About this property
Perched in the seaside village of Preston, Dorset, is this delightful two-bedroom bungalow, Sunny Haven. Enjoying a prime location on the edge of the Dorset AONB with close proximity to the local amenities and beautiful beaches, Sunny Haven is a fantastic dog-friendly choice for couples or a family of four. Leave your vehicle on the spacious driveway with room for three cars, before stepping into your new home from home. Look forward to cooking up a storm in the well-equipped kitchen/diner, ready to enjoy at the dining table for four over a celebratory bottle of fizz. After dinner, kick-back and relax in the living/dining room, featuring additional dining space, plush seating and a TV, perfect for film nights with loved ones. A well-appointed bathroom awaits with bath and separate walk-in shower so you can choose how best to prepare for the day ahead. There is also a separate cloakroom for your convenience. When sleep calls, retire to one of two beautifully decorated bedrooms, a double and a twin, both with a lovely outlook over the rear garden. Explore the local village, where you can dine at the welcoming eateries of Bridge Inn and The Spice Ship, pick up essentials from the well-stocked convenience store, or purchase your favourite bottle from Chalbury Food & Wine. Continue onto Weymouth, where you will find a wealth of gorgeous beaches with excellent watersports opportunities, as well as fantastic wildlife watching opportunities at RSPB Lodmoor and RSPB Radipole Lake, a sea life centre, bustling Pleasure Pier, and the impressive Victorian Nothe Fort and Gardens. From here, venture further to Dorchester, home to the National Trust site of Max Gate, former home of Thomas Hardy, as well as The Keep Military Museum, Roman Town House and Dorset Museum.

Everything you need is at hand. Only a 5min drive to seafront, and about the same to bowleaze. All in all, a great holiday, thank you.

The beds were comfortable, the kitchen fully equipped and a large secure garden. Everything we needed was available, the only thing I would recommend is a light for the back garden.
