Pheasant’s Cottage

A Luxury Cottage for six

From £160 per night, or £800 for the week, see full pricing

Stylish farm house cottage for the larger family

Stepping into Pheasants’ roomy lounge, a red brick fire place and comfortable twin sofas invite you to relax. Pheasants’ practical, fully-fitted kitchen-diner is convenient for family dining including a toddler’s high chair. Adjacent to the dining room, a ground floor twin bedroom and en-suite shower are ideal for those who prefer not to climb stairs. The ground floor twin has zip and link beds so it can become a super king size if required.

On the first floor, you will find two spacious bedrooms (1 x double and 1 x twin). The double has a freestanding wardrobe and chest of drawers, the twin a wardrobe, dressing area and vanity unit.

For the youngest family member, Pheasants Cottage provides a nursery, with large cot-bed, changing cabinet and teddy-bear. A high chair is supplied. A stylish bathroom serves the first floor. If you are looking for space, comfort and homely touches, Pheasant’s Farm House Cottage is just right for you.

Welcome Hospitality Packs

Enjoy a ‘taste of Dorset’ when you arrive, with our complimentary Welcome Pack. If you’re staying up to four nights, you’ll receive our Standard Welcome Pack, comprising a pint of milk, tea, coffee, scones, chocolates and biscuits.

When you stay for longer, you’ll be greeted with our Luxury Welcome Pack, which also includes a loaf of rustic farmhouse bread, scones, butter, jam and clotted cream.

We can also provide a Dorset Breakfast Pack that includes local meats and cereal. For special occasions, we have the Upton Grange Celebration Package including champagne and appropriate decorations in your cottage. Ask for details about these two options.

As far as possible, all the items are sourced locally. The contents of a pack may vary depending on availability.

The Dorset Countryside

From the moment you arrive at your holiday cottage, you’re spoilt for choice for things to do. Our estate gardens, right outside your door, are a haven for wildlife. We’re surrounded by open fields and quiet footpaths, and it’s a relatively short walk to the coast, or the historic Smugglers’ Inn at Osmington.

Go a little further to discover the Georgian seafront and family-friendly beach at Weymouth, or the busy county town of Dorchester. Popular and family-friendly attractions nearby include the primate haven of Monkey World, the heavyweight displays at the Tank Museum and the haunted Nothe Fort.

Other places of interest include the rock arch of Durdle Door, the atmospheric ruins of Corfe Castle, and the ‘lost’ village of Tyneham.
