Ringwood 3.8 miles. Little Lions Farm is a pet-friendly cottage situated in Ashley Heath, Dorset.

This property is well-positioned to nearby attractions and amenities – with private driveway parking for four cars, Little Lions Farm is idyllic for a family and three dutiful dogs on a Dorset escape. Step into your new haven after a successful day of scenic treks through the countryside, with nearby access to the Castleman Trailway and follow the exposed beams throughout the cottage to kick up your feet in the sitting room beside the log burner. Whip up a delicious dinner in the kitchen, equipped with electric oven & hob, microwave, and fridge/freezer, then dig in at a wooden dining table for five beside a rustic log burner in the dining room. The dishwasher is on clean-up duty, so you’re free to soak up the last few rays of sunlight with your pups in the enclosed garden. Rinse off in the bath or walk-in shower, while the washing machine takes care of your laundry, before curling up in a double, twin, or single bed. Soak up your local surroundings and treat the kids to a day at Go Ape Moors Valley, visit the Moors Valley Railway, then grab a bite to eat at the local pub – less than a mile from your property! Venture a little further afield for Bournemouth to indulge in a beach day at Bournemouth Beach, dive deeper at the Oceanarium aquarium, stroll the Bournemouth Pier, then catch a show at Bournemouth Pavilion Theatre. Take that short drive to Poole for Poole Quay, treat the history buff to the RNLI Poole Old Lifeboat Museum, and relax with some entertainment at the Lighthouse, Poole’s Centre for the Arts. Dorset is full of lovely beaches and the Poole beaches are the closest, with Studland, Corfe Castle and Weymouth further afield. Countryside and seaside adventures sit at your doorstep when you book a stay at Little Lions Farm.
