About the host

Hosted by Ian Henderson

Host profile image

We live in Milton Keynes but like to spend time in Dorset having grown up in the area. We have stayed in many holiday homes and wanted to ensure that we offer the best quality for our guests.

Why they chose this property

We love to explore Dorset and found that this area offered us the perfect base to explore both coast and countryside. The nearest Beaches are Westbay and Weymouth, both around 25 miles. The ancient town of Sherborne has an amazing high street with many independent shops, great architecture and a fantastic abbey.

Our children love some of the local attractions including: The Fleet Air arm museum, Haynes motor museum, Longleat, Monkey World, Wookey Hole and many more.

What makes this property unique

The barn includes membership of a members only food and wine store, just a short walk through the grounds of Compton House which was once a silk farm that produced the silk for Princess Diana's wedding dress. The food store offers food and wine tasting events at various times during the year. They stock a fantastic selection of wine, cheese and meat along with home made ready meals and gifts.
