Situated in the grounds of the historic, Grade II listed King’s Old Rectory, North Cottage (one of two superb holiday cottages at this location) offers guests the opportunity to stay somewhere quite exceptional. Situated deep in the heart of South Wiltshire’s magnificent Chalke Valley, where the sparkling River Ebble flows towards the cathedral city of Salisbury.

Recently, the property has undergone a painstaking and no-expense-spared refurbishment, where the owners have ensured the period features are mixed with modern touches, to create a truly beautiful holiday home. We love the understated taste and style that are evident throughout the interiors. While the open plan kitchen dining arrangement is really airy and spacious, the bedroom upstairs is big and airy with one king size bed with ensuite shower room.

Outside there is a large rustic garden with plenty of shrubbery and sitting area suitable for the summer time when wanting to eat outside or just simply relax. In Broad Chalke, the beautiful village in which Kings Cottage North sits, there are plenty of walking, bridleways and cycling routes right on your doorstep. The village has an 18th century traditional pub and a local village store, and is home to the grade I listed Parish Church of All Saints, which dates back to the 13th and 14th century.

Kings Cottage is a great retreat for those looking to rest and relax within this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Broad Chalke is a village nestled under the download of Cranborne Chase, between Shaftesbury and Salisbury. Cranbourne Chase is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with the countryside can justly claim to be some of the finest in southern England. Walkers, riders and cyclists are particularly well served by the multitude of footpaths, bridleways and cycle routes which run along the valley while a walk up to the old Ox Drove on the chalk ridge above will be richly rewarded by the sweeping views.
