Beehive Cottage is 200 years old and used to be the home of the district nurse.
Sit back and relax in the sitting-room which has a gorgeous original inglenook fireplace with a delightful wood-burner effect gas stove.
The courtyard garden is south-facing, making it a real sun-trap. Fully enclosed, the area makes a fantastic space for children and dogs to safely explore.
The well-equipped galley kitchen looks out over the pretty courtyard garden.
The master bedroom has a king-size double bed and lovely soft linens.
The dining-room is completely separate from the sitting-room, ideal for long lazy meals.
The modern ground-floor bathroom is a lovely bright space.
You will find it difficult to tear yourself away from this lovely wood-burner effect gas stove.
A view of the stairs with the traditional door. Should you wish to use a stair-gate, you will need to place it at the door of the twin room.
This pretty bedroom can either be made up as a king-size double bed (5') or two 2'6" twin beds.
Bee careful to not bump your head on the low lintels! These super sweet bees will help to remind you to take care.
This is the view towards the top of the stairs.
The television is cleverly hidden behind wooden doors.
Situated on a quiet square, in the village of Puddletown, Beehive Cottage lies opposite St Mary's Church.

Lovely, comfortable cottage in a good location. Back garden is a real suntrap. Easy to visit other areas. If you are over 5' mind your head.
Mr Smith February 2022
Beautifully clean on arrival, nice little touches of milk and bikkies - and we thoroughly enjoyed it.
Mr Chapman July 2022
We booked the cottage for its location having known the village for over 40 years. We had a personal reason for being there. The enclosed garden is a sun trap and I wished there had been a garden umbrella for some shade. Take care of doorways if you are over 5ft tall. And take care as some floors slope. It is an old cottage after all....
