Step inside and you’ll find a spacious open-plan living area, where cooking, dining, and relaxing flow together under one roof. The kitchen is well-equipped for lazy breakfasts or evening meals, while the electric wood burner adds a gentle warmth to the living space, perfect for unwinding after a day outdoors. There are two comfortable bedrooms, one with a kingsize bed, the other a twin that can be set up as a super king if preferred. Both have their own en-suite shower rooms, offering privacy and a touch of comfort for families or couples sharing. Outside your door, eight acres of grounds invite you to explore. Once part of the old Furley Estate, Goodmans House sits on a sloping westerly hillside, offering breathtaking views across the country that stretch into two neighbouring counties. The grounds are full of quiet charm—open fields, winding paths through wooded areas, and two large ponds that mirror the sky and attract birds and wildlife. Near the Duck Pond, a fire pit and picnic table create the perfect spot for an outdoor meal or an evening under the stars.
One of the highlights of the grounds is the Walled Garden with the Orangery. Light-filled and tastefully furnished, it’s a wonderful space to enjoy a drink, read a book, or share a moment with friends. Benches and gazebos are dotted throughout the gardens, each offering its own special view or a quiet corner to relax. Though the setting is wonderfully quiet and secluded, you’re only five miles from Axminster and Chard with their independent shops and eateries, and just eleven miles from the dramatic Jurassic Coast at Lyme Regis—where clifftop walks, fossil hunting, and sea air await.
These properties can be booked together to accommodate up to 14 guests.
