Barn vacation rentals in Dorset

amazing place, couldn't ask for a better location, host and facilities

A wonderful place to spend 3 nights on the edge of the New Forest. Fabulous accommodation. Private, quiet and superb barn which was really well appointed with great facilities including a separate spa room solely for our use. Chris was a lovely host, great communication before, during and after our stay.

We had such a fantastic stay. The location is amazing, and we were fortunate to see so much wildlife. The barn is absolutely beautiful, really cozy and Bobbie very thoughtfully provided everything you could possibly need for your stay. It really was a home away from home. We have an electric car so it was fantastic to have a charging facility on site, this made everything so much easier for us. Bobbie was extremely welcoming, a truly lovely lady who couldn’t do enough to help us. We will definitely be returning, we won’t even look anywhere else. Truly fabulous!

Have stayed here many times now, it’s like a home away from home! Wonderfully relaxing and peaceful. I was lucky enough to see some Highland cattle babies on the farm this visit. Booking again soon!

Our second time staying here and we loved it just as much as the first time. A home away from home! The cottage is lovely, cosy, and clean with plenty of space as a family of 6 and a dog. Giles was really helpful and we loved all the local recommendations and walks. The location is perfect. Can’t wait to return next year!

A beautifully set up and self contained apartment. Lovely gardens and easy access to the countryside and the city. Being in a cul-de-sac and near the top of the hill also meant it was beautifully quiet and relaxing. The bus service to and from the city was excellent for evenings out and about. Great information pack to get up to speed on the local area and facilities. Cosy living room and great kitchen set up. The hot tub was a bonus to relax after the days spent walking the dog and exploring the area. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, Kate and Andrew were great hosts and super helpful to make our stay easy and stress free. Definitely recommend it!

Fantastic stay and great location. The owners were very quick to respond when messaged and they very kindly gave us a tour of their farm which we loved. I would highly recommend. 😊

The views from Cider Barn are so beautiful. We watched a barn owl hunting over the fields at dusk and dawn and the sound of a tawny owl whit wooing as I was going to sleep was magical! The living room / kitchen / dining is light and open plan and when I was there the sun was streaming in from sunrise to sunset. Loved watching the sunset with the owl hunting! Really enjoyed my stay here. It's an old barn - so the floor boards are a bit creaky but it is a special place.

It was a great stay, nice and quiet and clean. Thanks very much!

We wished we could have stayed longer. Lovely cottage and pretty country location. The garden was ideal for a dog as it was safely fenced around. My dog was incredibly happy sniffing around the area when we were outside sitting at the garden table. We didn't have time to use the Jacuzzi although it looked very inviting. Would recommend to other dog owners or walkers alike!

Great little getaway home. The place was lovely and fitted what we needed perfectly. The host was quick at responding to any questions we had and gave us lots of goodies on arrival. Would highly recommend this place.

Stayed for two nights and managed to visit Bath and Bristol so well placed for areas of interest. Immaculate and spotlessly clean. Lovely quite quirky place to stay with nice touches as a welcome. Had everything you’d need for a really relaxed stay. And nice to have the outside space too. Highly recommend this place for a couples weekend away.

A wonderful spot in south Dorset, central in the Isle of Purbeck and convenient for visiting all the lovely and varied surrounding landscapes. Keith welcomed us warmly and enthusiastically with plenty of trip tips, plus a delicious cream tea and bottle of bubbly to set things off on the right foot. The Little Thatch was very cozy and beautifully restored, much it seems due to Keith's impressive handiwork, and brightened by his arts-and-craft work. We enjoyed mingling with the resident fowl (they seem to love the little pond next to the cottage) and made acquaintance of the peacock and peahen. Plenty of deer also to be seen on the broader site. The location is well off the main road surrounded by woodland at the foot of the Purbeck ridge. It is wonderfully peaceful and comfortable. Can recommend whole-heartedly.

