Droop Farm Cottage

(1 review)

Sleeps: 6

Set behind the owners’ ancient farmhouse, and sensitively converted from a 300-year-old stone barn, Droop Farm Cottage has plenty to offer a group of family or friends seeking to get away from it all. You will be impressed by the elegant and homely feel throughout, wonderful welcome basket provided with Tracey's own homemade marmalade and cake! With the exterior stone work representing everything that is quintessential about small, English cottages. The small windows and slate roof really add to the character, with the interior carefully thought out to provide the best experience for visiting guests. The décor and soft furnishings give a sense of continuity as you pass through from room to room. Outside, there is plenty of room to explore as well as space to sit and admire the views which stretch off into the distance towards Bulbarrow Hill. If peace and privacy are high on your list, then this is a perfect choice for your holiday. The three bedrooms are spread across both floors; the first of the double beds is located on the ground floor, while the second double room and third twin room are on the ground floor. One family bathroom can be found on the first floor, hosting bath with separate shower, WC and Basin. The modern kitchen dining area has everything you could ever need, and leads into the living room which features comfy seating and TV with Freeview. A tranquil, rural village sat just outside of the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty Hazelbury Bryan is a small, traditional village with thatched buildings, a parish church dating back prior to the 15th century and a popular pub that was built in 1750, it also boasts a Spar shop. In the village there is also a field with cricket and football facilities as well as a children’s play area. Droop Farm Cottage is great for families looking to have a quiet country retreat away from the madness of everyday life. Three bedrooms: 1 x ground-floor 4ft double, 1 x first floor 4ft 6 double, 1 x first floor twin. Ground-floor shower room with WC.

Diana, July 2019

We have stayed here for the past 3 consecutive years and we can’t wait to go back. The cottage itself is beautiful, immaculately clean and beautifully furnished. The owners David and Tracey, are lovely, very friendly and welcoming and nothing is too much trouble for them. Tracey also makes her own jams, marmalade’s and chutneys which are simply delicious. Their pretty, well cared for private garden is perfect for our Welsh Springer Spaniel to mooch about in . The owners dog (a delightful little Westie called Alfie) is a real character and often pops round to say hello to us and Megan! There is not only a substantial welcome pack for us but also some mini Bonio’s and even a ball for the dog! We cannot recommend this cottage highly enough. A hidden gem.
