace. Perfect for multi-generational family gatherings where you need space to spread out or hide from the in-laws.

Set within stunning countryside, the farmhouse offers exclusive access to Minterne Gardens - 27 acres of flowering plants that'll make your Instagram followers properly jealous. Just 2 miles from Cerne Abbas and 10 miles from both Dorchester and Sherborne. After exploring, you'll appreciate that steaming hot tub even more.

The accommodation includes five diverse bedrooms: a super-king zip-and-link with en-suite, a twin room, one double with two optional single day beds and two additional double rooms. Three bathrooms ensure nobody's crossing their legs in the morning. The kitchen comes fully equipped with a range-style cooker, microwave, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer.

Nearby attractions include Minterne Gardens with its spectacular rhododendrons and bluebells (on your doorstep), the famous Cerne Abbas Giant (2 miles, 5-minute drive), Dorchester's museums and high street (10 miles, 20-minute drive) and Sherborne with its two castles and beautiful Abbey (10 miles, 20-minute drive).

Napier Farmhouse truly delivers for everyone. Bring the grandparents, bring the kids, bring the dogs (up to 2 welcome). With shared tennis courts and a heated outdoor pool (April-October), plus your private hot tub, you'll run out of holiday before you run out of things to do.
