Hardy Chalet Scandinavian style chalet on working dairy farm
Hardy is a Scandinavian style timber framed chalet in the grounds of a working dairy farm surrounded by Blue Spruce trees. Hardy (aptly named after the author Thomas Hardy) has three en-suite bedrooms.
We are happy for any visitors to watch the milking in the afternoons. It is a fasinating process to watch.
North Dorset Location: Hardy chalet at Stour Cross Farm sits on top of a hill just outside West Stour village.
It is centrally placed for many attractions which can be reached easily by car. The village itself is very friendly and hosts many fun fund raising events. The local free house pub boasts excellent cuisine and fine ales.
Within the grounds of Hardy are three other chalets. Duncliffe, Melbury and Wessex. All sleeping six with their own parking and surrounded by Blue Spruce Fir trees.
Our games room is available for our guests.. It consists of a table tennis table, Table football, large connect 4 and air hockey. For the little ones they can play on the car mat with a selection of cars.

We had a lovely time here, Christine was lovely! It was clean, well laid out and had all the amenities. It was ideally located for a friends wedding at The Old Milking Parlour 5 minutes down the road. The games room was good although we didn’t realise we needed so many 50ps for the pool table we would love to stay here again.

Thank you Elizabeth for your 5* review and comments. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay in Hardy chalet.
It was lovely to meet you and your family. Apologies for the charge to use the Pool table - you must have been expert Pool players to get though so many 50p's !! - so if you choose to stay again you can have free access to the Pool table.
Hope we will see you again.
Best Wishes Christina

Beautiful Location & Accommodation
We stayed at one of four lovely, spacious and well equipped villas in the heart of the Dorset countryside. The views are beautiful and the only noise is that of a working farm which we found very comforting. The villa was very roomy with comfortable beds and the en-suite bathrooms to each of the three bedrooms was a hit with our family. Chris (the host) was very helpful and looked after all our needs. The kitchen was very well equipped and we were able to cook very large meals with ease. The lounge had comfortable, leather sofas and theall important TV worked well. If anyone is looking for a restful, rural holiday you could not do better.

Relaxing Break
Had a great time here. Host was lovely and helpful, games room a nice bonus, seeing new born calves also a bonus.
Location a bit away from things but not a real problem as that was the idea.
Overall a great stay in a comfortable property.

Excellent relaxing stay
We all really enjoyed our stay in Hardy cottage 15/8/20 - 22/8/20. Cottage had all amenities and instructions on how to use them.
Beds were very comfortable and clean and all showers in en suites worked very well with constant hot water.
Beautiful location and we enjoyed our first experience of staying on a working farm. We was lucky enough to witness lots of cows calving.
Christina was very obliging and contact with her throughout our stay was very good.
Would highly recommend staying here for location, amenities and although very rural, is only a drive away from many attractions. Would love to come back and stay here

Lovely location and amazing hosts
We had a fantastic time in the Hardy cottage. They kids loved the playroom, and we saw a calf being born in the field behind us which amazed them (and they got to hand-feed the calves as well).
Lovely hosting from Christina, and an amazing place to stay.

Overall friendly and welcoming
We had such a lovely stay here
Large comfortable and well equipped cabins with good disabled access
An excellent games room and my daughter loved bottle feeding the calves.
The best thing about deepest dorset is Christina herself who is a friendly and accessible host who is there without intruding in any way. She always had time to talk to us and provided welcoming touches ofor our children. We wish her and her family well and our thanks

Thank you for your kind words and it was lovely to meet you and your family.
I'm so glad you enjoyed your week despite the weather having a couple of off days.
I appreciated your daughter helping to bottle feed the calves as it's quite a handful when all 20 of them are hungry at once. Hope the photos came out ok.
Do look us up if you are ever in Dorset again.
Kind Regards
Christina

Spacious accommodation, well equipped
We stayed in the Hardy chalet for a week while attending the Chalke Valley History Festival. It was an excellent base - clean, spacious, comfortable and well equipped. Really appreciated having an ensuite for each bedroom. Lots of good pubs in the area, and plentiful provisions at the Udder farmshop nearby. Flies might have been a problem if we'd wanted to have the windows open, but it wasn't hot, so we didn't.

Hardy chalet was absolutely perfect. Everything you'd expect for a home away from home, clean, well equipped and within a short drive of Shaftesbury and Sherbourne. Can't wait to go back next year!

Home from home chalet
Lovely chalet in peaceful location. Very welcoming owner, made to feel at home immediately. Watching the cows giving birth was a bonus, we managed to see 2 from the balcony. Chalet was spotlessly clean & nothing had been forgotten, very well equipped. Ideal for 6 adults( there are 3 bathrooms). We found Dorset to very pretty with Shaftsbury being very close a photo of Gold Hill with a loaf of bread in your hand is a must!
There are lots of places to see including Cheddar Gorge & if it's raining the Haynes car museum is not far, even if you're not really interested in cars it's a very interesting place.
All in all we enjoyed our stay & would recommend these chalets without hesitation.

Sobre o anfitrião
Anfitrião: Mrs Christina Trim
Hardy chalet at Stour Cross Farm is situated on a working dairy farm. We milk approx 140 black and white Freisian Holstein cows twice daily. During the summer months most of the calves are born of which a third are Freisian. These are hand reared by myself and often get spoilt with affection. They become very friendly and don't mind being groomed or cuddled. This seems to set them up right when they join the herd. The cows are housed in a barn over the winter and turned out to grass in spring until November. Hardy looks out onto some of the fields and guests are delighted when they wake up in the mornings, pull back the curtains and see all the girls grazing. Some guests have never seen cows before let alone stand within 2 ft of them. Don't worry, there is a fence and although they are very inquisitive they are quite harmless.
We are happy for any visitors to watch the milking in the afternoons. It is a fasinating process to watch.
