Maiden Newton 1.6 miles. Nestled in the peaceful hamlet of Notton, near Maiden Newton in Dorset, is this wonderful, two-bedroom, semi-detached barn conversion, Hebe. Boasting a fantastic location within the stunning Dorset AONB countryside with easy access to the breath-taking Jurassic Coast, as well as a disabled-friendly interior with easy access, spacious wet rooms with support rails, as well as additional disabled facilities available on request, Hebe is a superb dwelling for a family of four or couples who are looking to embark on a scenic, rural getaway. Park-up on the ample driveway with space for several cars, before being greeted by a charming front garden with seating offering breath-taking views overlooking the surrounding countryside. Be welcomed into the contemporary open-plan living space, with toasty eco-friendly underfloor heating and tiled flooring, where you can look forward to cooking up a storm in well-equipped kitchen, featuring a handy dishwasher and washing machine, before savouring your meal over a bottle of wine at the dining table for four. If the weather is nice, why not dine alfresco out on the private patio, where you can soak up views of the rural countryside and your canine companion can stretch their legs? Afterwards, retire to the plush seating in the sitting room, with French doors allowing the natural light to flow in, and select a family favourite from the TV, as the electric fire crackles nearby. When sleep calls, retire to one of two well-presented bedrooms, a super-king-size with zip/link and a king-size, both served by generous en-suite wet rooms one of which has adjustable support rails. Awake from a leisurely slumber and take advantage of your unique setting with ponies & pet sheep you are welcome to meet, what could be better? It's cycle path and a foot path straight from the barns and just a short walk to the village of Maiden Newton, where you can find a petrol station, a newsagent, a pub (the Chalk & Cheese) and a coffee shop. A fun-filled Dorset Alpaca Walking experience awaits you in Frampton. From here, you may easily reach Weymouth, Portland, and the Jurassic Coast. Visit the Military Keep Museum, the Roman Townhouse, the Tutankhamun Museum, and the Terracotta Warriors in Dorset. There's also the Dinosaur Museum and the Thomas Hardy’s former home, Max Gate, now overseen by the National Trust.

Friendly hosts.

The owner was very welcoming and the treats were very enjoyable.
Linda
The property is outstanding and in a beautiful area. Vendela the owner had thought of everything that you could possibly need and the welcome bits were very thoughtful. When we booked it was with the intention of taking our disabled Daughter but she sadly passed away a few months before we went. The reason Iâm saying this is because it would have been perfect for her as it is so disabled friendly and accessible. Our dog Millie loved it too. Would recommend it 100%.
