Find yourself in the green and rolling hills of Dorset and you’ll soon be bowled over by Beaminster. This ancient Dorset village has many a mesmerising quality aided by babbling brooks and simmering streams descending from the surrounding hillside. This is rural Dorset at its most luscious. With some 200 listed buildings centred around its protected marketplace, a holiday cottage in Beaminster will over deliver on history too.

Imagine you only have 48 hours, Beaminster short breaks fit perfectly into this timeframe. Famous film locations, magical museums, riverside walks and wonderful local wine should all feature. You could even squeeze in a trip to the seaside at Bridport.

Make yourself a base in one of our Beaminster holiday cottages before heading off to Mapperton House and Gardens. Will you recognise the backdrop to the 2015 adaptation of Far from the Madding Crowd or indulge in the award winning valley garden? Round off your day with a Furleigh Estate wine tour and a tipple.
