Attractive former stables located on beautiful Victorian private country estate

Set in a beautiful Victorian private country estate of 350 acres of farmland, parkland and woodland on the Dorset/Devon border, the house is situated in a courtyard terrace and was once part of the stable block of the Home Farm near to the main mansion. Enjoy a peaceful and relaxing break - stroll along tree lined walks, take the path down to the estate's private beach or discover the South West Coastal foot path which runs through the grounds. Perfect for 4 -legged friends too! The Rousdon Estate is a 5 minute drive from Lyme Regis (home to the famous Cobb and some lovely beaches) and only 10 minutes from Axminster where the River Cottage Canteen can be found. In fact, it's a perfect spot for exploring all along the Jurassic coast - from looking for fossils at Charmouth and visiting the Swannery at Abbotsbury to the quietly dignified Regency town of Sidmouth and quaint fishing village of Beer.
The house itself offers all home comforts and is equipped to a very high standard. With four bedrooms (1 king, 2 doubles and a bunk room for 2 only appropriate for children) Two en-suite shower rooms, a family bathroom with bath and a downstairs cloakroom ensure you can be up and out quickly to enjoy your day. Outside there is a 50 foot garden lined with shrubs affording a great deal of privacy and a terrace for al fresco dining and barbecuing.
As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find somewhere suitable and welcoming for faithful companions and a maximum of 2 dogs are welcome at Home Farm North.

Such a beautiful building inside and out. The estate was fabulous and we really appreciated the privilege of a private beach with a fantastic walk to it that inspired the imagination (able to clamber and balance essential) We even found a few fossils there.

A gem of a place.
Lovely location for exploring the Jurassic cost. The private estate was really special and perfect for the early morning at late evening dog walks. Getting to the private beach was an adventure but not an easy trek that one would want to do regularly. The property is well laid out for a social blue family gathering. The large kitchen was well equipped making it easy for everyone one to get involved. On fine days the south facing enclosed garden provided a welcome space to share an outside meal and drinks. Overall it is a real gem of a place.

Another lovely holiday
This was the 3rd time we have stayed as a family at Home Farm, and we enjoyed it as always. The layout provides communal family time, so while the family chefs are preparing the meals, the remaining members can enjoy a galls of wine. Or two. No doubt we will be back.

Spacious, sociable, beautiful property.
Just loved this property, it has everything you need and more., including dog treats! So much thought has gone into the decor and the little items around the house. The garden is a good size and safe for both small children and pets. Rousdon estate is quite surreal and a little oasis with lovely walks. The walk to the beach is a real challenge though and certainly not for the frail or taint hearted! Worth the trek when you get there but then you have to consider the walk/climb back! Lots of beautiful beaches nearby, most of Dorset isn’t known for sandy beaches so be prepared for pebbles and shingle. We all loved this beautiful house, definitely the best self catering property we have ever stayed in.

My retirement treat.
It was our 2nd time at this house, myself and the wife, my two sister’s and the brother in-law and it won’t be the last, as soon as you walk through the door you feel you are at home, not in a holiday let, the house has everything you need for a self catering holiday, and the Rousdon Estate is so peaceful you cannot help but relax, and the welcome package was a nice gesture and much appreciated. We very much look forward to our next week at this house, once we have worked out our date’s we will be booking our stay again, and sally couldn’t of been more helpful in answering questions that I asked prior to us arriving. And to that sally I thank you for a wonderful week’s holiday.

A delightful, light, spacious and airy house set in a beautiful landscaped private estate full of character. Tastefully decorated, especially for Christmas. It was well maintained and equipped for the size including consideration for dogs. We all enjoyed a house with plenty of comforts - sofas & beds.

Enjoyed our stay. House was great. Can be an issue with parking especially with the residents but we sorted it out. Beautiful grounds and walks. Definitely need a car to get around. Can thoroughly recommend a trip to the donkey sanctuary about 20 minutes away.

Brilliant break
We had a lovely family holiday. The house was very comfortable, well appointed and particularly important for us was very dog friendly. We managed to explore lots of the estate and went on long walks everyday. The estate is very well kept and beautiful. The best part was the private beach. Quite a walk to get to it but the paths are very well kept and although steep in places not difficult to navigate if you take your time. The beach is beautiful. So quiet!!! Our teens even ventured into the sea. Lots to do close by too. Easy to access the coastal path. We walked to Beer one day which took us about 2 and a half hours. Sally was a great host and her response to emails and questions was second to none.

Home from home
A lovely property that felt like home. The estate was beautiful and well situated to visit the best of East Devon and West Dorset beaches. Never got to the estate beach as it was a good 40-50 minute walk from the cottage but there were lots of lovely walks on the estate. The owner was very helpful. Would absolutely recommend for an idyllic family holiday.