Me and my partner had such a nice experience staying at this rural getaway. Check in was very easy and Suzanne was very kind to offer an earlier check in so we could make more of a day of our planned break. We loved the homely feel and the beautiful greenery surrounding locally. The showers and bedrooms were clean. The beds and pillows were comfy. Would love to come back and stay for longer next time.

We stayed for two nights while in the area for a friend’s wedding and absolutely loved this beautiful cottage. It’s full of character, with gorgeous natural light, a cosy feel, thoughtful styling, and high-quality fittings throughout. The bed was so comfortable, and the bathroom and kitchen were both beautifully renovated and well-equipped with everything you could need. Laura was very welcoming - she met us on arrival, left some delicious local produce for us, and shared great recommendations for places to eat nearby (breakfast at The Old Dairy was a highlight!). Our stay was peaceful and relaxing, and we’d definitely love to come back. Thank you very much, Laura!

We loved our stay at the Owl barn! Beautiful clean accommodation exactly as described. lovely touches for our welcome!! we loved our stay and will definitely be back soon!! Thank you so much!!

We had such a lovely stay at the barn. The photos really don't do it justice, and I felt like we found a real steal. It was a great base for exploring Glastonbury and ham wall. The beds were comfortable and the house well equipped. We had a small issue with the WiFi and Michelle immediately responded to messages about it and sent someone over to look at it. We asked if we could check out half an hour later and Michelle kindly obliged. I really appreciated her flexibility and how seriously she takes hosting. We hope to stay again

Mary's barn is an unique place, a real AirBnB full of emotion and real vibes in the countryside of Wight. We loved staying there with our daughters, going to the pub through the green fields, sleeping with birds singing and waking up with horses. Mary is a lovely host. The barn is clean and well equipped. Location is something truly amazing. Thanks for that experience.

Carol’s place is very comfortable and luxurious - just as described in the listing. It’s a perfect location within walking distance of all the amenities in the lovely village of Marshfield and close to Bath and Bristol. Highly recommended.

A beautiful place to stay. Stunning beams in the bedroom, very well restored, spotless modern bathroom with infa red sauna and electric shower. Lots of wildlife can be heard at night. Fantastic wood burner with under floor heating downstairs. Easy walk to Exford. Great village shop with all you need and 2 pubs. We drove to Withypool and walked to Tarr Steps which was an 8 mile round trip but a great excursion in glorious late February sunshine. Lovely view from the garden at the pub at Tarr Steps and the food was good too. We love Exmoor as it is an unspoilt gem with so much peace and nature to surround yourself in. Everyone you meet is friendly which also helps. Photos of this place do not do it justice!

We loved staying at Greenlands Barn. the cottage was beautifully laid out and was warm and comfortable, Sarah made sure we had everything we needed. We used it as a base to enjoy the local area and to go on the West Somerset Steam railway. We saw a kingfisher and enjoyed a beautiful paddle up the river in the canoe. This Air b n b is highly recommended and other family members are interested in booking. Thank you Sarah

The place was exactly as described, very clean and the instructions were clear. We had a slight problem with the code to open the door, but Jenny immediately responded to aid us. The location is beautiful up a narrow lane, away from traffic, so very peaceful and there was enough room for our four cars. We enjoyed the outside space on the sunnier days. The facilities were perfect, all worked well, the open fire was a bonus as the weather was a little bit mixed. Note no logs are provided...so stop at local Spar to get some on your way to the house. Thanks Jenny for hosting us at your lovely barn.

Brilliant, peaceful garden setting, top quality finishes and a serious attention to detail. The apartment has all you need and Kate is always available if you need any help or recommendations. Highly recommended - we will definitely be back.

Lovely homely stay, very comfy beds and sofa, well equipped kitchen and brilliant hot tub! Donna was so welcoming, helpful and responsive if needed. We went on some great days out to Glastonbury and Wookey Hole, plus Tyntesfield. The area was very quiet, the road did not bother us at all and we had an excellent meal at the local pub the Litton, would highly recommend.
