The Bothy At Minterne House is a stunning semi-detached property in Minterne Magna, Dorset. This 3-bedroom holiday home sits within a peaceful walled garden on the historic Minterne Estate. You'll have daily access to the famous Minterne Gardens - a picturesque Himalayan valley bursting with rhododendrons, daffodils and bluebells in spring. Fancy a bit of posh? Lord Digby might even give you a free house tour if he's around!
The rolling Dorset countryside surrounds you here. Just 2 miles away is Cerne Abbas with its well-endowed hillside giant (wink wink). Dorchester's shops and museums are 10 miles off, while Sherborne with its two castles and abbey sits within the same distance.
